- Its 550 mg of green tea (2 rows of the label added together) is higher than 93% of the 2,595 green tea products that print an amount; 176 list more.
The NIH database records 1 to 2 servings a day from the label's directions; its % Daily Values are for adults and children 4 or more years of age. The directions as printed are further down this page.
