Is it also safe to drink Yogi Green Tea while pregnant? Curious because I know it attacks fat cells so I would like to know if it effects my baby also. Thank you!

It is better to avoid it.

The safety of herbal products like Yogi green tea has not been studied well during pregnancy. Its effect on the baby is not known. So it is better to avoid taking any such products during pregnancy.
Hope my answer is helpful.
