General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello, consumption of green tea provides antioxidants which will help you rejuvenate yourself. It is not a supplement for multivitamins. There is no harm in consuming both green tea and multivitamin tablets.
Over enthusiastic multivitamin tablet consumption should be avoided. They help when taken in adequate amount.
So you can start with green tea while you still consume multivitamins.
