Teen's 'scary' matcha habit: £2K, four cups a day, and a dark room

Isabella Wilson, 19, a retail assistant and former matcha barista from Bolton, drank up to four matchas a day through 2025, hitting roughly 400mg of caffeine daily — about five Red Bulls — and spent £2,000 in a year, sometimes sourcing discounted powder from a seller on Vinted. She developed near-daily migraines, weekly vomiting, acne and a two-stone weight gain. After cutting back to two matchas a week in January, her symptoms eased within days, though she went through dizziness and cravings. She now goes to the gym, eats properly, and drinks matcha only occasionally.
