I bought some NOW green tea pills and it says not to take on empty stomach and just one a day. Most usually recommend taking 3-6 pills a day and what's the beef taking on empty stomach? Can I just ignore these?

not sure about the empty stomach thing, but the dosages is usually pretty conservative on gt pills. how big are the pills? 500mg? that probably is a decnt size for a normal person. i would stick to the 1.5g-2g range.

Siberian is an unknown quantity at this point
I shoot for a minimum of 3-4 cups a day or equivalent amount in extract, and usually get closer to 5-7. I prefer to drink the stuff, mostly because I like the taste though.

A pound of decent sencha would run you about 5-7$ (loose leaf). I drink about 3L-6L of green tea daily. This lasts me about a month. Google The English Tea Store. They have it at the price I mentioned.
