Green tea will increase the levels of norepinephrine and dopamine in the brain.
The brain uses an enzyme called COMT to eat up dopamine and norepinephrine in the brain. When you drink green tea, you supress COMT, ie. you supress the brain's ability to eat up norepinephrine and dopamine thus leaving more in the brain.
