This is because along with caffeine, tea contains some related stimulates that interact synergistically with caffeine but also mildly relax the very same muscles that feel jittery | |

Caffeine consumption is definitely something worth considering, and making a conscious choice about; it can really go either way. For some people, it does wonders; for others, it does more harm than good! | |
