Can someone get drunk on tea?
Tea is great for an energy boost. It’s also good for the digestive and nervous systems. Tea lovers often describe tea as being able to improve one’s mood and help reduce stress. In fact, many tea drinkers enjoy a condition known as being “tea drunk” or “tea high,” which changes how people feel physically, mentally, or emotionally.
In fact, being tea drunk isn’t dangerous like being drunk on alcohol. It’s simply a feeling of being very calm, relaxed, and happy. It’s a positive sensation that can contribute to lively interaction among friends or deep thinking when one is alone. Many tea drinkers also feel more productive and focused when working in a tea drunk state.
In addition to caffeine, tea also contains two other substances that can influence brain activity: catechins and L-theanine. Catechins naturally relax the brain and body. As for L-theanine, it is an amino acid that can reduce stress. When absorbed by the body, catechins and L-theanine make a person feel not only calm but also alert.
