Tea is made up of caffeine, tannins, amino acids and proteins with trace elements and vitamins niacin, B1 and B2. Those trace elements and minerals include fluoride, potassium, calcium and manganese. Coupled with its anti-bacterial properties, a good cuppa may just be the mouth health beverage of choice.
Tea owes its stimulatory effect to its caffeine content: unlike coffee or sodas the caffeine in tea does not act on the circulation via the heart, however, but directly on the brain and central nervous system. Its caffeine is bonded to the tannins and is not released until it reaches the intestine. This explains the demonstrable capacity of tea to increase concentration and responsiveness without all the jitters and subsequent crash of other caffeinated drinks.
