[QUOTE="Bluetit1802, post: 659554, member: 94045"] Hi Ally, Good idea to conduct an experiment. Well done. The tea contains caffeine, which does raise levels in some people, as might the dash of milk in the tea. However, you have to balance this against being deprived of a cup of tea forever more! Have you tried decaffeinated tea, or herbal teas like Green tea? No? I don't blame you. I hate them, but many on here like them, so you could give them a try. Another thing you could do is to try to make your tea a little bit less strong. The weaker the tea, the less caffeine. You could also cut down the number of cuppas you have. Try cold water a couple of times instead. Having said all that, the amount of difference a cuppa tea makes, in my opinion, is negligible. Also consider that your two identical meals might have produced a different result even without the tea. I never get the same results with identical meals, no matter how careful I am to make sure it is identical. [/QUOTE]
