    Nate Hodges [A1AQHR31NR4J6N] Quick Survey Friday, October 27, 2017 - $3.00

    Pros: 12 minutes of it is passive video watching, which is the only saving grace to the completion time.
    The content is legitimately interesting.
    Cons: As with every other Nate, the layout is a sight to behold in the worst way. Button layouts are clumsy with no label/radio attachments to make selections easier or any thought put in beyond throwing inputs at the page.

    Had to rewatch content more than once with no warning that was going to be the case.

    It makes absolutely zero difference.

    The outcome is identical, since it's ultimately driven by adrenaline.

    Some teas are also remarkably caffeine-heavy FWIW, but regardless, the only difference is the strength of the effect.

    The point is that caffeine doesn't actually have any direct stimulating effect on your body. It just causes a chain reaction.

    Huh. I haven't noticed that happening, but then again, I haven't paid any attention to the procedure numbers so I know nothing.

    Theanine is an amino acid that's mostly found in green tea. I actually take it as a supplement alongside caffeine because it evens out the jitters for me and helps me focus.

    Edit: My mistake. I misread your post. <3

    A research study in 2011 showed that regular brewed black tea contains significantly more L-theanine per cup when compared to commercially available green tea (24 mg versus 8 mg per cup).

    Caffeine's role as an adenosine antagonist is also why you crash so hard afterwards:

    While caffeine is plugging the holes it's supposed to go into, your body is building a backlog of pent-up adeonsine which surges into the "ports" as soon as the caffeine is gone:

    https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20164566

    So all of the "mild drowsiness" you're supposed to naturally feel at certain times of day chemically hit you all at once.

    To be fair, who the fork thought "Theanine" and "Theine" were good choices for different things.
