I've tried looking this up...my grandma is drinking caffeine-free tea, but her heart has started pounding like it does when she has caffeine. She is wondering if something in it might have a little bit of caffeine in it....Anyone know???
 
Hmmm? I don't know, I wouldn't think so. I've never thought about it DQ. I'm going to go google it now and see what I can find.
 
Is she drinking decaf tea or herbal tea? Because I believe, like decaf coffee, decaf tea still has some caffeine in it. Herbal tea is caffeine free.
 
Excessive licorice consumption - Licorice contains substances known to raise blood pressure, although the exact amount a person would have to consume to have an effect on blood pressure is not fully researched.

So far I've found this...does a rise in blood pressure lead to increased heart rate?
 
Hmm...I don't think she drinks very much of it...not enough to be considered "excessive". Curious. Thanks for the help!
