I've always found that tea, not coffee, has enabled me to concentrate more clearly on the task at hand..

People with flagging focus might, however, get more bang for their buck with a cup of tea. A 2007 study conducted by Doctor Foxe found that theanine and caffeine synergise to boost the activity of brain neurons.

      Thanks for this. I didn't have any data other than what I experienced. With coffee I just feel energized but that energy isn't directed. With good tea (the loose leaf kind) I feel both energized and focused. I could never explain it but the article above might be the reason.
