When trying to avoid these heavily caffeinated drinks, people often face issues of not having easy sources of energy whenever they need it. This can be battled with herbal teas, which consist of chamomile, a herb that relaxes the nerves. Even if taste were to be a problem from avoiding these caffeinated drinks, people have found success in switching to decaf alternatives.
