Herbal Tea vs Caffeine-Free Tea: Is there 100% caffeine-free tea and is herbal tea caffeine-free?

A 100% caffeine-free tea exists through certain herbal tea blends and infusions. The caffeine-free phrase is generally used to classify tea or any beverage that does not have a single percentage of caffeine in its natural composition. This essentially means that there is not caffeine in it to begin with. Herbal teas are mostly free from caffeine, yet a handful of herbal tea variations from yerba mate, yaupon, guarana, and guayusa do have some caffeine content. Herbal teas are high-level sources of natural detoxifying components, providing antioxidants to improve the immune system, boost energy, and promote calmness in each cup. Flavorful blends complemented by flowers, fruits, and other herbs also make these herbal beverages successful in the tea industry.

The effects of caffeine-free tea during pregnancy

Pregnant women are advised to limit their caffeine intake as the placenta absorbs this compound easily and passes through the fetus' liver. Keep in mind that the little one in mommy's womb still has developing organs that may not be able to break down certain substances their mother passes onto their system. Anything the mother eats or drinks to nourish herself and the baby is considered safe, but some can impose side effects on the new life. Caffeine is one of those compounds that may lead to higher risks of preterm deliveries, low birth weight, and birth deficiencies. For pregnant ladies who can't resist having a cup of tea even for a day, caffeine-free tea is going to be the safest for the unborn child. 

It should be noted that caffeine may not be the only factor that can affect pregnancy in regard to tea. Some herbs used in tea may also threaten to induce miscarriage, stimulate unwanted menstrual bleeding, and birth defects. Make sure you read up on the ingredients blended in making your preferred herbal tea to prevent possible negative effects you or your baby can inadvertently get from these herbs.
