There are also teas that you may not know like Rooibos or white tea that have very low caffeine and aren't bitter at all (like black tea would be). What about something like cranberry juice?

When I asked him to explain in layman’s terms he said, "Well, we give her a dose of caffeine." I said, "That's it?" And he said, "Yup. It speeds up her heart rate and respiration so she's less likely to forget to breathe and set off the alarms." And that's the only time I think you'll hear a doctor prescribe you caffeine, which by the way, costs like $50 a dose when in a hospital.
