Yes, it’s entirely possible that you’re experiencing the effects of overconsumption of Aswin’s Maya Black Tea. Black tea, like other caffeinated beverages, can stimulate the nervous system, leading to the kind of jitteriness and heart palpitations you’ve described. If you’re feeling such symptoms after drinking three cups, it might be a signal from your body that you need to cut back a bit.
Black tea contains caffeine and tannins, both of which can sometimes lead to digestive issues, possibly explaining your stomach upset. In the context of Ayurveda, if you’ve recently developed a vata imbalance—perhaps due to your hectic lifestyle—the stimulating properties of large amounts of black tea may exacerbate vata-related symptoms like jitteriness or digestive discomfort.
Consider gradually reducing your intake to one or two cups a day, and observe if your symptoms improve. Also, try to drink it mid-morning after breakfast rather than on an empty stomach, as this can greatly reduce digestive discomfort. If you still crave tea, experiment with herbal teas that cater to your dosha balance—ginger tea can be a great alternative, especially in cooler months.
Additionally, bringing balance through diet and lifestyle can also help manage energy levels. Prioritize wholesome, warm meals at regular intervals, and find a few moments daily to practice deep breathing or a calming activity to counterbalance hectic job demands. This holistic approach might help reset the fatigue and reframe your tea consumption as a positive routine.
If symptoms persist, it may be worthwhile consulting with a healthcare professional for a comprehensive assessment of your fatigue and overall health.
