“Hello Ayusa Team, I just wanted to take a moment to reach out and share how much Ayusa tea has genuinely helped me. As someone living with ADHD and chronic illness, finding something that supports my energy levels without making my symptoms worse has always been incredibly difficult. Coffee has never worked well for me — it leaves me overstimulated, anxious, jittery, and usually followed by a crash that makes everything harder. Ayusa has been completely different. The energy it gives me feels calm, focused, and steady rather than overwhelming. I’m able to concentrate without feeling wired, there’s no crash afterward, and it doesn’t interfere with my sleep — something I’ve always struggled with when consuming caffeine. I also don’t experience the jitters or anxiety that I would normally get from coffee or other stimulants. Over the past almost six months, I’ve actually stopped taking my ADHD medication and have been using Ayusa tea instead, and it has been a really positive experience for me. I feel clear-headed, regulated, and supported throughout the day without feeling stressed or overstimulated. I work as a special needs teacher, so it’s essential for me to be alert, focused, and energetic, while also remaining calm, patient, and emotionally regulated. Ayusa has been incredible for this — it gives me the energy I need to do my job well without pushing my nervous system into overdrive. I genuinely feel more balanced and grounded when I use it. .”

“I’ve always loved tea but often wished I could get the energy charge that coffee drinkers talk about but without the inevitable downer. I was so happy to finally find a tea with slow release caffeine that gives me a boost of energy to hit the gym and beach and keep up with two very busy and social teens! I also find around 3pm I would need a lift that would previously leave me reaching for chocolate. Now instead I make a pot of Ayusa Tea and enjoy the ritual of this moment before the hectic afternoon starts with school runs, gym workouts, activities, dinner .... I can’t recommend Ayusa Tea enough! It is refreshing, hydrating, tastes great and the slow release caffeine is truly a game changer!.”
