∙ 12y agoYes if you're an insect, No if you're a human. Caffeine is bad for insects, it protects the plant, but is stimulating for people. Remember even table salt in large amounts can be dangerous. Drink sensible amounts of tea, a few cups a day, or a basic tea pot's worth and you'll be fine. If a person tries to drink an oil drum full of tea in one day they're likely to have problems.

Should you avoid black tea while pregnant?
No, but it is probably best to avoid very large amounts of tea. Black tea, like other types of tea (including green and white tea) contains caffeine, and very high amounts of caffeine can have a harmful effect on a pregnancy, such as increasing the risk of miscarriage. The amount of caffeine in tea though is very low, and depending on how strong the tea is, 3-5 cups would be completely safe. Even if you are drinking more tea than this, it's not anywhere near as harmful as, say, smoking or heavy alcohol use. It's not worth worrying about.
