Thread: Iced tea?

I drank lemon tea before bed and had a full on 15 minute lucid dream and I DIDN'T stablilize. You may be on to something.

Tea, especially black tea has a lot of L-Theanine I just learned.
It helps relax and sleep. It is often taken with Melatonin, Galantamine (& Choline):

Could people stop posting topics about the Lucid induction-potential of Pickles after they incidentally had a Lucid Dream after eating pickles the night before?

There is no solid grounds on which to assume Iced Tea has such an effect, unless you tried it serveral times before bedtime, without taking anything else and had a noticably more lucid/vivid dream than usual each time you did it.

Actually... Tea does affect dreams. For example, I am a heavy tea drinker. Over about a month I drink tea before bed.

Green tea is supposed to give a higher chance of LD's due to the ingredients in it. It might give me dreams but I sure have horrible recall after drinking it.

Lemon Tea- No evidence, that I know, but I had my first 15 min LD drinking it, probably just a coincidence .

Peppermint Tea- Not so much the tea but the smell of the peppermint has been proven to make you sleepy. Everytime I drink this I smell the steam before going to sleep and drink the tea of course, I Had a 2 min LD last night, and this tea has never failed me yet. I remembered about 6 dreams, I barely remember my lucid but I know I did the nose RC and rubbed my hands together.
