This is only my opinion and my experience with caffeine. This is BS! If it were true I would not have to had DBS in April of this year to control tremor.

Default Caffeine and PD...

Just 1/2 cup coffee gives me such jitters that I gave up on it after many years of 2-4 cups a day.

Wonder whether the test subjects were tranquilized first.

You're probably at least as well off though, taking Dopavite, which contains nicotinamide, but no stimulants.
