Tea contains powerful flavonoids and antioxidants – phytonutrients that defend against cell damage and prevent blood clot formation, atherosclerosis and cancer. Perhaps the greatest benefit of tea is its calming effect with no added calories. Choosing herbal or green tea eliminates the need for adding cream and sugar.
Tip: If you’re trying to limit your caffeine intake, switch to decaf tea – the removal of caffeine has no effect on the level of beneficial flavonoids.
