Default Ice Tea
Tea is packed with one specific kind of antioxidant - polyphenols. Compared to both vegetables and fruits, tea has 8 to 10 times more polyphenols. Catechins, a flavanoid and antioxidant, holds the key to the health benefits of drinking tea. Because tea is made through steeping, the longer you steep the tea, the more catechins are released and the more benefits to your body.

I love green tea and I make sure that I have enough intake everyday. It really makes me stay thin and a healthy way of having a clear skin

Remember though that you consume just the right amount because there are also some disadvantages if you drink too much.

That is right. Drinking too much of tea everyday is not good because it can cause:
  • restlessness
  • irritability
  • sleeping problems
  • tremor
  • heart palpitations
  • loss of appetite
  • upset stomach
  • nausea
  • frequent urination
  • skin rash

The reason behind this is that tea contains half the caffeine found in coffee that is why minimal consumption is advised.

Just like coffee, tea also contains caffeine and too much of it could be harmful to your body such as decreases memory enzyme or can even damage your DNA. Tea is good for your body but drink them in moderation to avoid harmful effects.

It's advisable to drink plenty of water when you're drinking tea. I heard that caffeine is a duiretic too which causes our body to flush more fluids and cause dehydration. However, I've also read some articles that says its duiretic effects is minimal just like water. Anyway, let's just drink plenty of water just to be sure. It won't hurt if we did. =D
