Coffee vs tea: the health benefits
A question arises: which beverage is better for health? Coffee or tea? Which antioxidant provides a better life?
In an interview with HT Lifestyle, Dr Subrata Das, HOD – Internal Medicine and Diabetology at Sakra World Hospital in Bengaluru, shared, as reported also in the Hindustan Times: “Tea and coffee both offer health benefits due to their caffeine and antioxidants, improving energy levels, and mental alertness, and potentially aiding in weight loss”.
“Tea, rich in L-Theanine, is calming and promotes relaxation and hydration, helping with stress reduction and sleep. Coffee, with more caffeine, provides a quick energy boost, enhances physical performance, reduces the risk of chronic diseases like Type 2 diabetes and Alzheimer’s, and boosts metabolism.”
