"Traditional tea contains antioxidants and offers health benefits, such as cancer prevention and cholesterol reduction," says Lisa Andrews.
"Green tea, along with other types of tea, is a source of various polyphenols. The polyphenols in tea leaves provide antioxidants," explains Wan Na Chun. "It can significantly inhibit the absorption of fats in the intestine, which is beneficial for reducing cholesterol," he continues.
Still, you should consume it regularly, but not excessively. "Drinking excessive amounts of caffeinated tea can cause side effects such as headaches, insomnia, irritability, dizziness and anxiety," he explains.
