The Big Debate: Co몭ee vs Tea by Howard Davner | Jun 30, 2022 | Beverage Industry, Business, Howard Davner
Both co몭ee and tea are beverages with a long history, and both have their unique bene몭ts. Depending on your taste, you’ll 몭nd that either of these beverages can 몭ll you up, help you stay alert, and even help you lose weight. This article will discuss the di몭erences between co몭ee and tea, their bene몭ts, their risks, and which is healthier. Co몭ee acts as a central nervous system stimulant and bronchodilator, increasing blood 몭ow to the brain and lungs by dilating blood vessels. This action also increases your energy levels and alertness and reduces pain due to in몭ammation or damage to your nervous system. A cup of co몭ee contains about 100-120mg of ca몭eine which rivals a cup of co몭ee in energy-boosting e몭ects, although the ca몭eine content tends to be higher in tea than co몭ee. Tea may contain ca몭eine, but it is signi몭cantly less than that co몭ee. Tea is a diuretic, meaning it can help increase metabolism. It also stimulates the central nervous system, making it feel more alert. Tea also contains tannins and other substances to reduce joint pain and in몭ammation. A cup of tea may contain as little as 20mg of ca몭eine or 80mg in an 8oz cup of black tea. Tea also has other healthpromoting e몭ects, including anti-diabetic, anticoagulant (which can help prevent stroke),
and antiviral and anti-cancer properties.
Risks Most studies show that co몭ee and tea are relatively safe beverages to drink. However, the FDA has warned consumers not to consume more than 3-4 cups of co몭ee a day for people who are long-term users or have a medical condition (such as high blood pressure or heart disease). Additionally, excessive ca몭eine intake can cause anxiety and insomnia. To stay healthy, it’s best to consume co몭ee and tea in moderation. Limit consumption if you have high blood pressure, other medical conditions, or problems. Most studies show that drinking between 2-3 cups a day is safe.
Which is Healthier? The health bene몭ts of drinking black tea are signi몭cantly higher than drinking co몭ee A cup of black tea contains about 80 mg of ca몭eine, while a cup of co몭ee contains around 100mg. Surprisingly, teas are more bene몭cial to your health than co몭ee because this is mainly due to the antioxidants present in the leaves.
