Which One the Best, Coffee or Tea?

A cup of steaming hot beverage always sounded pleasant in the morning. But which one, coffee or tea?

Either coffee or tea contains many antioxidants, therefore, no problem taking them in small portions. But the facts below may also sway your decision: in the tea contained something that can fight bad infection.

The content in question is L-theanine, an amino acid that encourages the immune response against bacteria, including one that causes food poisoning. Coffee, which does not contain L-theanine, shows no antibacterial activity in research.

Either black or green tea, all of them proved to have the correct dose in thwarting bacterial groupings. And the fragrance of steeping tea can give you other health benefits, too, helping your heart avoid the risk of cancer (especially in women). And although tea has lower caffeine content than coffee, tea remains to prove the same freshness as soda. Therefore, take a cup of tea!
