Caffeinated Teas
Black Tea. In my opinion this is the best tasting of the caffeinated teas, especially with a splash of organic cream, probably because it has the closest flavor profile to coffee, which I love and it has the highest caffeine content. It’s made with fermented tea leaves and studies have shown that it can protect lungs from damage caused by exposure to cigarette smoke.
Green Tea. Known as a powerful healing tea its high antioxidant levels may even interfere with the growth of cancer – including bladder, breast, lung, stomach and colorectal. It may also counteract oxidative stress on the brain which can reduce the risk of neurological disorders, like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s, and can even prevent clogged arteries while burning fat.
White Tea. This tea has a much milder flavor and less caffeine but it has higher levels of antioxidants than green or black tea. A study found white tea to have the most powerful anticancer properties when compared to more processed teas and it may help improve glucose tolerance and reduce LDL cholesterol.
Non-caffineated Healing Tea

It also helps with indigestion and has anti-inflamatory and antibacterial properties that can help reduce stomach cramps, stomach ache, bloating, gas heartburn.
