Health Benefits Of Tea

Traditional tea contains polyphenols including catechins, flavonoids, and tannins.
Polyphenols are plant-based chemicals that may provide health benefits. Researchers have linked consumption of flavonoids, in particular, to outcomes including a reduced risk of cancer and all-cause mortality in certain populations. However, scientists advise that more research is needed to say for certain if flavonoids can provide these benefits.
Some studies have also linked tea drinking to outcomes including improved sleep and reduced stress. But it can often be hard to determine if tea drinking causes people to become more relaxed and sleep better or if people who tend to be more relaxed are also people who tend to enjoy tea.
 But tea does contain L-theanine, a compound that is used for stress and anxiety relief.
Lastly, tea is also linked to mental alertness and improved productivity. Tea contains caffeine which can increase alertness. But it can also create a jittery or nervous feeling. Darker tea, like black tea, usually (but not always) contains more caffeine. Whether or not you get a positive or negative benefit from caffeine can depend on your own level of sensitivity. In general, tea contains about half as much caffeine as a cup of coffee.
