Is it tea or coffe for you?

I usually like coffee more than tea as it nice taste. When i earlier used to work in a call centre, i used to drink 3-4 cups of coffee in the breaks available. But now it is the summer season going on, so i go mostly juices or milkshakes, also cold-drinks for a change if i am outside somewhere.

I prefer tea (Green Tea), and coffee and tea can have effects on your health, in both positive and negative ways. The Chinese have known about the medicinal benefits of green tea since ancient times, using it to treat everything from headaches to depression.

Also scientific research in both Asia and the west is providing hard evidence for the health benefits long associated with drinking green tea. For example, study indicating that drinking green tea reduced the risk of esophageal cancer in Chinese men and women by nearly sixty percent. There is also research indicating that drinking green tea lowers total cholesterol levels, as well as improving the ratio of good cholesterol to bad cholesterol.

To sum up, here are just a few medical conditions in which drinking green tea is reputed to be helpful: cancer, rheumatoid arthritis, high cholesterol levels, cardiovascular disease, infection, impaired immune function.

The only negative effect for me for the tea or coffee is, it doesn't make me sleep easily due to the fact that it contains caffeine. However, green tea contains less caffeine than coffee, that's why i prefer Tea or Coffee.

I like both. It depends on my mood.

I prefer tea than coffee.A glass of hot tea early in the morning is a must for me.I feel very bad with tea in the morning.Daily i drink two glass of tea,one in the morning and one in the evening.I rarely drink coffee.I like to take coffee from the restaurant.The medicinal value of tea far better than coffee.Black tea is good for head ache and reliving tension.I think it is the simple drink preferred by people around the world.
Tea leaf contains ingredients like water, caffeine, albumin,soluble substances, toxic substances, dectrine, pectic acid and pictine, tannic acid, chlorophyll and raisin, cellulose and salt.The toxic elements in tea secretly and gradually affect the body parts, but permanently damage them. It makes the drinker addicted.
Tannin is used in tannery to make leather soft and shining. Tannin blocks the orifices of tiny cells in the body, which absorbs nutrient from eaten food. When tannin reaches stomach it disturbs the secretion of juices for digestion of food. The consequence is indigestion, constipation that affects liver. Since tannin’s effect is to dry up watery contents in the body, the skin also becomes rough and brittle. Its mental effect is similar to alcohol or a narcotic drug, which gives a kick for a shorter duration and thereafter, gives rise to lethargy and listlessness. This makes one to gulp another cup of tea to regain earlier euphoria. This leads to addiction and usually these persons feel drowsy and morose if they do not get their cuppa to stimulate them.
Caffeine is like nicotine in tobacco and is a dreadful poison, which causes gout and windy diseases. Excessive intake of tea or coffee enhances the quantity of urine and the kidney is heavily loaded. A person addicted to tea passes three times more urine than a healthy person. But the toxic substance does not go out with urine but gets solidified to form uric acid, which in turn gets deposited in joints to cause gout and arthritis.
