However this research has shown that drinking tea is possibly more beneficial to the body, while it puts liquid into the body tea also is loaded with antioxidants. Water of course does not have antioxidants to add to its replenishment of the body.

Some of the research that has been done with tea and its antioxidants have given some proof that it may help to guard against certain types of cancer, weight loss and it may even help protect against the onset of Alzheimer's, along with other diseases.

There has also been research done into the types of antioxidants in black tea and green tea, while they both have antioxidants they are different types of antioxidants and are equally healthy for the body and guarding against disease. This of course was not a large surprise in the research as both teas come from different plants and are processed differently.

And although there is no real consensus among health professionals regarding tea people experts believe that green tea tends to be better overall for one's health health and wellness than black tea, even though they are both jam packed with antioxidant power.

There have been some reports (not confirmed by the ultimate authority the Food and Drug Administration) that grean tea is also good for your heart and may even help you lose weight.
