NEASTEA -Iced tea ,lemon flavour ahhhhhhhh really fine does it effect health ,i like 2 have twice daily?!


Question: I loved tea also, and the biggest dreawback is the caffine that is is it and the sugar, but overall from what I can find it has severl benfits also..
Many of the health benefits of drinking tea come from the fact that tea contains high levels of antioxidants called polyphenols or flavonoids. These compounds are most prevalent in green and white teas, but are also present in varying degrees in Oolongs and black teas. In the processing of black teas another antioxidant is formed – theaflavin. This is weaker than the polyphenols in Green teas, but still performs antioxidant activities in laboratory experiments. Polyphenols scavenge cell-damaging free radicals, which are linked with cancer-causing genes and cause LDL cholesterol to form artery-clogging plaque. The polyphenols in tea possess 20 to 30 times the antioxidant potency of vitamins C and E. Antioxidants impair the ability of free radical cells to harm the molecules that make up our bodies.

twice daily should not affect health too much, perhaps u shld watch out for your sugar intake as such beverages have lotsa sugar in them..

i think NEASTEA isn't really tea. its just mainly water and sugar with some artificial flavoring in it. it might not have any effect now, but watch out in the long run.

mo, it does not do anything bad to your health.
