Question: Decaf green tea vs!. regular!?
Does decaf green tea have all the health benefits of regular green tea!?Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
Is decaffeinated tea as healthful as regular!?

No one knows!. The studies suggesting health benefits have looked at people who drink a lot of regular tea, not decaf!. The benefits apparently come from antioxidant compounds called flavonoids!. Decaf tea generally contains less of these, though flavonoid content varies widely among teas, so it is hard to predict

It really depends!.

Some people just don't need or want extra caffeine!. We do need some as it does help transport sugar throughout the body!. However, it also dehydrates the body as well!.

As long as you get what you need a caffeine free drink might be wise!. Some people can only have just a little bit and I have actually met someone that is allergic to caffeine!. also pregnant ladies should reduce their caffeine intake!.

If it is a problem for you health wise I am certain your doctor has already addressed the issue with you!. Otherwise just use your judgement if you think you need caffeine free or not!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Yes!. Same or marginally less flavanoids / anti-oxidants, but definitely much less caffeine!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

decaf is healthier -caffeine is a drug that can be cardiotoxic!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
