What's a healthy type of tea that won't stain your teeth?!


Question:

What's a healthy type of tea that won't stain your teeth?

I've heard that teas can be good for you, but I'm no tea expert and I'd like to start drinking tea that won't 1) have caffine in it or 2) stain my teeth. Any ideas?


Answers:
Green tea or White teas.

White tea is similar to green tea, in that it's undergone very little processing and no fermentation. But there is a noticable difference in taste. Most green teas have a distinctive 'grassy' taste to them, but white tea does not. The flavour is described as light, and sweet. You should steep white tea in water that is below the boiling point.

If you are drinking tea for your health, you may want to consider white teas. There is also considerably less caffeine in white tea than the other varieties (15mg per serving, compared to 40mg for black tea, and 20mg for green). Some studies have also shown that white tea contains more active cancer-fighting antioxidants than green tea.

As with all teas, there are many varieties of white tea, with poetic names such as: white peony, golden moon, silver needle and white cloud. White teas are produced mostly in China and Japan, but the Darjeeling region of India also produces some fine white teas.

Camomille or green tea

you could try green tea or any other herbal tea just read the label as some may have some caffeine

green tea with lemon in it. but be careful if you're hypotensive patient, it lowers blood pressure much.

They have lots of different flavored herbal teas that have zero calories and don't stain your teeth. Green tea is very good for you becuase it has many health benefits; however, if you don't brush your teeth right away after drinking it, it will stain your teeth.

green or white tea will not stain your teeth, but have caffeine in them.
Go for an herbal tea or look for decaffinated green tea.

Herbals fit both of your criteria.

But green tea is from the same type of plant as is black tea. It's simply the unfermented version of black tea, so it does contain caffeine, just in smaller amounts than does black tea.

i didnt know tea stained teeth, but i think english tea is good...its very simple to make.

You can try this trick...if you're drinking tea, use a straw and place it just past your teeth into your mouth...cuts down on the staining...
