How can tea be a healthy beverage if it contains caffeine?
Caffeine in moderation can actually be good for you. It stimulates the nervous system and promotes blood circulation. It also works as a digestive after a heavy or greasy meal.Caffeine increases the body's metabolism for up to four hours, which may be part of tea's weight loss attributes (don't drink your tea with sugar if your intention is weight loss).
You can also decaffeinate your own tea. can read how to decaf here http://www.teacuppa.com/tealibrary.asp?i...
