well white tea has more antioxidants than green tea. The reason is that white tea leaves are 'younger' than the green tea leaves, and sometimes buds are used as well. In other words they are harvested sooner than green tea leaves.
Green tea is from the unfermented opened leaves of the tea plant (the youngest leaves make the best quality teas, the older leaves are the commercial grades). White tea is from the unfurled leaves or buds taken from the tips of the branches tea plant. White tea is reputed to have more anti-oxidants and better medicinal qualities than green tea.

the difference in the taste is also very different than the actual leaves. Green tea has a "woodsy" flavor to it, and white tea has a subtle sweet taste, in my opinion. white teas are usually flavored with hints of any fruit flavor. There is also a difference in the antioxidant and EGCG contents of both teas. Im not sure off hand what it is, but I believe that white tea is higher in both. good luck
