Tea or coffee? Find out which is the healthiest for your breakfast

As soon as we wake up in the morning, our first dilemmas arise, while a day with many challenges awaits us.

The first choice we face is whether to drink tea or coffee, as both have their benefits and drawbacks.

In general, the consumption of tea and coffee without milk and without sugar is considered healthier than with milk and sugar. Black coffee has more caffeine than black tea. If you have caffeine sensitivity or gastric problems due to caffeine, you should switch to black tea instead of black coffee.

Black coffee is said to reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes, help with weight management by improving metabolism and energy levels, and is even said to improve cognition and reduce the risks of Alzheimer's, writes 'NDTV Food'.

Black coffee can rev up the metabolism much better than black tea and is therefore the preferred source of caffeine for gym fractions. Tea also has a number of health benefits. For example, black tea lowers blood pressure, keeps blood sugar under control and even reduces the risk of strokes. Tea is rich in antioxidants that protect heart function and fight inflammation in the body.

So, if you're looking to get your body going quickly for an energizing morning, coffee can help you much better than tea. But if you need a caffeine fix that calms you and supplies your body with healing antioxidants, then choose black tea. Tea is also better than coffee for those prone to acidity, given that tea is milk and sugar-free. For more antioxidants, choose green tea and white tea.
