If we try to think about the most consumed drink in the world, then tea will come second to none but water. Interestingly, all types of tea, be it green or black, comes from the same plant i.e. Camellia sinensis. The difference only lies in processing and oxidation that makes the difference. Without adding anything to it, tea or it?s leaves contain hardly any calories, fat, sodium, carbonation or sugar. Tea contains antioxidants and is known to have many health benefits, including reducing the incidence of diabetes. GREEN TEA�-Green tea leaves do not undergo fermentation and hence, don?t go through the oxidation process which black tea undergoes. This retains an extremely rich amount of EGCG (epigallactocatechin gallate), a popular antioxidant known for fighting heart disease, strokes, cancer and more. BLACK TEA�-The EGCG in black tea is destroyed during the fermentation process which makes it low in this powerful anti-oxidation.
