Are you reading for today’s exciting head-to-head match up?
It’s an age old debate among many coffee and tea drinkers, which one is better? I won’t lie, I am a partial judge and I’ll be voting for coffee no matter what this “caffeinating” infographic tells me. Still, for the rest of you, you might want to see a short 3 round fight!
Round 1- Tea crushes coffee on the annual sales, accounting for some 550,000 pounds of sales in the UK to coffee‘s 270,000 pounds.
Round 2- Tea wins in terms of health. While coffee has been linked to preventing Alzheimer’s disease, tea is rich in anti-oxidants and may even help prevent obesity!
Round 3- Coffee has far more caffeine than even the strongest tea. And since most people drink coffee or tea as a “wake me up,” we are going to award this round to coffee!
Well, it looks like tea wins according to the infographic! Admittedly, however, both tea and coffee can be healthy for you in moderation. It’s just a question of self-control. Caffeine, for example, has numerous positive health effects, such as increasing short-term memory and guarding against liver cancer. Still, if you use too much, it can be bad for your health!
