Drink Tea

Sometime today try to drink some tea. Tea has incredible antioxidant capacity because of the phenols and polyphenols in it. White tea has the most antioxidants, followed by green, then black (which all come from the same plant, just picked at different times). Herbal teas also have a lot of antioxidants including red tea (Rooibos), blue eyes, blueberry, lavender, peppermint, and chamomile just to name a few. Teas that you would get at restaurants are good to, just processed more so not as good. Also, try to stay away from those "pre-made" green teas with artificial sweeteners in them. Good tea brands that come pre-made in a bottle are: Honest Tea and Teas' Tea just to name a couple. Have a great day and make sure to drink your tea!
