Consider these health benefits of tea and the next time you have to choose. Tea is officially awesome for your health. But before loading up your cup, make sure that your “tea” is actually tea.

The real tea may lack in variety but it makes up for with serious health benefits. Most people know about tea’s health properties of antioxidant.
