Iced Tea is very Delicious!

Lately I have been drinking a lot of iced tea. It’s really good and also gives me the added energy that I need so much! It’s low on sugar (I only add a little for flavor) and also has antioxidants! I really enjoy tea much more when it is chilled than when it’s hot.. and I have been making it by the pitcher  so that I don’t need to make a cup every time that I want some.

I always knew that tea was good for you but I recently learned a lot more in depth about things it does for you including how it helps in aging, arthritis, allergies, bone strength, heart disease, cholesterol, cancer and even weight loss. Sounds awesome to me, I’m drinking something I like and I’m benefiting from it. I still refuse to give anything with caffeine in it to children but it might be okay to introduce to them when they are much older. I would consider decaffeinated tea but then I just learned that during the natural CO-2 process they use to decaffeinate the tea it actually loses like 90% of the cancer fighting properties that it has.
