Last Updated: 2025/12/27, Which is healthier, coffee or tea? There is no need to argue. Coffee and tea are among the top three drinks in the world, and they must be healthy, otherwise human beings would not drink so much. However, since this question has been raised and answered, we might as well listen to it.

Coffee has been respected for centuries because it makes people energetic, and coffee is really good for people's health. Coffee promotes blood circulation in the brain, reduces mental fatigue, and awakens the brain.

However, when someone compares coffee with tea, that is, which is healthier, it cannot be generalized.

In most cases, coffee is healthier. Because most tea drinkers drink black tea (black), there is no doubt that the natural compounds in coffee are particularly beneficial to the human body.

Drinking two large cups of coffee or 300 milliliters of coffee a day can improve your depression. Drinking coffee reduces the risk of Parkinson's disease-coffee drinkers have a three to six times lower risk of Parkinson's disease than non-coffee drinkers, and people who drink more coffee from 4 ounces to 24 ounces a day have a lower risk of developing the disease. Human studies on the chemical properties of coffee have found that a cup of coffee contains powerful antioxidants that can inhibit the aging of human cells. Oxidative damage is associated with diabetes, arthritis, cancer and many other health problems, while antioxidants help reduce the risk of certain diseases.

Coffee contains high levels of flavonoid antioxidants, which help protect people against cardiovascular disease by lowering LDL cholesterol, or "bad" cholesterol, so coffee can also prevent heart attacks and strokes.

Coffee is known to stimulate intestinal peristalsis and reduce the risk of digestive disorders-such as gallstones and cirrhosis. In particular, coffee has the effect of preventing colon and rectal cancer.

Coffee is safe even for pregnant women. Moderate consumption of coffee does not increase the risk of miscarriage, and there is no clear evidence that coffee can lead to defects such as slow fetal growth or fetal malformations.

But if you drink green tea, that is, unfermented tea, then I have to say that green tea is a healthier drink-it is rich in flavonoid antioxidants. As soon as the tea is fermented, its flavonoid antioxidants are lost.

So, in short, which is better or worse, coffee or tea?

The answer is: as far as coffee and black tea are concerned, drinking coffee is a better choice; if you drink green tea, green tea is healthier.
