Tea

Both green tea and black tea appear to be low/no VA but I would appreciate opinions before I start consumption.

Green tea USDA report:

Black tea USDA report:

Dr G states that both should be fine. I drink black myself from time to time.

I think there is a small tea discussion in the milk alternatives thread below 🙂

Good to hear, I'll make a drink with green tea, honey and fresh squeezed white grapefruit juice for the fridge.

Just looking for a bit of clarification on the green tea situation.

I have been drinking it for the last few days and some websites say their anti oxidant properties come from beta-carotene. Do we still think Green tea is okay? Is the beta-carotene content so low that it won't make a difference to us?
