Dunno, but I think my body is relieved that's it's not another caffeinated beverage!

Apparent Rooibos contains polyphenols, including flavanols, flavones, flavanones, dihydrochalcones,  aspalathin and nothofagin and the processed leaves and stems contain benzoic and cinnamic acids.
All of which I assume are better than caffeine.

The main health benefit of tea is dealing with water-borne diseases like cholera and dysentery.

It has been noted that genetically, Europeans tend to have higher tolerance to alcohol than Asian. One Asian commented that:
- Traditionally, Europeans dealt with water-borne diseases by drinking wine or beer (the alcohol kills the bugs)
- Traditionally, Asians dealt with water-borne diseases by drinking tea (the temperature kills the bugs)

Definitely. Raspberry leaf tea has the same substances as Aspirin. You can even get acylate poisoning from too concentrated raspberry leaf tea.. (don't try this your self. The vision changes, goes a little greenish, you feel weak etc. Lasts for a couple of hours, depending on the concentration).

There are other teas which can improve your nausea (etc. pepper mint tea).
A couple of green tea glasses can fulfill 75% of your daily norm anti-oxidants.

Wise traditional medicine internist chose to give their children natural teas rather than ibuprofen or other tablets.

Drinking green is one of the best way of keeping yourself healthy since it contains many healthy elements that helps to fight different health issues. Men facing the problem of impotence prefer to buy <<<<SPAM REMOVED>>>> online to overcome this problem but this can be treated with healthy eating habits which included drinking green tea.

Hello everybody. There has already been written a lot about the benefits of tea. I also want to add a few more. I know that people who drank 2 or more cups of tea a day, reduced the risk of a stroke.
Enjoy a cup of tea a day. Both green and black varieties are rich in a number of compounds that are further studied for their potentially positive effects on a number of diseases.
Studies conducted in this regard represent their views both in favor and against tea. some agree that tea is not good for health, while others completely disagree with this. some say that tea has antioxidants and vitamins that produce good effects on the immune system, but tea with milk is not beneficial. tea without milk improves the vascular system. Adding milk to tea takes advantage of it. It is difficult to draw a decisive conclusion. However, tea should be taken in moderation during the day.
Adding fragrances and excessive sugar to bubble tea can make it an unhealthy drink. Therefore, it is necessary to avoid too much purified sugar and flavors and keep it natural. Pearl tapioca is filled with nutrients such as protein, vitamin K and calcium, and potassium
You can mix fresh fruit with tea, which is seasonal and healthy, which can include banana, mango and watermelon among others. Try not to add sugar, because the fruits will bring natural sweetness. Thus, you can control the consumption of calories.
I think tea is the second most safe drink. In the first place, of course, water.

recently found out about medicinal teas.

If you want tea, drink tea.
If you want medicine, go to a pharmacist or doctor.

acylate poisoning

That phrase has no  meaning.

Raspberry leaf tea has the same substances as Aspirin.

Plainly wrong.
For a start aspirin is only 1 substance so "the same substances as Aspirin" makes no sense.
For an finish there is no aspirin in raspberry leaf tea.

Why do you post this sort of stuff?

There's very little evidence that taking anything other than the normal antioxidant vitamins in normal quantities are actually good for you, and there are common circumstances in which taking too much has been found to be actively harmful.

Oxidation is a necessary part of metabolism and the immune system, and taking large doses of chemicals to oppose that does not, in general, seem to be very wise.

Ive heard H2O is hard to beat, boiled or chilled. It isnt a stimulant or anything bad, why add toxins to it?

I think there is no proper health benefits of tea but still it may be useful to work against headache.

"Tea is calorie-free." this is clearly wrong tea as normally drunk in the UK has milk and sugar added both sources of calories

Tea, especially green tea, is a rich source of flavonoids, a bioactive compound that can reduce oxidative stress, alleviate inflammation and promote other health benefits, the study said. She warned that more research is required to see what results in adults China will take effect for people outside of East Asia.

Different types of teas have different benefits. Like green tea is good for weight loss, black tea improves heart health and boosts immunity, herbal tea is beneficial for treating colds, etc

... or not, according to actual evidence.
But, in this weather (here in the UK its about 30C) anything that encourages people to drink water is a good thing.
