Tea can also impede the absorption of iron from fruits and vegetables. Adding lemon or milk to your tea or drinking it between meals will counteract this problem. Tea also contains caffeine, albeit in smaller amounts than coffee.
Drinking a cup of tea a few times a day may be a pleasant way to consume antioxidants and other healthful plant compounds. In green tea-drinking cultures, the usual amount is three cups per day. Three to five minutes of steeping is enough to bring out the catechins.
Drinking tea is generally safe, with a few caveats. In large amounts, it can interfere with blood clotting and thus may interact with the drug warfarin (Coumadin) and other blood thinners.
