Coffee or Tea?

It's a simple question, but one which may have a huge impact on your overall energy level throughout the day and potentially your long-term health. A study has shown that while drinking coffee in the morning may give you a quick energy fix in the long run it will leave you tired and groggy. The study suggests that drinking tea, which has less caffeine, throughout the day provides energy for the entire day as opposed to a quick boost.

As far as long-term health benefits? Tea has more than coffee without negative impacts on health. (this has been shown mostly in white and green teas)
