The fall and winter seasons are gorgeous, busy, and tinged with nostalgia. Unfortunately, they also tend to be tinged with germs. If you’re hoping to avoid falling ill with the flu or even the common cold this season, consider drinking more tea. Research has shown that teas are full of things that are good for your health, including anti-inflammatory and immune-boosting antioxidants which may also protect you against things like cancer and heart disease. As a rule, teas contain less caffeine than coffee—that is, if they contain any caffeine at all. Plus, they’re perfect for sipping as is or even dosed with a teaspoon of add-ins like collagen powder, ground turmeric, or coconut oil.
