Before, drinking tea for me is more about the things I do with it. Just like reading a book or talking to a family or friend. I don't even think of the how much good this magic drink can bring me. I read many articles naming the benefits of drinking tea. It surprise me that even a serious disease can be prevented while enjoying a nice cup of tea.

Experts recommend two to three cups of tea a day. For me, even better without sugar and milk.
