8. Black tea strengthens the immune system

The body's inbuilt immune system provides a natural first defense against infection and disease. Everyone agrees that following a healthy diet and taking regular exercise strengthens this system and reduces the risks of illness. Scientists note that the alkylamine antigens found in black tea boost the immune system's performance. The tea also brings into the body substances known as tannins. In these ways, tea drinking enhances natural resistance to flu and other types of viruses.
