Drinking Tea - Increasing Risk to Your Health?

Evaluating Risk Factors: Drinking Tea

If you indicate coffee or tea consumption, The Analyst™ will ask further questions including this one:

How much non-herbal ('ordinary') black tea do you drink on average?

Possible responses:

→ None / very little / don't know
→ About one cup per day
→ About two cups per day
→ About three cups per day
→ Four cups or more per day

The Diagnostic Process

Based on your response to this question, which may indicate no/low tea consumption, tea consumption or high tea consumption, The Analyst™ will use differential diagnosis to consider possibilities such as:

Caffeine Intoxication

Consequences of Poor Diet

Black tea has some healthy components (although green tea is better, and white tea better still), but it can interfere with the absorption of some nutrients such as iron, especially when taken with meals.
