Unsweet tea????

I can't imagine why sweetener would make tea, or anything else, more healthy. Nonsense.

Are they saying that unsweetened tea is LESS healthy than sweetened tea, or just that it isn't as healthy as water? The first makes no sense. The 2nd might be true, since tea has caffeine, but there's also some evidence that it might help prevent cancer. Either way, it isn't bad: certainly better than almost anything else you could be drinking (water and limited quantities of skim milk are probably the only things better).

Yeah I would like to know what's unhealthy about it.

I am slowly switching off of coffee (that I have creamer and sugar/substitute in) to unsweetend iced tea in the mornings. It's refreshing, barely any calories and gives me the caffeine kick I want.

Soooo what could be wrong with it?

I drink unsweetened Ice tea almost everyday. I usually get mine each morning from Cumberland Farms on my way to work. When you add it to your food diary there is pretty much zero of everything. Now I do add sweeten low to it which most people frown apon and I must admit that I do feel bad about using sweeten low but I can't drink it any other way!

Caffeine isn't exactly healthy, but a little never hurt. And unsweet tea is better than sugar and calorie-free. I get so tired of people telling others what they can and cannot consume on this website. The login page clearly states "eat what you want". Good grief!!

There is nothing wrong with unsweet tea, although my family revoked my southerner card last time I ordered it out in public.
