Want to brew a hot cup of tea but unsure if it is OK to drink a cup while on the Paleo diet?
Yes and No! Tea is not considered to be Paleo friendly by people that strictly follow the diet due to the high amount of caffeine but some people still think it is OK since it is all natural.
Why is Tea Paleo?
Herbal tea is Paleo friendly because it is all natural and does not contain ingredients that go against the paleo lifestyle. If you are drinking tea make sure to check for artificial preservatives, sugars and other flavorings that might break the Paleo diet!
Why is Tea Not Paleo?
Paleo loyalists stay away from drinking green tea due to the high amount of caffeine. While tea may have many health benefits for your body the caffeine content out weights the good. We recommend sticking with other beverages like water or milk.
