I just read something if you drink 6+ cups a day your less likely to develope type 2 diabetes.
I assume this means without sugar as I think tea is meant to help break down the glucose that diabetics cant break down.
Im think type 2 would be hyperglycaemics (high blood sugar levels) so that the tea has something to break down. I can imagine those with low blood sugar (hypogycaemics) wouldnt drink it in the same way because they need sugar to stabilise it so maybe they'd be the ones to put sugar in?
