Green tea
Both teas green and black are enriched with the flavonoids. Flavonoids are a type of anti-oxidant. But we specifically talk about the green tea because it really excels with the presence of EGCG in it, another strong anti-oxidant. In black tea its fermentation process destroys EGCG in it. EGCG is very good to increase or boost immunity in the human body. With that of EGCG green tea is also good in providing you with the amino acid L-theanine. This amino acid helps in the production of the germ-fighting compounds in the T-cells.
