Tea Polyphenol Recovery
Tea polyphenol recovery adds antioxidant-rich unsweetened cups after training—supporting variety, not replacing protein, carbs, or sleep.
Tea polyphenol recovery means using unsweetened green, white, or oolong tea to add antioxidant variety after hard training—not to replace protein, carbs, or sleep. Catechins may blunt oxidative stress markers in studies; food cups beat megadose pills.
Space tea away from iron-rich post-workout meals if absorption is a concern.
Common questions
-
Should you drink tea right after lifting?
Protein and carbs come first; tea can follow if tannins do not crowd an iron-heavy meal. Wait thirty to sixty minutes if you supplement iron or eat red meat.
