Which Tea Type is the Healthiest?

The second most common question is which tea is the healthiest?  

A comprehensive and current report has recently been published called  What science says about getting the most out of your tea.  It covers this question and a lot more material.  It makes for really interesting reading and like all things tea some of the content will divide opinion.  I am very grateful to the authors for their permission to reproduce the report on the very reasonable condition it is in full form.  The authors are:
Emma Beckett, Postdoctoral Fellow (Human Molecular Nutrition), School of Medicine and Public Health, University of Newcastle and Quan V Vuong, Senior Lecturer in Food Science & Human Nutrition, University of Newcastle. 

Their article was originally published on The Conversation.
