Both can contain caffeine

Caffeine content varies by drink, serving size, brewing method, and product.

Their non-caffeine compounds differ

Coffee and tea have different polyphenol profiles, so they should not be treated as nutritionally identical.

Weight management is bigger than beverage choice

Either drink can fit a balanced diet, but neither replaces a sustainable dietary pattern and activity routine.

Choose based on the whole routine

Consider taste, caffeine sensitivity, sleep timing, additions such as sugar or cream, and whether the drink helps you maintain habits you value.
