6. Green Tea
Green tea contains powerful antioxidants such as catechins and vitamin C, which can not only eliminate free radicals in the body but also stimulate the secretion of hormones in the adrenal cortex to resist stress. However, the small amount of caffeine contained in green tea can stimulate the central nervous system, so it is best to drink it during the day to avoid affecting sleep.
