Yes it does. Many people think that green tea contains more antioxidants than black tea but believe it or not black tea contains just as much antioxidants as green tea. Just read the nutrition information on the packages. So to answer your question black tea in tea bags does have antioxidants.

What has the most antioxidants in it?

The antioxidant content of tea varies widely from one tea to the next, but it's impossible to generalize about the antioxidant content of broad classes of tea such as green tea, black tea, oolong tea, or white tea. The freshness of tea also affects its antioxidant content, especially after the tea is brewed. Bottled iced tea, or iced tea that has been stored for a while, is low in antioxidants because the antioxidants break down.Tea contains many different types of antioxidants. Green and white tea tend to contain more of the catechins, whereas oxidized teas including oolong and black tea tend to contain more theaflavins and thearubigins, which are sometimes called tannins, and are the chemicals giving these teas their dark color.Herbal teas generally do not contain the same antioxidants as in tea, but they are also antioxidant rich.


What is another name for antioxidants found in tea?

There are many antioxidants in tea, and they have many names, depending on how specific you want to get. The antioxidants are all a type of flavonoid, which are also classified as polyphenols. Green and white tea are richest in catechins, a class of chemicals which include epicatechin (EC), epigallocatechin (EGC), epicatechin gallate (ECG), and epigallocatechin gallate.Black tea, oolong tea, and other oxidized teas contain catechins as well, but some of these chemicals have been converted to other antioxidants, called theaflavins and thearubigins. These antioxidants are also called tannins, and are responsible for the dark color of black tea.Herbal tea contains other antioxidants, and generally does not contain catechins. However, it does still contain polyphenols (which are a broader class of chemicals).
