Green tea provides a variety of health benefits. It prevents heart disease and promotes oral health. Here are other benefits of green tea: Bone Health: Routine tea consumption decreases the risk of fractures. It also helps diminish bone loss. Its properties suppress the breakdown of bone. At the same time, it increases the activity of bone-building cells. Weight Loss : Green tea boosts the metabolic rate and increases fat burning. It decreases body fat, especially, in the midsection. Green tea not only help you lose weight, but it also keeps the weight off. You should drink at least three cups a day, if you want to raise your metabolism. Cancer: Green tea is said to prevent cancer, such as prostate and breast cancer. It contains catechins, which prevent cell mutation and reduce the growth of tumors. It also blocks the action of carcinogens. You should drink at least four cups a day, if you want anti-cancer benefits. Heart Health: Tea consumption lowers your risk of heart disease and stroke. It improves the health of the cells lining the blood vessels. It also lowers the LDL cholesterol and triglycerides.

Herbal tea is not technically a true tea, as it does not derive from the Camellia sinensis plant (i.e. the plant that is used to create black, oolong, green, and white teas). Instead, herbal tea is an infusion or blend of various leaves, fruits, bark, roots, or flowers belonging to almost any edible, non-tea plant. Herbal teas have existed for a very long time, but have surged in popularity over the past several decades thanks to their vibrant flavor, as well as their myriad mental, emotional, and physical health benefits.

Oolong tea originates from the east, where it was both enjoyed as a beverage in ancient times and frequently used to aid a variety of different health maladies as a traditional medicine. In more modern times, it’s still enjoyed just as much – and the only thing that might have changed is the fact that we know a little more about the health benefits associated with oolong tea. The verdict is that oolong tea can be great for improving your health, and this is true whether you’re trying to lose weight or improve your immune system. Oolong tea can even be excellent for aiding specific health conditions when combined with treatment, such as helping to lower high blood pressure in a more natural way, or helping to lower the levels of cholesterol in your blood.

White tea is characterized as a tea that is not oxidized (meaning broken, bent or rolled) in any way. Therefore, great care must be taken when transporting the freshly picked green leaf from field to factory where it is withered and dried. Because it is not oxidized in any way, the teas maintain their color and leaf-like form. White teas are known for their soft and sweet notes. They leave one's mouth feeling refreshed, and body cleansed. Antioxidant rich and with minimal caffeine, they are appealing on many levels. White tea is not a replacement for your black and green tea collection – it is an additional tea drinking experience. White teas are fantastic as sun teas, or as a warm cup in any season.
