What About That Cup Of Tea?

By Natalgia Rysen


The Tea's Climb to Stardom

Any time someone hears the word "tea", the initial picture that would often enter his / her mind are those settings from the East where there were tea parties and all. That maybe true actually, as tea has from the time been thought to be a big player to better health, good life, happiness and so on.

From the East, the popularity of tea spread to the West. Similar to how Argan oil originated from part of the world and then it swarmed the planet, the craze over tea is now at its highest. Apart from people being more health-conscious these days, many now know the tons of benefits of drinking tea. On top of that, tea itself has been taken to a whole new level -- they're available in a number of variants and made even better with those add-ons like the pearls, pudding, ice cream, jelly, etc.

Getting to Understand the "Tea" in Those Tea-riffic Mixtures

You will find loads of establishments today focusing on making different concoctions of tea. In the event you march up the counter, you'd see a large selection on their menu. But have you ever wondered what exactly are really those versions about and just what difference have they got from another? Let us take a closer look at the different varieties of tea.

Green Tea - This type of tea is made from steamed leaves. What's great about it is that it is loaded with antioxidants that can keep you on guard for the possible growth of cancer in the bladder, breasts, lungs, pancreas, stomach, and so forth. This is also the type of tea that can burn fat.

Black Tea - Derived from fermented tea leaves, this is the one with the highest levels of caffeine. This is typically the base that's used for most variants (e.g. used for chais, etc.).

White Tea - This is tea in the most natural form -- it really is unfermented and uncured. It has the best amounts of antioxidants.

Oolong Tea - Oolong is said to be the perfect guard against bad cholesterol. It is also said to contribute to weight loss. This one is very popular these days as it's the one that goes perfectly well with those so-called "add-ons".

Is it Advisable for Everyone to Take Tea?

If things such as Moroccan Argan oil are great for everybody, how about tea? It's a fact that tea contains quantities of caffeine. And so the question for you is, is it generally best for every person irrespective of age? Well if you look at the health benefits, it is. However, whenever it comes to children, it will only be in little amounts as there is caffeine content in it.
