The Benefits of Tea

Most of us have heard at least something about the healing qualities of tea. Tea has been linked to so many positive health benefits, some call it the 'miracle drug.' Not sure what all the hype is about???

Research shows that people who drink 2-5 cups of tea per day benefit very strongly. One component of tea is Theanine, which helps fight against bacterial and viral infections. Teas have even been linked to delaying the aging process,
fighting off high blood pressure and cholesterol, and helping lower levels of cancer-causing free radicals in your body.
Need more incentive?? Some teas also contain flouride for healthy teeth and Vitamin K, which helps prevent blood from clotting. Tea is also virtually calorie free and although it does contain caffeine, each cup of tea has less than half the caffeine that a cup of coffee contains. (teabenefits.com)

Not Impressed YET? ... There is SO MUCH MORE! There are so many different varieties of tea, and you can select teas that are specially suited for certain health conditions.
