You Drink The White Tea...healthy Benefits Do The Rest

There is a Chinese legend about white tea that says about five thousand years ago Shen Nung, the emperor, was journeying through the countryside. He found the water to be very foul and was unable to drink it so he demanded that it be boiled and one day as the wind blew into his cup a tea leaf and there tea was born.

White tea however became a treasure during the Song Dynasty in China from 960-1279. As a tribute to the emperor, the royal court, made white tea the drink of choice.

In order to produce white tea, it takes incredible care and effort. They take special care of newly planted tea bushes, cultivating and pruning them for two years before the allow them to be harvested. They steam the chosen buds and then let them dry ever so slowly. White tea is not rolled, is minimally processed making it different from other processed tea. White tea is the least processed of all the tea and it is because of this that there are so many health benefits to drinking white tea.

White tea is packed with antioxidants. Antioxidants are essential nutrients that our bodies need in order to protect our bodies from free radicals. White tea is one of the best cancer preventing agents that we can use. White tea will protect you against all types of cancer such as colon, prostate and stomach cancers. In certain cases white tea has been shown to work as well as prescription drugs.

How about this - white tea can even help lower your blood pressure. White tea has been shown to thin the blood and improve the function of the arteries. This is a tireless fighter of strokes. There is a type of antioxidants called catechins found in white tea that have been shown to reduce cholesterol. The extra perk that white tea has to offer is that it increases good cholesterol and decreases the bad.

The combination of the above benefits then offers great overall heart protection. Drinking two or more cups of white tea a day decreases you chance of a heart attack by fifty percent according to researchers.

White tea also improves bone density and stronger than of those of people that dont drink white tea. White tea has also been shown to be a natural killer of viruses and bacteria. White tea gives our immune system and all over toning to help us better fight against a wide variety of diseases and it can also help ease the symptoms of HIV.

What I have listed is only a few of the health benefits that you get by drinking white tea. The real question isnt why should you drink white tea, it is why arent you drinking white tea. Stronger heart, stronger bones and a stronger immune system should be enough of a reason to drink white tea and get the rest of the benefits as well.

White Persian Melon Tea Vs White Tea

If you're new to drinking white tea, you may be unaware of the many positive health differences between white tea and black tea. And, White Persian melon tea offers even more health benefits than regular white tea.

The health differences between white and black tea is primarily related to their anti-oxidant content. Tea leaves are naturally rich in some of the most powerful anti-oxidants on earth. Anti-oxidants are important to our health because they combat free radicals in our bodies.

Free radicals are a natural by-product of our digestive processes, but left unchecked they damage our cells and DNA. Damaged cells and DNA lead to aging and serious illnesses like heart disease and cancer.

While all tea leaves are naturally anti-oxidant rich in the beginning, tea processing changes some of the anti-oxidants into different forms that are not as healthy as the originals. Black tea is the most processed of all teas, going through a fermentation process. Green tea leaves are rolled, but skip the fermentation process.

White tea leaves are not rolled or cut, but simply plucked, withered and steamed or fired. Because green and white teas are not fermented, they retain more of their anti-oxidants in natural form. Because white tea is not rolled, it is processed even less than green tea, so that it retains the highest number of original anti-oxidants.

This makes white tea the healthiest you can drink. The anti-oxidants in white tea, often referred to as catechins, can help eradicate free radicals from our bodies. It is this process that protects us from disease and helps slow down the aging process.

Cultures with diets heavy in green and white tea have lower incidences of heart disease, cancer, and high blood pressure.

The catechins in tea have also been shown to be effective in helping with weight loss. For years, we have known that caffeine has the ability to speed up the metabolism. Tea was used to help with weight loss because it contained caffeine.

However, recent studies have shown that tea is more effective at promoting weight loss than other caffeinated beverages, even those that contained a higher caffeine content.

So, researchers have concluded that it is the combination of caffeine and green and white tea's catechins that make it a more effective weight loss supplement. The catechins in tea appear to help speed up the oxidation of fat, not just the metabolism.

White Persian melon tea offers benefits even greater than those of plain white tea. In addition to the anti-oxidants found in all white teas, white Persian melon tea has health benefits because of the added melon nectar.

Melons are also a powerful anti-oxidant source, and contain a particular anti-oxidant known as GliSODdin. GliSODin neutralizes some of the most powerful free radicals in our bodies and stimulates our bodies to make its own anti-oxidants.

This is especially important because scientists believe that the anti-oxidants produced in our bodies are more effective at destroying free radicals than those we ingest from our diets. So, melons give us a double dose of health benefit. We receive benefit directly from the melon's anti-oxidants, but the melons also stimulate our own bodies to make even stronger anti-oxidants than those in the melon.

Melons are an excellent source of vitamins A and C, beta carotene and potassium. It also contains lycopene, which is one of the most powerful anti-oxidants, and is one not found in tea. In addition, melons have an anti-clotting effect on the blood. This makes it effective in preventing blood clots, which is one of the leading causes of heart attacks.

Therefore, because of the anti-oxidants and anti-clotting action of melons, they may be one of the best foods for those at high risk of heart disease.

White tea and melon make a powerful combination, and may be one of the healthiest teas you can drink. A steady diet of white Persian melon tea may be a very effective way to protect your heart health.

And, the best news is that white Persian melon tea is delicious. The combination of sweet and delicate white tea with fruity and refreshing melon makes it a delicious drink that's unlike the flavor of any other white tea. In fact, if you've found plain white tea a little too mild for your liking, you may find that you love white Persian melon tea. The addition of the melon nectar gives this white tea more flavor than many others.

White Persian melon tea is equally delicious whether enjoyed hot or cold. This makes it even easier to get a daily dose. Brew it hot in the winter and ice it down in the summer. If you've never tried white Persian melon tea, you're missing a real treat.

And, if you have avoided buying the highest quality white teas because you believe it to be too expensive, take another look. Buying high quality loose teas in bulk from a quality tea purveyor is still relatively inexpensive compared to many other beverages.

You can enjoy white Persian melon tea for less than .50 a cup, which is typically less than the cost of soda, which has absolutely no health benefits!

So, drink up! White Persian melon tea is one of the most delicious and refreshing you can buy, and it's one of the healthiest as well. You're sure to love this delicious alternative to other white teas.

When is a good age to begin using Anti-Aging Products

I have been in the beauty business for my entire career, successfully launching cosmetic, fragrance and anti-aging skincare products since the early 1980.

I am constantly asked my advice on what anti-aging skincare products to use and at what age? Is 25 too young for anti-aging skin treatments, serums, and creams.. and if I start when I begin to see lines and wrinkles, is that too late? There are many aspects to consider in answering this ge?old question. Heredity, environment and overall health also play significant roles in the anti-aging debate

But first, there are a few major preventative ifestyleeasures I tell women of any age to help maintain beautiful skin, and these are beauty musts and on-negotiable?

Avoid smoking, avoid the sun &wear sunscreen, eliminate sugar from your diet and drink 8+ glasses of water everyday!"I can stress these enough! Smoking decreases the body's ability to make collagen and also leads to premature lines and wrinkles. Staying out of the sun can help minimize the onset of aging-fine lines and wrinkles, loss of elasticity/ sagging skin and moreover you will avoid having sunspots and unsightly hyperpigmentation and you grow older. Too much sugar and not enough water really take a toll on skin.

So with a few good, SIMPLE skincare habits, including daily cleansing, bi-weekly revitalizing skin exfoliant treatments and using anti-oxidant,anti-aging creams and lotions morning and night you can thwart the aging process as early as you feel is needed. An intensive eye crme and a lifting & firming neck crme should also be introduced as part of any woman anti-aging skincare regime.

My thoughts.. and I truly believe, the sooner the better!

By using great anti-aging serums combined with anti-oxidant, intensive hydrating moisturizers, you can speed cell turnover, repair collagen & elastin breakdown and build elasticityeeping skin at its healthy best, no matter your age. This simple daily routine helps to minimize the early signs of aging-forehead wrinkles, marionette lines around the mouth and the onset of crow feet.

I choose natural basedanti-aging products from my Lea Black Beauty line that contain ingredients such as Vitamin C and Vitamin E, great extracts (Green tea and white tea, Pink grapefruit, Aloe Vera), and Alpha lipoic and Hyaluronicacid. Another good oxidant ingredient is cranberry oil, as it helps minimize damage caused sun exposure and pollution. Retinol Palmitate (Vitamin A) helps toshrink enlarged pores, even out skin tone, and build collagen while speeding cell turnover.

Sunflower Seed, Jojoba and Coconut oils are great natural emollients, skin softeners and moisturizing agents.

I encourage all women to engage in a simple anti-aging skincare as soon as they deem necessary. The resultseautiful healthy, glowing skin at any age!

WHY CHOOSE GREEN TEA!

Tea How Is White Tea Different From Other Teas

In recent years, white tea has gained great popularity. Tea connoisseurs everywhere have come to appreciate white tea's delicate, slightly sweet flavor. Though white tea comes from the camellia sinensis plant, just like black tea, green tea and oolong tea, there are several significant differences between white tea and other teas.

Processing - White tea is harvested before the leaves are fully open, when the buds have fine white hair covering them. This is much earlier than other teas are harvested. In addition, white tea leaves are not fermented. Rather their leaves are simply steamed and then dried, often right in the fields. This protects white tea's delicate flavor.

Availability Less white tea is grown than other types of tea in the world. Most tea gardens designate just a few tea bushes for early harvest to create white tea. In addition, white tea is grown in far fewer areas of the world. Most of it is grown in China and Japan, and a little is grown in small areas of India and Sri Lanka. However, we may find more and more tea gardens concentrating on white tea as the demand for it grows.

Cost Because white tea is fairly rare, you'll find that it costs a bit more. However, white tea is gaining popularity, which means that it's likely that it will become more readily availability, which is likely to drive down the price.

Flavor White tea has a very delicate flavor that is slightly sweet. It has a paler color than other teas. In fact, it may appear that you didn't steep it long enough, if you judge just by the color. It also has far less aroma than green, oolong or black tea.

Serving method Do not pour boiling water on white tea leaves; the temperature should be a bit shy of the boiling point. And, experts recommend that you not use sweetener or milk in white tea; it should be served plain.

Caffeine Content White tea has the least caffeine of any tea. White tea contains about 15 mg of caffeine per serving, while black tea contains 40 and green tea contains 20. This makes white tea an excellent choice for the caffeine sensitive.

Health Benefits White tea contains all the benefits usually associated with drinking green tea, but with additional benefits, as well. Like green tea, white tea holds antioxidants in their natural state. These anti-oxidants have been shown to:

Reduce your risk of cancer Many different studies have supported the finding that green tea and, because of its similarity, white tea, can prevent and possibly even help treat cancer. Several studies have shown that Asian cultures, where tea drinking is most common, to have significantly lower incidences of many forms of cancer. Some other studies have suggested that a compound in these teas can actually inhibit the growth of cancer cells.

This compound may prevent cancer in healthy people, and may even be able to slow down cancer's progress in those already battling the disease. It appears that tea may be most effective at preventing bladder, colon, rectal, esophageal, bladder, liver, lung, pancreatic cancer, breast cancer and prostate cancer.

Lowers Cholesterol - Tea has been shown to be effective in lowering LDL cholesterol. Tea also appears to inhibit the formation of abnormal blood clots. These clots, also known as thrombosis, are the leading cause of heart attacks and strokes. Many studies have shown that when coupled with a low cholesterol diet, participants who drank tea reported lowering cholesterol levels more than participants on the same diet who did not consume tea daily.

Ease Rheumatoid Arthritis Tea's anti-oxidants may also be able to prevent and reduce the severity of rheumatoid arthritis. Several studies have shown dramatic reduction in the incidents of arthritis in mice that were fed tea. In addition, the mice that did develop arthritis developed a milder form with an onset later in life. In addition, rheumatoid arthritis is far less common in the Asian world, where tea drinking is much more frequent.

Help Lose Weight Tea's combination of catechins and caffeine appear to speed up the metabolism and may help with weight loss. It may also help regulate insulin in the body, which can be beneficial for diabetics.

Prevent Alzheimer's disease Studies suggest that tea drinkers may also be less likely to develop Alzheimer's disease.

Improve your immune system One benefit of drinking white tea that is not found in drinking other forms of tea is that white tea seems to be especially good at improving your immune system, which makes your body more effective at fighting off bacteria and viruses. White tea seems to be especially effective at killing the staph and strep viruses.

So, as you can see, white tea is very much like other teas, and very different at the same time. What this means to most of us is that it's a great tea to add to our usual list of treasured teas. Once you try white tea, you're certain to want to drink it just as regularly as the other varieties of tea you've grown to love.

Practical information to Chinese tea

Tea culture is one of my favorite things about China. Be thousands of years and serves as a means, not only to heal and strengthen the body, but also a central coordinating body in Chinese culture, tea is the most consumed beverage in the world after water. Now that you're in China, it is not a bad thing for you knowing more about tea of China. The four common styles of tea, in order from least oxidized to most oxidized, are White, Green, Oolong and Black.

White Tea is comparatively unprocessed in comparability with other teas, and may be permitted to oxidize quite little. The identify arrives previous your fact that most white tea essentially is white and grayish searching and commonly times have small white fuzzy hairs covering the leaf. White tea create quite pale eco-friendly or yellowish liquor while are almost definitely the most delicate in flavor and aroma. A tasty, but affordable daily white tea you possibly can consume is often called White Peony in pinyin Bai Mu Dan.

Green Tea is normally subjected to some multi-step treatment of steaming, pan-firing, and/or rolling before getting dried to freeze the oxidation process. Small oxidation happens in most eco-friendly teas, as well as in inclusion they are differentiated from white tea largely by means of the additional ways of manipulating or digesting the leaf before drying. In China, one previous your most good recognized eco-friendly tea is Dragon Well, pinyin: prolonged Jing, from Hangzhou. The Chinese language program commonly wants to consume eco-friendly tea previous your tall glass. It usually could be brewed 3-4 times.

Oolong Tea also goes by means of a multi-step treatment of steaming, pan-firing or rolling. While in contrast to eco-friendly tea it permitted to "wither" which offers the leaf time to oxidize. Oolongs usually range between 20% and 80% oxidization. Oolongs usually tend to be more powerful and bolder in flavor than eco-friendly or White tea and existing much less astringency than both the more powerful black color and lighter eco-friendly teas. Oolong sleek and plentiful flavor has a tendency to allow it to be an ideal tea for new tea drinkers.

Black Tea goes by means of an equivalent digesting to eco-friendly and Oolong tea but is permitted to oxidize much more completely. The brewed liquor of your black color tea ranges in between darker brown and deep red. Black color tea commonly contain the strongest flavor and, in some cases, best astringency. Westerners usually increase handsome and milk to their black color teas, however the Chinese language program frown upon this. consume a high class loose leaf back once more tea immediate and you also might recognize why the Chinese language program by no signifies need to increase milk or handsome to their tea.

The most recognized black color tea in China is Wuyishan huge red-colored Robe, recognized in course of Chinese language program as Da Hong Pao. This tea could possibly get pretty expensive, but purchaser bewares, there may be essentially loads of phony Da Hong Pao covering the market. It attributes a honey like flavor that's unforgettable.

Actually there is a common arguement that some consider Da Hong Pa a black tea and some consider it an oolong. This can also depend on the fermentation of the Da Hong Pao as well. The real traditional Da Hong Pao is more fermented and thus classified as a black tea.

White Persian Melon Tea

Whether you've been drinking tea for years or are new to this category of beverages, you simply must introduce yourself to white tea. White tea's light and delicate flavor appeals to most everyone, including people who find black teas too strong.

One of the best white teas to try when you're new to white tea drinking is white Persian melon tea. I say this because white Persian melon has a fruity taste and is one of the most refreshing white teas on the market. And, white Persian melon can be enjoyed hot or cold, so it's a very versatile tea.

Trying white Persian melon tea will not only give your taste buds a boost, but it can improve your health, too. White tea is renowned for its ability to boost the immune system and fight infection, so a regular diet of white tea during the cold and flu months may keep you going strong.

In addition, long term ingestion of the anti-oxidants found in white and green tea have been shown to lower your risk of cancer, high cholesterol and heart disease. Tea's anti-oxidants are powerful fighters of free radicals in our bodies.

Free radicals are created as a by product of digestion. Left unchecked, they damage the DNA and cells in our bodies, causing disease and aging. A diet rich in anti-oxidants is the best way to combat these free radicals and the anti-oxidants in tea have been found to be some of the most effective around.

But, even in the white tea category, white Persian melon ranks as one of the best for your health. This is because melon is also a potent anti-oxidant source. Melon contains an anti-oxidant called GliSODin. This particular anti-oxidant is known to neutralize some of the most destructive free radicals in our bodies.

However, GliSODin also has the power to stimulate our bodies to produce its own anti-oxidants, and has been clinically proven to help maintain cellular health and protect against oxidative damage in several studies. GliSODin is so powerful that it has even found to be effective when used topically.

In addition to GliSODin, melon is a good source of vitamin C, vitamin A, beta carotene and lycopene, all potent anti-oxidants in their own rights. So, as you can see, drinking white Persian melon tea may just be an investment in your long term health as well as being delicious.

The biggest problem I can find with white Persian melon tea is that it's available from limited sources. White tea, in general, is rare, because it is harvested just once a year, and because compared to the number of tea bushes in the world used to produce green and black teas, there are very few white tea plants being grown.

With the increase in popularity of white tea, I think it's fair to say that white tea production will increase. However, tea plants take several years to mature enough to be harvested, so even if every tea garden that makes quality white tea planted thousands of new bushes, it would be a few years before the market would see that impact.

Because white Persian melon tea is just one blend of white tea, it is even more difficult to come by. Many people are lucky enough to have several very good tea stores in their local area. If you are one of these people, you may be able to find some high quality flavored white teas locally. Look for these things when you purchase white tea:

?It must be loose tea - Don't even bother with white tea in bag form. It's just as expensive as loose tea, and is far inferior in quality. Plus, you can't see what you're getting when tea is in a bag.

?It should be fluffy in appearance. White tea should not be compact.

?The leaves should have a bit of a silver appearance.

?The aroma should be delicate. Flavored white tea will carry the scent of the flavoring more than the scent of the tea.

If you're unable to find good white tea locally, your best bet is to order online. In fact, online ordering is great for anyone, because it allows you access to the finest tea shops in the world, regardless of where you live.

The one downside to online ordering is the fact that you don't get the opportunity to see and taste the tea before you buy. But, some of the best online tea houses have come up with a solution to this dilemma. Many offer a sampler package that offers small quantities of several of their teas at a reasonable price. This allows you to try the tea before you order a large quantity.

Another way to ensure that you will be satisfied with a tea you've purchased sight unseen is to only buy from online tea houses that provide a money back guarantee. This way if you don't like the tea once you've tasted it, you can get your money back.

Online ordering will increase your chances of being able to find rare white teas like white Persian melon, but you'll still find that it's very difficult to find, particularly in the best quality. Few tea companies produce this combination, and even fewer produce it with the best white tea.

Be certain to sample Golden Moon Tea's White Persian Melon. It's the best quality loose white tea mixed with the nectar of melon. You can count on Golden Moon to carry only the best teas at a fair price. And, like all fine tea purveyors, there's always a money back guarantee. It's likely that Golden Moon's White Persian Melon will be one of your all time favorites.

Do You Know About The Benefits Of Green Tea Extract

The benefits of green tea extract may be accompanied by risks if the dosage is too high. Other nutrients must be present at the same time, in order to avoid these risks. In other words, supplements that contain only the tea extracts and nothing else are not your best choice.

The studies concerning the potential toxicity of the catechins found in green tea were conducted in the same manner as those that describe the benefit. It was found that at high doses, the catechins were toxic to liver cells and caused the depletion of glutathione, an important tri-peptide that also acts as an antioxidant.

Judging by all of the research that has been done, it seems that some antioxidants are important to some parts of the body, but not to others. So, there must be a balance. One of the benefits of green tea extract is to protect the stomach, throat and prostrate from cancer. Glutathione, on the other hand, prevents oxidative stress to the heart and the brain. Resveratrol, another antioxidant, protects the cells of the breast, skin, colon and pancreas from free radical damage that can lead to cancer.

Basically, we need all of these antioxidants, if we want to live a long healthy life, but we don want to overdo it. According to respected scientists, to get the benefits of green tea extract, with no risk, the daily dosage should be 100mg per day. If you see a supplement that contains more than that, don buy it.

There are, of course, some that advocate mega-doses of vitamins and higher dosages may be appropriate for treating certain diseases, but as a maintenance dose, 100mg per day is perfect. You get the catechins, but not enough to cause damage to the liver or the depletion of glutathione.

Levels of glutathione are known to decrease with age, so supplementation is necessary and important, particularly if you are also taking extracts from green teas. But, until recently, there was a problem. Regular glutathione cannot be used by the cells and is useless if it is released in the stomach, as it would be with normal capsules or tablets. So, you need to look for supplements that contain educed?glutathione of low molecular weight and the tablet should have an enteric coating to prevent stomach acid from making it useless.

If you wanted the benefits of green tea extract, reduced glutathione and resveratrol, as well as the nutrients that your body requires to function on a daily basis, you could buy five or six different bottles or you could look for a multi-nutritional supplement that contains all of these things. I always like to get the best value for my money, so I choose a multi-ingredient supplement and I take an omega3 fish oil supplement, so that all of my bases are covered.

The benefits of green tea extract are greater than those that you get from drinking tea all day, but remember to shop carefully and read the label. Too much of a good thing can be bad for you. If you have a few minutes to spare, please take a look at the website now.

What Is Blooming Tea Or Flowering Tea All About

There are many claims to the formation of this 'artistic tea' although hard facts ppear to be thin on the ground. This leaves many to the imagination and assumptions! There is no doubt though that artisans developed flowering tea buds or balls, and that this craft came from China; some people say the Anhui Province, others say the Fujian Province. For most of us, it really does not matter where it was invented; suffice to say that it has become a strong export for China to the whole world and as a result, we have a beautiful selection of flowering tea goods.

Artisans, skillful workers who create items by hand, make the flowering tea buds. Loose green tea, together with loose white and black teas are combined with flowers tea and petals in unique styles to produce flowering tea. When the combination of teas is picked, the buds are hand sewn, covered with material, put in a kiln to dry out, wrapped up individually and then despatched. As the method is labour intensive, the price of these buds is subsequently relatively expensive.

Looking at the first flowering tea is an amazingly enjoyable experience. As the bloom surfaces from a tight ball, to turn into something entirely different and quite indistinguishable from that grey lump of tea, there is a sense of wonder that something like this can be formed.

With immersion of around three minutes, the tea bud will be transformed into a blossom. Certain buds will be more stunning than others, varying from a lump of long green leaves, to incredible blossoms with wafting tentacles such as "Touching Dragons". The names alone are enough to create much anticipation - "Jasmine Silvery Strawberry Ball", "Double Lion Pearl", "Seven Sons Congratulating".

After the initial visual impact, it looks like somewhat of an anti-climax to drink the tea. But that is precisely what the flowering tea is designed for. Again, there are varying levels of quality of tea. Some blossoms are made from quality white tea, but nearly all are made from loose green tea. It is generally true that you get what you pay for. A cheap product is likely to be made of inferior products and may not have the desired pleasant taste - or any taste at all. Not all teas are borne equal!

A pleasing blooming tea is certainly a trial and error procedure, and even more so when the quality of tea is taken into account. But it is not difficult to get great flowering teas these days. Most tea stockists offer pictures so you can be sure of seeing a beautiful unfolding of handmade tea buds.

White Tea Drink Your Way to Good Health

Tea Time A Guide To The Four Basic Types Of Tea

A cup of tea can help you get your morning started or aid in relaxation after a long and stressful day. You can warm up on a cold winter day with a steaming mug of your favorite tea, or you can cool down on a summer afternoon with a tall, refreshing, glass of iced tea. Not only does it taste great hot or cold, but it can also help you stay healthy. Witha variety of tea that seem to come in ever color of the rainbow and every flavor possible, walking down the tea aisle at your local grocery store can be a perplexing event. The truth of the matter is that there are basically four groups of tea and most of your favorite will fall into those categories.

Black Tea: The process of making Black tea is a long process that eventually results in the oxidation and fermentation of the tea leaves. This fermentation process results the darkening of the tea leaves to a deep red or black color. Black Tea is one of the more common flavored teas. Under the umbrella of black teas are some common flavors such as Darjeeling and an assortment of breakfast teas.

Benefits: It is believed that black tea can help digestion, improve cholesterol, and possibly reduce tooth decay. While there is caffeine in black tea it not as potent your morning cup of coffee and can often give you that needed boost without the jitters.

Green Tea: Green tea is made from leaves that do not go through oxidization. They are picked and then steamed or pan fried to prevent any fermentation. Although it doesn sound extremely appetizing this popular tea is often described as tasting earthy like grass. It has a light and refreshing flavor and depending on the type, can range from sweet to a little bitter.

Benefits:Green tea is credited with helping your body fight off cancer, some types of arthritis, and high cholesterol. It also can be a great boost to your immune system.

Oolong Tea: Oolong Tea is less oxidized than black tea but does go through some oxidation unlike green tea. Most tea drinkers describe oolong as having a earthy/grass taste similar to Green tea, however it slightly stronger.

Benefits: While it not yet proven, there is some research being done into the impact oolong tea has on weight control. Besides that, oolong tea is credited with aiding digesting and cleansing the body from the inside out.

White Tea: White tea can be thought of the unripe fruit of the tea world. Made from young or immature leaves that have yet to undergo oxidation, white tea is probably the most expensive and rarest form of tea. Although it recently has become more available in the United States, it was originally hard to find anywhere else besides China. White tea is often said to have a smooth sweet flavor.
Benefits: The flavor alone isn a reason why white tea is becoming so popular in the US. This tea is credited with being the healthiest form of tea because it so close to its natural state. Some of the benefits of white tea come from the high amount of cancer fighting anti-oxidants as well as its ability to aid your immune system in fighting off bacteria and viruses.

What is a Good White Licorice Blend

There are many white teas and white tea blends to choose from. But, you won't find any more delicious than white licorice tea. However, just as with other blends of white tea, to get the best flavor from your white licorice tea, it's important to choose a good quality blend. The difference between teas that have been made using the best ingredients and those created using inferior ingredients is significant, so it pays to know what you're buying when you purchase any white tea blend.

White tea is new to many tea drinkers in the US, but it is becoming more popular every day. Because white tea is so mild, it lends itself beautifully to being mixed with other flavors. White licorice tea is just one of the many flavors of white tea available, but it is surely one of the finest. The sweet and unique taste of licorice combined with white tea's mild pale brew is refreshing and flavorful.

White tea comes from the same plant as other teas, but is unique in many ways. Leaves for white tea are harvested much earlier than other teas, before the leaves are fully open, and while they are covered with fine white hair. These tender, young leaves give white tea its light and sweet flavor.

In addition to being harvested earlier than tea leaves used for other tea varieties, white tea is also left unfermented. This lack of fermentation contributes to the delicate flavor and makes the tea healthier. Fermenting tea changes the naturally occurring anti-oxidants that make tea so healthy. So, because they are left unfermented, green and white teas are naturally healthier than black tea. The natural anti-oxidants in green and white teas These free radicals are created when our bodies convert the food we eat into energy.

Left unchecked, they damage our cells and DNA, leading to aging and disease. An anti-oxidant rich diet, including fruits, vegetables and white or green tea, combats these anti-oxidants, preventing them from damaging our bodies. A regular diet of white or green tea has been shown to prevent serious illnesses like cancer and heart disease. It can also help us keep our weight in check and slow down the process of aging.

Of course, the second important ingredient in white licorice tea blends is the licorice. Many licorice flavored teas are flavored using the licorice root. The licorice root is far less expensive to use and has a more potent flavor, so less is required to flavor the tea. However, using licorice root to flavor white tea produces a harsh and overpowering taste.

The best white licorice tea is flavored using whole pieces of star anise, which gives the tea just the right amount of licorice flavor and mild sweetness. This is a more expensive way to flavor the tea, but it creates a far superior brew. The best star anise is grown in China, just like the best white tea, making it easy to combine the two flavors in tea produced in that country.

A good white licorice tea is a great way to relieve an upset stomach and aid digestion. White licorice tea flavored with star anise is so mild and so low in caffeine that you can even use it to soothe a colicky baby without fear that it will be too strong or interfere with sleep.

You'll likely find that you turn to white licorice tea on many evenings when you've eaten a bit too much dinner or eaten something that didn't set well on your stomach. Many people prize star anise for its ability to ease body aches and pains, so it's also a wonderful evening drink when you've indulged in a bit too much exercise or are experiencing body aches from the flu or a cold.

A quality white licorice tea blend will be made with Silver Needles or White Peony white tea. These two grades of white tea are considered the very best, and will give you the best sweet and delicate flavor that is so important in white tea.

A final important element in making a great blend of white tea and licorice is the exact proportion of the two ingredients. Too much licorice will produce a flavor that is too sweet or too strong. Too little licorice, however, will leave the drinker wondering exactly what flavor the tea is supposed to have. The best white licorice teas have exactly the right amount of natural star anise added to the best white tea, creating the perfect flavor combination.

Try Golden Moon's White licorice tea for the perfect combination of these two wonderful flavors. You'll find this tea made from a beautiful white tea base that is brown in color with silver tips. The flavor of the tea is complex with just a hint of smokiness to bring out the flavor of the star anise. The flavor is exceptionally soothing and warming.

Drinking white licorice tea is likely to become one of your favorite evening rituals. It will aid your digestion, soothe your soul and calm you to prepare you for a peaceful night's sleep. The flavor is surely one you'll look forward to enjoying every single day.
