Heath benefits of White tea

Generally am a fan of tea but White tea specially has been an obsession of mine for a while now although white tea has a lot of great health benefits it still gets overlooked in comparison with other herbal teas.

 White tea comes from the tea plant Camellia sinensis that’s the same plant that green tea comes from the main difference is that the white tea leafs are harvested at a younger stage than green tea *green tea gets more processed in comparison to white tea*

White tea contains the very same types of antioxidants as green tea but since white tea is less processed than green tea it retains most of its valuable antioxidants.

Health benefits of white tea:

·         Helps in reducing the risk of cancer

·         Boosts cardiovascular health

·         Lowers Blood Pressure

·         Lowers Cholesterol

·         Antibacterial & Antiviral

·         Healthy Teeth and Gums

·         Healthy skin

·         Weight loss

Last tea tip of the day if you are wondering why it's called white tea although it's color is very similar to green tea that’s because of the silver *ish* fuzz that coats the buds when the leafs are plucked which turns white when the tea is all dried & that’s why its called WHITE TEA

Have you ever tried white tea?
