ALL ABOUT GREEN TEA!


🍃 green tea 🍃

Improves Brain Function. Boosts Metabolism. Antioxidant Rich.

Why is green tea considered a superfood?

For thousands of years, green tea has been a staple in a health-centered diet. Green tea can aid in oral health, metabolism, cardiovascular health and even depression. One of the main reasons for all of green tea's amazing health benefits is because it contains a powerful catechin called EGCG, which is a natural antioxidant that helps prevent cell damage and can reduce the formation of free radicals in the body, which contribute to diseases like cancer, asthma, diabetes and dementia.

ANTIOXIDANT RICH GREEN TEA BLENDS:

The taste of green tea is grassy, vegetal, herbaceous and delicate! Because of its delicacy, it should not be steeped in overly hot water in order to prevent a bitter taste. We recommend adding 1 - 2 teaspoons of green tea per 8 oz of hot water (165℉ to 180℉) for 2 - 3 minutes.
