THE BENEFITS OF “WHOLE LEAF” TEA
What is loose leaf, also known as whole leaf tea, and what are the benefits of drinking it? Did you know that drinking a good, quality tea is healthy? All tea is rich in vitamins, nutrients, antioxidants and even anti-bacterial properties; however, each type of tea has its own specific benefits, as well!
Check this out:
OOLONG tea is known for positive effects with brain health, weight loss, inflammation and lowers the risk of diabetes.
GREEN tea is relative to treatment for memory loss, metabolism, cancer prevention and dental health.
BLACK teas are great for digestion, immunity, energy levels and heart health.
ROOIBOS teas improve the appearance of skin, is a mild pain reliever, helps digestion, heart health, weight loss and has been used to lower the risk of diabetes and helping to build strong bones.
HERBAL teas, otherwise known as “tisane” do not actually contain tea…they are comprised of herbs, seeds, berries, bark and florals such as chamomile flowers and orange blossoms. They are delightful! Due to the fact that there is no actual “tea” in an herbal tea, they are typically decaffeinated and are amazing for sleep, your immune system and different types of inflammation specific to each tisane.
WHAT IS GOOD QUALITY TEA?
Funny you should ask! Well, there is definitely a difference.
