Tea-The Unknown

Growing up in India, tea was a must as a daily morning beverage without too much focus on its health benefits. Tea was consumed mainly to get energized and for doing small talks with friends and family. It was and still continues to be a daily ritual in the morning and evening, a drink commonly served to house guests.

The practice in my house had started with “Black Tea,” mostly loose leaves. Hailing from the region close to Darjeeling,” the champagne” of tea had its place in our home, and to date, we try to source pure Darjeeling tea from the hills of West Bengal.

With time, we got introduced to other forms of tea; green tea topped the list due to its positive health impacts. Slowly we got used to white and oolong to get the sweet and light muscatel flavor.

As I sip my favorite tea daily, I am still amazed by so many articles and studies being conducted on the health benefits of tea.

Green tea benefits are well studied and are very popular among the “health and wellness” community. Green tea antioxidants provide great health benefits as well as it is less in caffeine content than “Black tea”

Although I have highlighted in few blogs about Tea benefits, but I am still looking to dig deep into this aspect. I continue to research, and as I do so, I will share some interesting articles and studies on this forefront. I hope you can join me in unfolding the mystery of why and how tea improves health!

There are some well-established facts published in known publications, which can be used theoretically to sip tea purely for health purposes, otherwise, join me in enjoying tea for the pure love and joy it delivers!
