Health Benefits

White teas consist of only youngest buds of the Camellia Sinensis plant. They are plucked and immediately dried in the sun or by steam. White teas are rare and only available in limited quantity and therefore we are still finding out much about the benefits of this type of tea. However, the variety of tea plant used to produce White Tea has shown to be richer in Antioxidants and lower in caffeine than Green Tea. Included within the antioxidant polyphenol class are flavonoids and catechins. A kind of flavonoid, catechins are found in tealeaves and provide protective antioxidant action against harmful free radicals. These free radicals cause heart disease, some kinds of cancer and increase the risk of strokes. Research continues to show drinking tea with its varying antioxidant levels help protect the body by combating dangerous free radical activity.
