Green Tea: It’s good for you

Legend has it that tea was discovered by Emperor Shen-nung in 2737 BC when tea leaves accidentally fell into his cup of hot water to drink. This resulted to having a pleasant flavor and has since been associated with positive health benefits.

A great natural source of antioxidants among these flavored drinks to help protect the body from damages caused by free radicals is green tea, a light and refreshing tasting tea that is golden-green in color. It is a beverage perfect to drink in the morning for a fresh start to the day or after every meal if required to help digestion.

To make just the right green tea taste, brew for approximately 2 to 3 minutes for a stronger preference or 30 seconds to one minute for a milder one. Note that overbrewing may cause some bitterness and may ruin the taste.

There are so many potential qualities and numerous health benefits from green tea in connection to better digestion and lowering cholesterol levels. Green tea has very positive effects on the vital organs and also incredibly serves as a good alternative skin-care product.

Replacing coffee with green tea is the better option. I will now finish the remaining green tea in my cup to feel calm but energized!
