Teas are essential to me.

I have always loved drinking tea, aside from tea being absolutely delicious and relaxing, it is extremely beneficial to your health. Teas can help ease symptoms of health problems or any type of symptomatic dilemma you might be having.

These are the type of teas I drink and I will add common problems that you might be having, and how tea can relieve some of those symptoms for you.

My favorite tea:

Green tea

Benefits

Green tea is loaded with anti-oxidants that can reduce formation of free radicals in the body, antioxidants protect cells and molecules from damage. Free radicals are known to play a role in aging (who doesn’t want to slow down the aging process?)

It improves brain function due to the caffeine. Look- I am all for caffeine in moderate usage. There are a lot of back and forth studies to caffeine wether it be good or bad. All I know is that I find it extremely beneficial to my health. Green tea is different from coffee is it has that amino acid called L theanine, it increases GABA, which has anti anxiety effects and increases dopamine in the brain……who needs xanax or ativan, when you can just brew yourself some delicious green tea.

It aids in weight loss, now don’t get this twisted. It does not MAKE you lose weight, you have to have proper diet and exercise to lose weight, its simple mathematics, burn more than what you consume. Green tea simply gives your metabolism a boost by mobilizing your fatty acids. If you’re trying to lose weight, please don’t order a double cheeseburger with fries and a side of green tea. LOL

My favorite brand that i recommend. This has no bitter aftertaste, it is very very sweet and i have been drinking it for years now without getting tired of it ( I purchase mine on amazon.com) They have a great deal for a 6 pack at $23 individuals are around $7.
