Must Try: Top 10 Things to Put in Your Tea (2023)

January 21, 2021

Must Try: Top 10 Things to Put in Your Tea (2023)

Tea tastes great with sugar, but what if you went a little outside of your comfort zone? There are a lot of delicious things to put in your tea that you may have not tried before. If you want to try a different kind of taste here are ten things other than sugar to try next time.

Honey

This one isn’t the most creative, but it is better for than sugar. The melted taste of honey in your tea cup is sweet and soothing. Honey helps your throat as well if it is sore.

Agave

For all of you health nuts out there, agave is a great way to sweeten tea. It is much better than sugar and a drop of it is enough to sweeten up the whole cup.

Lemon

Lemon juice in your green tea is an irresistible combination. Ever have a half tea, half lemonade drink? That is essentially what you are making here. It is absolutely delicious.

Mint

A mint leaf or two in your tea gives the cup an extra kick. If you want to make a refreshing iced tea, mint will get you to that goal.

Ginger

Spice up your tea with a bit of fresh ginger. Ginger helps soothe stomach aches and makes your tea a tad zesty. If normal tea is too dull for your taste buds, try this option.

Cloves and Cinnamon

Add this to your winter tea recipes collection. Spicy, refreshing and incredibly aromatic. What else can you ask for?

Chia Seeds

Chia seeds won’t change the taste of your tea much, but it will make you full when drinking your tea. If you are on the go and do not have time to grab a snack, a spoonful of these will suppress the hunger. Do not add too much because they expand in liquid!

Boba

Boba tea is delightful, especially with fruit teas. Pick these round balls up at your local Asian market to make your tea a food as well as a drink.

Alcohol

Having a hard day? A drop or two of alcohol is a great addition to your tea. Make your tea a little more fun with some hard liquid. For winter black teas, I recommend a nice bourbon.

Milk

The British had something right with this one. Milk in your teas might sound funky, but it really is good! Do not knock it until you try it.

Bonus

Ice Cream

Ice cream will do the job of both sweetening and milking your tea. If you have a sweet tooth a spoonful of vanilla or chocolate ice cream in your tea might be for you. It also helps cool down your tea if it is too hot!

Boost Your Brain Power With Black or Green Tea (2023)

No coffee required.

Getting ahead in the modern business environment typically requires more brain power than anything. For people interested in improving their mental performance similar to the movie “Limitless”, there are specific nutrients that can help. In the case of tea, we are all aware of the caffeine that can help provide focus and attention.

In addition to caffeine there is L-theanine, which is an amino acid found in tea that can have profound health effects. This article will help you understand the 4 reasons why you should use L-theanine to improve your brain health.

1. Synergetic Properties with Caffeine

Studies on caffeine and L-theanine show it there is a synergistic connection between the two. L-theanine helps enhance the focus of the caffeine, which can make it even more potent for focus and attention. Tea is a natural source of both caffeine and L-theanine, which makes it a perfect natural smart drug.

2. L-theanine Reduces Anxiety and Stress

One of the biggest impediments to successful mental performance is stress and anxiety. If you are too stressed out, there is a good chance you will be unable to perform at the right level. L-theanine is a natural amino acid that has positive effects for reducing stress and anxiety.

3. L-theanine Improves Alpha Brain Waves

Some of the best work is done with alpha brain waves. It is useful to be able to get into an “alpha” state of mind when you are trying to perform mental tasks. L-theanine is a natural way of moving into a more alpha state.

4. L-theanine Is a Natural ADD Remedy

Studies show that children who struggle with ADD and ADHD benefit from taking L-theanine. The majority of children who are going to school find that it is difficult to achieve without medications and sometimes the prescription drugs cause other problems.

These 4 reasons should be evidence enough that L-theanine is an amino acid you need in your life.

Whether it is from a great green or black tea ,or if you find it through some other means, it is a good idea to get more of it in your life. The good news? We sell both teas!

Top 10 White Tea Health Benefits / Effects (2023)

January 21, 2021

Top 10 White Tea Health Benefits / Effects (2023)

Unlike other leaves, white tea is not steamed (like green tea) or fermented (like black tea). Instead, it remains pretty much untouched, which means it also has the most grass like taste.

So what are the health benefits of this amazing and “raw” drink? Here are 10 of them.

1. White Tea Has a Lot of Antioxidants

While green tea also has the same types of antioxidants, white tea has so much more of them. Not only do they help to lower the cholesterol, they also reduce the risk of cancer.

What else do antioxidants do? They help to grow your hair, improve your blood levels, and boost your brain function.

2. It Has Antibacterial Properties

A lot antibacterial products (like hand soap) are actually made using white tea as one of the key ingredients. Of course, we don’t suggest you start drinking soap, but there is a reason why white tea extract is added. Consuming white tea reduces the chances of catching a nasty infection, as a lot of harmful microorganisms and bacteria will be killed before they can do anything.

3. It Prevents Cardiovascular Diseases

Just like fruits and vegetables, white tea also contains a lot of flavonoids (also known as bioflavonoids). As a result, white tea drinkers tend to have a lower chance of developing a cardiovascular disease or having a heart attack. Not only do flavonoids increase the strength and integrity of blood vessel walls, they also lower the risk of blood vessel problems and protect cholesterol molecules from oxygen- related damage.

4. Helps Your Nervous System

Another reason to drink white tea? It protects your nerve cells from oxygen-based damage and speeds up the nerve regeneration process, which is usually pretty slow. Since flavonoids also increase the blood flow to your brain, not only it functions better, but is also less likely to be affected by age-related diseases (such as Alzheimer’s).

5. It Has Less Caffeine

Out of all teas (with the exception of fruit or herbal teas, of course), white tea has the lowest amount of caffeine.

How does that help? Well, it means that if you have a sensitive stomach or need to reduce your caffeine intake, then a cup (or two) of white tea will be a perfect replacement.

6. Reduces the Risks of Premature Aging

No one likes to age, so how can you slow down the aging process and make yourself feel better and healthier in return? Drink some white tea. Studies have shown that white tea and its amazing properties reduces the risk of premature aging.

In addition to this, white tea contains abundant micronutrients that help to neutralize free radicals in the body. What do these free radicals do? They contribute to the acceleration of aging as well as overall damage to different organs.

7. Improves Your Oral Health

According to various studies, people who drink white tea have much better overall oral health than those who do not. This is all thanks to the amazing properties of polyphenols, tannins, and flavonoids that inhibit the overall growth of nasty bacteria that cause dental plaque.

That’s not all, though. Thanks to the fluoride content in white tea, the overall risk of tooth decay is decreased.

8. Reduces the Effects of Diabetes

Not only does the tea help prevent diabetes, but is has been specifically shown to significantly relieve various symptoms of the illness.

Studies have shown that continuous white tea drinking does wonders for those who have diabetes, including: relieving polydipsia, decreasing plasma glucose levels, increasing insulin secretion, helping with weight loss, and more.

9. White Tea Fights and Prevents Cancer

Just like green tea, white tea has cancer prevention properties. However, since it is the least processed form of tea, the effects are even more dramatic. Laboratory evidence has shown that antioxidants can both slow down and even prevent cancer.

Other research has shown that white tea extract can prevent new cancerous cell growth. This is why people who drink tea have a lower probability of developing cancer than those who do not.

10. Helps You Lose Weight

You don’t have to starve or be on some weird diet to look good. Drinking white tea will do just fine (of course, the gym is also recommended). According to recent studies, the consumption of white tea prevents the formation of fat cells.

Furthermore, white tea has shown to decrease the lifecycle of fat cells and break down existing ones.

These are just some of the amazing benefits of white tea. Ask yourself:

– Do you want to have glowing skin?
– Live longer?
– Age slower and have amazing oral health?

Then white tea is for you! Click here, grab a pack of organic white tea and enjoy its health benefits, now!

According to a Department of Genetics study, women who consume at least a few cups of black tea per day have a lower chance of ovarian cancer than those who do not. All thanks to amazing phenols and antioxidants.

Due to various antigens, black tea was found to kill bacteria that cause influenza and stomach flu. That’s not all, though – another compound (tannin) also has a remedial effect on gastric and intestinal illnesses.

It was shown in a recent study that people who consumed at least two cups of black tea per day had a 70% lower chance of developing a type 2 diabetes.

10. Reduces Stress and Improves Learning Effectiveness

Another great benefit of black tea? It reduces stress hormone levels in your body and helps you to relax when consumed at the end of the day. In fact, the amino acid found in black tea has also been shown to promote alpha wave production. What do these waves do? Slow down your heart rate, help you to become calmer, and improves your learning and memorization speed.

So having read the list, it should now be pretty obvious why drinking black tea can be extremely beneficial to your mind and your body.

It’s mind blowing that we have such an incredible variety of teas available to us. Black, oolong, green, white and of course, pu’erh.

So how exactly is this tea special and why should anyone start drinking it? Let’s find out!

1. Pu’Erh Tea Is Rich In Antioxidants

Just like many other teas, pu’erh tea also has a really healthy dose of everyone’s beloved antioxidants.

What do these antioxidants do? It would be easier to answer a different question: what do they not do? They improve your skin, prevent hair loss, prevent infections, repair damaged molecules, block metal radical production, protect your body, and so much more.

2. It Prevents Cancer

Cancer, one of the nastiest and deadliest diseases known to mankind, has something to fear. According to recent research, chemicals found in pu’erh tea decrease the chance of developing cancer.

In addition to this, some of these chemicals were also found to cause cancer cells to self-destruct (this process is called apoptosis).

3. Reduces the Chance of Stroke

In addition to keeping yourself physically active, drinking pu’erh (or other) organic teas should also be added to your daily regime.

Not only does it lower cholesterol levels but it can protect from the next heart attack (assuming you’ve had one). According to a recent study, people who have suffered a heart attack in the past and started consuming tea were 44% less likely to have another one.

4. Protects Your Teeth

Nothing could be worse than waking up in the middle of the night with a sharp tooth ache. Even worse if you don’t have any ways of makeing the pain disappear.

How do you prevent this from happening? By drinking more pue’erh tea, as it is shown to not only kill bacteria that causes tooth decay but also prevent bacteria in general from producing the awful smelling compounds that do cause the bad breath.

5. Pu’Erh Tea Helps You to Stay Fit and Sexy

It doesn’t matter whether it’s summer, winter, spring or even autumn. Having a sexy body is one of the things most desired by both men and women. In fact, we spend billions of dollars every year to look better.

By drinking pu’erh tea, you can have the best of both words. Not only does it taste good, but thanks to various antioxidants in it, your body will burn fat at a much faster rate and help you to stay fit.

6. Improves Your Immunity

Not sure about you, but when I was a kid and had to go to school, I would try to get sick and sometimes even pretend that I was sick. However, as the years went by, being sick became one of the worst things that could happen to me, especially as I have seen my work piling up. Lying in bed with a temperature no longer felt like a fun thing to do.

The good news? Thanks to various minerals and antioxidants, pu’erh tea is known to improve your immunity and help kill bacteria as a result.

7. Protects from Aging

Getting old does not feel good, especially when you pass your 30s or 40s. Although it’s not possible to stop aging completely, there is one thing you can do!

If you start drinking pu’erh tea as soon as you’ve found out that it helps to protect you from pre-mature aging, wrinkles, and even some age-related diseases, then I’m sure you will be grateful for this decision afterwards.

How do you prevent kidney stones? By drinking more tea, of course! Studies have shown that people who consumed tea throughout the day had a lower chance of developing these nasty and painful calculi.

Thankfully, pu’erh tea drinkers are less likely to develop this frustrating condition, all thanks to the anti-oxidants and minerals that are inside every hot cup of this delicious beverage.

Top 10 Reasons to Ditch Coffee and Switch to Tea (2023)

January 20, 2021

Top 10 Reasons to Ditch Coffee and Switch to Tea (2023)

I know what you are thinking, “there is no way I am giving up my coffee!” I realize most people in the world are die-hard coffee addicts, but guess what, tea is the better option! Here are the top 10 reasons you need to make the switch right now!!!

1. It Won’t Give You Coffee Breath

Coffee breath is repulsive. Most of friends have to carry around mints in their purses to hide the stench of the after effects of coffee. No one wants cuddle in the cold with someone whose breathe smells like rotten food.

2. It’s Easier Than Making Coffee

When you are rushing out of the door, but still have to give yourself 10 minutes for your coffee to brew, you are going to end up late. Tea takes half the time to make as coffee making it perfect for the on-the-go girl.

3. It’s Cheaper

If you are worried about money, but need caffeine in your day, then tea is a great option. You tend to get more bang for your buck by buying tea over the little bags of coffee beans. An iced grande coffee at Starbucks is $2.65, while an iced grande tea is only $2.25.

4. Better for the Environment

Coffee filters you use once and then throw them away. With tea you can buy it “loose leaf” and get an adorable little tea ball to work as the diffuser instead of buying tea bags. I have seen tea diffusers as boats, sea animals, flowers, etc. I have a whole drawer of tea diffusers at home, each one cuter than the latter. Also most tea companies tend to be more eco-friendly, so even if you use tea bags they are most of the time biodegradable.

5. It Won’t Stain Your Teeth

Okay this one may be a half lie because black tea does stain, but significantly less! The acidity in coffee really bad for your teeth and the dark color stains them! Green tea will not stain your teeth and some tea even has natural fluorides that protect your teeth from cavities.

6. Makes Your Bones Stronger

Have you ever broken a bone? I have and it was awful. Avoid that ever happening again and help make your bones more resilient. Tea helps to increase bone density and strength by growing more of the mineral content found in bones.

7. Keeps Your Body Healthy

I am not kidding, tea helps reduce your chances of getting diseases such as cancer, diabetes, Alzheimer’s, and Parkinson’s. It is also packed with vitamins like vitamin C, vitamin A, vitamin B1, vitamin B6, Folic Acid, Manganese, Potassium, and Fluoride. Ever heard of a green tea detox? Now you know they are supposed to be so good for you.

8. Green Tea Helps Burn Fat from Your Body

Green tea has been known to increase fat burning and boost your metabolism. There have been multiple studies about this and has been proven, so maybe you should listen to the scientists if you want to shed off the winter weight.

9. Improves Cognition

Tea is loaded with polyphenols (one of the most powerful antioxidants) that is sure to make your body live longer. These polyphenols expand your blood vessels and advances the speed of the blood to the brain.

10. It Has More Caffeine Than Coffee

Let’s be honest, the reason you drink coffee so much is because you want the caffeine that comes with it. A new study found that tea leaves actually have more caffeine than coffee. The problem is most people do not allow their tea to sit enough in the water before drinking it, making it more diluted. If you let your tea sit for an extra couple of minutes, you will be more energized than a single cup of coffee.

Top 10 Lemon Tea, Juice & Lemonade Health Benefits / Effects (2023)

January 20, 2021

Top 10 Lemon Tea, Juice & Lemonade Health Benefits / Effects (2023)

Be it on a hot summer day or cold winter evening, lemon tea is one of the most delicious and comforting drinks you can think of.

Not only that, but it’s also pretty versatile when it comes to making drinks. You can simply mix it with water or add ginger, cinnamon or other spices.

However, one might wonder, what kind of benefits does lemon tea provide?

1. Balances Our pH Levels

Despite incorrect information floating around the Internet, lemon tea is actually really important when it comes to reducing your acidity levels and restoring your pH balance.

Yes, lemons are one of the most alkalizing (not acidic) foods in the world, helping to remove uric acids from the joints and enhancing your overall health.

2. Prevents Dehydration

One of the most obvious yet worth mentioning lemon tea / lemonade health benefits is its ability to hydrate us.

As you know, our body consists of 70-75% water. Therefore, keeping yourself well-hydrated results in more energy, healthy function of vital organs, and less thick blood.

3. Fights Against Cancer

Have you heard of a compound called limonoid? As it turns out, this amazing chemical, which is found in lemons, has the ability to slow down the growth of cancerous cells and even promote their destruction. In addition to that, you can find another compound called bioflavonoid quercetin, which protects your body from free radicals and also inhibits the growth of cancer cells.

4. It’s Rich in Vitamin C

We all know that lemons and other citrus fruits have a lot of vitamin C. However, why exactly is it good for us? Other than protecting us from various bacteria and viruses, vitamin C also helps to repair bones, teeth, and blood vessels, renew skin, and more.

Furthermore, studies have shown that vitamin C decreases the risk of developing cataracts by 80%.

5. Eliminates Mouth Bacteria

What’s the secret for an amazing first kiss? Fresh breath. So if you are on a date, consider drinking lemon tea, which has been shown to destroy mouth bacteria causing bad breath.

However, be sure to drink some water afterwards as well, which will protect your teeth from enamel erosion.

6. Lemons Make Us Smile More

Not only does a cup of warm lemon tea have the power to comfort us during cold days, it also has the a power to makes us happier.

Just smelling a lemon or a lime alone will bring a smile to your face, thanks to the amazing aroma. There is a reason why people tend to love lemon scented oils and candles.

7. Helps to Stay Fit and Sexy

Since lemon tea and lemonade allows the body to keep alkaline levels healthy, the calories will burn much faster and easier.

According to recent studies, when these levels are abnormal (due to pizzas, burgers, soft drinks and coffee), we become inefficient at losing weight and actually have a harder time doing so. Obviously, a proper workout routine is also recommended if you want to develop a sexy butt or abs.

8. Does Wonders for Our Digestive Tract

When it comes to digestion, lemons are truly a miraculous fruit. In addition to helping your liver and kidneys to do their job properly, lemon tea also aids in producing acids that are required for an efficient digestion process.

In addition to that, lemon juice is known to flush out the toxins from your digestive tract and relieve bloating, heartburn, and even acid reflux symptoms.

9. Flushes Toxins from Your Body

Digestive tract toxins are not the only toxins that this sour, yet delicious, beverage helps your body to get rid of. In fact, lemon tea and / or lemon water is a wonderful diuretic that will naturally clean (and improve) your blood, kidneys, bladder and other important organs.

That’s not all though. Lemons are also much easier on your system when it comes to digestion, and don’t make your body work hard, unlike store-bought diuretics.

10. Improves Your Skin

When it comes to clear and beautiful skin, many turn to lemon juice and / or honey. There is a reason for that. Due to a high level of acidic Vitamin C and antioxidants that are absorbed by your body, your skin will become much healthier and acne free.

Furthermore, the special compounds that are found in lemons are also known to increase the firmness of one’s skin, promote scar healing and new skin cells regeneration.

I am sure you don’t really need any reasons to keep on drinking this tasty beverage. However, now that you have learned much more about the benefits of lemon tea and juice, we suggest you grab some organic and naturally dried lemon pieces straight from our store!
