Tea is a Great Natural Remedy

I have come to realize over the past several years the powerful effect tea can have on your health and wellbeing. Once I experienced the many amazing health benefits, I was hooked. Now I love sipping on a warm cup of green or oolong tea. Sometimes I add a slice of lemon. Or try a nice mango or tangerine blend. Don’t wait until your health is in distress, to discover this hidden gem.

So what is Tea?

Traditional teas all come from varieties of the camellia sinensis plant. That includes black, green, oolong, white and pu-erh. The difference lies in the preparation process after the leaves are harvested. Pu-erh tea is the only one to be fermented and is made from green or black tea.

Herbal teas are not technically tea because there are no tea leaves from the camellia sinensis plant. Herbals include herbs, botanicals and fruits. 

Blends are also increasingly popular and include traditional teas blended with herbal varieties. 

Now that we have a basic understanding of this amazing drink, let’s discuss just a few ways it can help your health and wellbeing.

Anti-inflammatory teas

Chronic inflammation is a contributor to many of today’s health issues such as arthritis (inflammation of the joints), heart disease (inflammation of the arteries) and many others such as asthma. Inflammation is part of the body’s natural immune response and not always bad. The issue arises when the inflammation continues on for longer than necessary, it can cause more harm than good. There are things you can do to reduce inflammation such as avoid sugar, processed foods and refined flours. And of course you can drink tea!

Some teas that help the body to reduce inflammation are:
