White Tea Has More Anti–Oxidants
By Fiona Harker
Green tea is a well–known beverage, both for it’s unique flavor
and for the healthful benefits that have been widely reported
about it.
While it is almost constantly in the news and prominently featured
in advertising, white tea is seldom heard about and it is not
commonly thought of as having healing properties, although it
does and in even greater concentration than in the green teas.
White tea comes from the same plant that produces green teas
and black tea, and is a specialty of the Fujian province in Southern
China. It is unique in that this tea is considered the youngest
of all teas because it is made from the new growth buds of the
Camellia sinensis plant.
Because it is made from these immature leaves, which are plucked
just before the buds have a chance to fully open it is more scarce,
and more expensive, than the other types of tea that come from
the same plant.

The Smooth And Delicate Taste Of White Tea
After the buds are harvested they undergo very little processing
and no fermentation at all, and those tea drinkers who are able
to acquire it seem to prefer it over other teas for it’s smooth
and delicate taste.
While there is still much research to be done to verify reports,
it is thought that, just as green teas are more powerful in it’s
health giving properties than black tea because it goes through
less processing, white tea has even more potent healing effects
because of its’ purity and the fact that its’ components are most
close to how nature created them.
White Tea May Have The Greatest Health Benefits
Recent research that has been conducted revealed results that
indicate that white tea potentially has the greatest potential
for health benefits of any of the teas that are derived from the
Camellia sinensis plant.
It is known that white tea is packed full of anti–oxidants, which
are known to be very effective in combating free radicals and
the considerable damage that they do to every function and system
in the body.
A Natural Source Of Anti–Oxidants
A potent source of anti–oxidant, that is natural and without
any observed side effects, can undoubtedly be beneficial to the
body, even without having further research on specific areas.
According to various studies, the EGCG found in green and white
tea can block mutation of cells, reducing cell damage; can inhibit
growth of tumors; and can block liver enzymes which convert pro–carcinogens.
Other benefits that have been reported are enhancing immune response,
balancing and protecting the liver, slowing the aging process
and beautifying skin, and inhibiting tooth decay.

Did You Know?
Why is green tea good for me?
Green tea contains a number of components
that are good for the body.
Some of these things are epigallocatechin gallate, or EGCg, which
is an anti–oxidant that is known to be very powerful, bioflavonoids
that can performance, and it also contains catechins which are
helpful in promoting many positive effects on health and healing.
Some of the reported benefits include reducing cholesterol levels,
being an anti–cancer agent, improving the immune system, eliminating
acne and skin disorders, and preventing cavities and tooth decay.
Because of all of these beneficial properties, and many others,
it is no wonder that green tea has been used for thousands of
years in Chinese medicine.
