Tea, the other “Green”…
With the summer heat and added thirst, it may be easy to eliminate tea from our list of summer drinks, but you may change your mind when you discover the wonders of green tea. First we need to dispel the myth that all tea is dehydrating. Certain teas can not only hydrate like water, but they possess amazing health benefits that have been known to protect our heart and bodies against some diseases with as little as 2-8 cups a day.
Green tea is my favorite with its antioxidants and flavonoids that studies have shown to protect against heart disease, plus vitamin C along with other vitamins and benefits. Matcha green tea is known to be much higher in antioxidants than other “green” teas. So how do we tell if our tea is one with many health benefits?
