Tea isn't just a yummy warm (or iced!) drink. There are serious health benefits to drinking tea.
Some of the overarching benefits include antioxidants, vitamins, aiding in weight loss and helping prevent cancer. See the health benefits of each type of tea below.
Black tea is great for heart health and can help lower cholesterol and reduce blood pressure. It contains about 1/3 the amount of caffeine in a cup of coffee which lowers your risk of caffeine-related issues such as high blood pressure and digestive issues.
White tea is known for it's anti-aging benefits. It's rich in polyphenols that help neutralize free radicals keeping your skin glowing and looking young and healthy. It contains a very high number of antioxidants and aids in lowering blood pressure.
Green tea is our top pick for digestive issues and sickness. Green tea contains high levels of antioxidants and is great for calming stomachs. Try a hot green tea for sore throats and fevers. It can also aid in weight loss.
Keep hearing about matcha? Matcha has all the health benefits of green tea times 10 because you're consuming the actual leaves in a dissolvable powder form. One scoop of matcha powder goes right in your cup for an amazing amount of concentrated benefits!
Rooibos tea contains high levels of antioxidants, is naturally caffeine-free and helps aid in digestion, combating diabetes, and has great vitamins that support strong bones and hair.
There are far too many health benefits to herbs than we can count! Herbs have been used for thousands of years to cure almost anything. The benefit of drinking them is that they're just plain yummy! Some great varieties we offer include Throat Therapy, Immui-Tea, Happy Tea and Turmeric Bliss. Turmeric is one of the most well-known and loved herbs as it contains amazing anti-inflammatory and cancer-fighting properties.
There's no mistaking that tea is definitely a healthy choice. Drinking tea as a replacement to other unhealthy options like soda, energy drinks, or artificially flavored coffee drinks offer dozens of other health benefits. Make sure your tea is always organic and 100% natural (like Simplicity and Co. Tea) to ensure you're getting all the good stuff and none of the bad!
