Tea



Thanks, Gloria!
Have tea!

The properties of tea are well known in ancient cultures such as China and India.
Tea comes from the Camellia Sinensis plant known since ancient times. Tea was already used in Chinese medicine for its many properties:

• It promotes alertness and reduces sleep

• It fights cholesterol• It trims fat
• It prevents tooth decay
• It extends life
• It heals fistulas
• It has cancer prevention effects
• It mitigates the effects of alcohol
• It promotes perspiration
• It has a laxative effect
Chinese medicine claims tea has all these properties. Now, studies in modern medicine verify that drinking tea regularly is a good preventive medicine. Green tea for example is shown in many studies to be effective in preventing such cancers.
