Is White Tea The Fountain of Youth?

8/22/2016

 
White tea could help you live a longer life, a study has found.  Antioxidants contained in white tea may help reduce your risk for skin aging, cancer and arthritis.  White tea is uncured and unfermented.  One study has found that white tea has more cancer-fighting  properties than other more processed teas.  Other studies show that white tea thins the blood and improves artery function, thereby reducing the risk of stroke.

White tea also contains a specific type of antioxidant called Catechins.  Catechins actually lower bad cholesterol and increase good cholesterol.  This helps prevent hardening of the arteries.  Researchers have also discovered that people who drink 2 or more cups of tea a day are 50% less likely to die after a heart attack. 
​White tea has been found in some studies to  increase bone density.  White tea also contains antibacterial and antiviral properties, which improves your immune system function.  This helps your body guard against the common cold and flu.  It also kills the bacteria that cause tooth decay and plaque.  A cup of tea a day could make a difference in your health and beauty!
