Reasons Why You Should Buy Organic Black Tea
People drink tea for a multitude of reasons - maybe it's a habit, perhaps they simply love the flavour, or they want to reap the health benefits that tea provides. Drinking tea is a good habit to get into, and for some people, it's the first thing they reach for in the mornings, or the number one refreshment that is offered to a visitor upon arrival (and it doesn't have to be after a long journey!).
If you love the flavour of a great cuppa, or you are drinking tea for health reasons, it is wise to make sure you choose organic black tea when you buy it. Being free of synthetic fertilizers, herbicides and pesticides means your tea will have grown naturally and possess a much greater amount of antioxidants than regular tea. Antioxidants boost your immune system and aid in fighting diseases, they also reduce the risk of heart disease and may help prevent some cancers. No wonder black tea is the most popular type of tea in the world!
What Makes Black Tea So Special?
The four types of tea made from the leaves of the camellia sinensis plant are green, oolong, white and black, and the difference between these types of teas all boils down to the way they are processed. Only black tea undergoes an extensive oxidation process where special antioxidants called theaflavins are produced and these are found in no other type of tea. Experts believe it is these theaflavins that give black tea some unique extra health benefits found in no other types of sleep tea.
Why not order your organic black tea online from Teavision and ensure you never run short of this wonderful beverage? Our tea is top quality which means not only will it taste great, but it will provide you with all the health benefits black tea online has to offer.
Advantages Of Drinking Loose Leaf Black Tea
The health benefits associated with drinking most teas come from polyphenols, which are antioxidants that offer protection from several chronic diseases. Flavonoids - the same antioxidants that can be found in red wine and dark chocolate - may help reduce the risk of heart disease and actually lower blood pressure (which may potentially reduce the risk of heart attacks and strokes).
Theaflavins are a group of polyphenols unique only to black tea and are produced due to the extensive oxidation process black tea leaves go through during their production. They are thought to lower both blood pressure and cholesterol and give black tea an advantage over the other three types of teas that are produced from the leaves of the Camillia sinensis plant. Green tea receives no oxidation in its production, and oolong and white teas only undergo partial oxidation, making theaflavins unique to black tea.
The Best Way To Drink Black Tea Leaves
If you want to reap all the benefits of drinking black tea, then loose leaf black tea is the only way to go! The loose leaf tea online provides a milder flavour than tea bags and as it is less processed, you can generally retains higher levels of antioxidants. Also, bulk black tea are made with whole or partial tea leaves and have a more natural aroma.
Black tea contains caffeine (about half the amount of coffee), which on its own can induce a jittery type of energy, but black tea also contains an amino acid called L-theanine, which when combined with the caffeine produces a more balanced energy level that may help with focus and alertness.
Whether you prefer tea bags or bulk black tea, the benefits are plain to see, and it's no wonder black tea is the most popular type of tea in the world!
Are You Looking for Bulk Black Tea Online?
Until recently, most of the research into the plentiful health benefits of tea had focused on green tea; but with more research recently being conducted into the positive effects of black tea on physical and mental health, more and more people are starting to embrace black tea as a kind of ‘super-beverage’ which is an extremely beneficial supplement to a healthy lifestyle.
But most people who regularly drink black tea do so for the taste, and whether you own or manage a small café or a large firm, you’ll already know the importance of providing quality black tea for your customers and/or business associates.
In order to keep up with the demand, many businesses end up spending large sums of money only to get mediocre quality tea – so it’s well worth spending some time finding the right tea shop in Australia.
