People worldwide have been drinking tea for thousands of centuries; over time, studies have elucidated the wellness benefits of tea consumption. Tea is known to boost the immune system, fight off inflammation, and even ward off heart disease. While some brews provide more health advantages than others, there's plenty of evidence that regularly drinking tea can have a lasting impact on overall well-being.
Flavonoids present in tea are a class of compounds with significant antioxidant qualities and the ability to minimise radical damage. Tea also contains catechins which help to control blood pressure, control weight loss, and improve mental health. Some teas are best known for being richer in vitamins than other beverages and are beneficial to health when consumed regularly. Caffeine, which is naturally present in tea leaves, is helpful in preventing hangovers because it accelerates the digestion of alcohol more quickly. Caffeinated and herbal tea variants contain minerals like potassium, phosphorus, magnesium, sodium, copper, and zinc. However, the exact quantity differs based on the age of the tea plant and the environment and climate it grows in.
In this feature, we have curated a list of teas best known for their therapeutic and wellness properties for the overall good health of the mind and body.
