GREEN TEA
Tea is one of the civilized world’s most
treasured beverages. Not only is it something with which you quench your
thirst, its introduction into society spawned a variety of social
occasions, from afternoon tea amongst the ladies, to the first
teahouses, where one could sit down and refresh themselves while
shopping or out for a promenade.
But its origins as a beverage
date back much
farther than the last two or three centuries. The ancient Chinese
Emperor Shen Nung, being a wise man, had decreed that all water be
boiled before it was used for drinking.
While he was on a journey, and his caravan stopped along the
road, a servant was boiling their water, when leaves from the hedge
nearby fell into the pot. The result was a dark, aromatic brew with a
pleasing flavor. The Emperor then had the bushes transplanted to his
palace, where he encouraged the cultivation of what turned out to be,
tea.
Soon, the benefit of green tea would become a large
part of Chinese Traditional Medicine, in a philosophy that expressed
itself by saying it is better to drink green tea, than to take
medicine.” For CTM
stressed prevention and maintenance of one’s body, keeping the ying
and yang in balance, so that it was then in harmony with the rest of the
world. Green tea health
benefits, made it a major component in the pharmacology of Chinese
medicine.
Why Health King Green Tea?
Health King Green Tea ensures that you get the
utmost benefit of green tea, by using only the very first picking of
leaves from tea bushes. Our
green tea contains nothing but pure, tender, freshly hand-picked leaves
from bushes growing in the pollution free environment of northern China, and a dash of jasmine flower to add to the pleasing essence.
From the highly prized Chinese green tea
leaves, we
derive polyphenols, among whose properties are the ability to block
enzymes that cancers need to flourish.
They also protect cells from reactive atoms that contribute to
tissue damage.
Catechins are another important benefit of green
tea, because of their ability to lower cholesterol, a fact recognized by
the American Medical Association. Consumers have also found that with
our Diet Master blend, which has a large proportion of green tea, weight
loss becomes easier.
The anti-oxidant properties of our green tea are so
powerful, that they total more than those found in nearly two dozen
fruits and vegetables. Green
tea health benefits are significantly higher than that of black or
oolong, specifically because of the higher anti-oxidant content.
Most green teas you find in the supermarket do not
have additional supportive enzymes or proprietary
recipes that have been handed down for thousands of years.
But Health King green tea does. You'll see an
immediate difference with just one box.
