All teas are made from the leaves of the Camellia sinensis bush. Green tea is no exception. However green tea's leaf isn't withered or broken at all. The tea leaves are steamed almost immediately after they are picked to avoid oxidation. They are rolled and dried after steaming. This process is to prevent green tea from fermenting. Drinking green tea has become an important part of people's daily life in those nations. Recently, green tea has become more popular in the West because of its outstanding health merits. There are many varieties of green tea created in the regions where they are grown. These varieties can differ substantially in taste, grade, quality and price due to different climates, soils, growing conditions, horticulture, production processing and harvesting time. Therefore almost everyone is sure to find his or her favorite green tea brand. Over the last few decades green tea has been subjected to many scientific and medical studies to determine the extent of its long-purported health benefits. More and more evidences suggest that regular and consistent green tea drinking has numerous health benefits. These benefits include (not limited to) to lower the chances of getting heart diseases and stroke, prevent and help cure certain types of cancer (breast cancer, skin cancer) help raise metabolism to aid in weight loss, protect skin, face and hair, strengthen bones and joints, and fight cold and flu.

Abstract


All teas are made from the leaves of the Camellia sinensis bush. Green tea is no exception. However green tea's leaf isn't withered or broken at all. The tea leaves are steamed almost immediately after they are picked to avoid oxidation. They are rolled and dried after steaming. This process is to prevent green tea from fermenting. Drinking green tea has become an important part of people's daily life in those nations. Recently, green tea has become more popular in the West because of its outstanding health merits. There are many varieties of green tea created in the regions where they are grown. These varieties can differ substantially in taste, grade, quality and price due to different climates, soils, growing conditions, horticulture, production processing and harvesting time. Therefore almost everyone is sure to find his or her favorite green tea brand. Over the last few decades green tea has been subjected to many scientific and medical studies to determine the extent of its long-purported health benefits. More and more evidences suggest that regular and consistent green tea drinking has numerous health benefits. These benefits include (not limited to) to lower the chances of getting heart diseases and stroke, prevent and help cure certain types of cancer (breast cancer, skin cancer) help raise metabolism to aid in weight loss, protect skin, face and hair, strengthen bones and joints, and fight cold and flu.
