Green tea, also known as unoxidized tea, is made solely from the leaves of the camellia sinensis plant. The leaves are plucked, slightly withered, then immediately cooked to preserve the green quality and prevent oxidation. As a result of these methods, green teas have a much higher concentration of chlorophyll, polyphenols, and antioxidants than other tea types. The growing conditions for green tea can be broken down between two different types: sun-grown and shade-grown. The leaves are generally harvested three times a year with the first flush producing the highest quality leaves. The heating process differs greatly depending on the region and the tea maker’s techniques
Benefits of Green Tea
According to the National Institutes of Health Center for Complementary and Integrative Health, green tea may provide a boost of mental alertness, most likely due to the caffeine content of the beverage. According to a review published in 2015, there is also some evidence that it may optimize cardiovascular health, reduce blood pressure, and reduce cholesterol.
An analysis of previous studies published in 2016 found that green tea consumption was associated with a lower risk of heart disease and stroke.
Many people believe that green tea helps them to lose weight or maintain a healthy weight. However, studies have not been able to prove that green tea is an effective weight loss aid.
Available Grades of Green Tea

Some people also call it Chinese gunpowder tea. |
