green tea
Green tea is one of the main tea leaves in China, which refers to a beverage made from the new leaves or buds of tea trees without fermentation, and through the processes of enzyme fixation, shaping and drying. The color of the finished product and the brewed tea soup retain the green style of new tea. Drinking green tea regularly can prevent cancer, reduce fat and lose weight, and also reduce the harm of nicotine to smokers.
Without fermentation, green tea retains the natural substances of fresh leaves, and contains many nutrients such as tea polyphenols, catechins, chlorophyll, caffeine, amino acids and vitamins. These natural nutrients in green tea have special effects of anti-aging, anti-cancer, sterilization and anti-inflammation, which are beyond the reach of other teas.

honey
Bees take nectar or secretions with water content of about 75% from plant flowers and store them in the second stomach. Under the action of various transformations in the body, after 15 days, various vitamins, minerals and amino acids are repeatedly brewed to a certain value, and at the same time, the polysaccharide in nectar is transformed into monosaccharide glucose and fructose which can be directly absorbed by the human body, and the water content is less than 23%, which is stored in the nest and sealed with beeswax. Honey is a supersaturated solution of sugar, which will crystallize at low temperature, glucose will crystallize, and fructose is the main part that does not crystallize.
Natural honey containing active enzymes should not be heated above 60 degrees Celsius, otherwise high temperature will denature and inactivate the active enzymes and destroy the nutrients in it. Honey tastes sweet when brewed in warm or cold water, but it turns sour when brewed at higher temperature.
