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.
