What are the Benefits of Green Tea?

Originally from Southeast Asia, the tea plant is a resilient evergreen that—unlike familiar fir trees—never loses its leaves. It flourishes at elevations between 1,000 and 2,000 meters, thriving in warm, humid climates.

Celebrated for more than 5,000 years in China, green tea has long been prized as a powerful healing herb. Unlike black tea, it isn’t fermented, which preserves a higher concentration of antioxidants. Whether enjoyed plain or flavored, green tea remains a timeless favorite around the globe, valued for its antioxidant and metabolism-boosting properties, as well as its gentle caffeine content.

Beyond a soothing beverage with great health benefits, green tea shines as a cosmetic powerhouse. Its rich polyphenol content delivers multiple skin benefits:

• Hydration & Protection: Antioxidants help lock in moisture and defend against free radicals, the main culprits behind premature aging.
• Firmness & Elasticity: Consistent use can help maintain a youthful, supple complexion.
• Calming & Purifying: Green tea’s natural compounds soothe irritation and help detoxify pores.

In short, green tea is a multitasking marvel—for both your health and your skin!
