Tea: How Is White Persian Melon Tea Different From Other Teas?

If you're new to drinking white tea, you may be unaware of the

many positive health differences between white tea and black tea.

And, White Persian melon tea offers even more health benefits

than regular white tea.

The health differences between white and black tea is primarily

related to their anti-oxidant content. Tea leaves are naturally

rich in some of the most powerful anti-oxidants on earth.

Anti-oxidants are important to our health because they combat

free radicals in our bodies. Free radicals are a natural

by-product of our digestive processes, but left unchecked they

damage our cells and DNA. Damaged cells and DNA lead to aging and

serious illnesses like heart disease and cancer.

While all tea leaves are naturally anti-oxidant rich in the

beginning, tea processing changes some of the anti-oxidants into

different forms that are not as healthy as the originals. Black

tea is the most processed of all teas, going through a

fermentation process. Green tea leaves are rolled, but skip the

fermentation process.

White tea leaves are not rolled or cut, but simply plucked,

withered and steamed or fired. Because green and white teas are

not fermented, they retain more of their anti-oxidants in natural

form. Because white tea is not rolled, it is processed even less

than green tea, so that it retains the highest number of original

anti-oxidants.

This makes white tea the healthiest you can drink. The

anti-oxidants in white tea, often referred to as catechins, can

help eradicate free radicals from our bodies. It is this process

that protects us from disease and helps slow down the aging

process. Cultures with diets heavy in green and white tea have

lower incidences of heart disease, cancer, and high blood

pressure.

The catechins in tea have also been shown to be effective in

helping with weight loss. For years, we have known that caffeine

has the ability to speed up the metabolism. Tea was used to help

with weight loss because it contained caffeine. However, recent

studies have shown that tea is more effective at promoting weight

loss than other caffeinated beverages, even those that contained

a higher caffeine content.

So, researchers have concluded that it is the combination of

caffeine and green and white tea's catechins that make it a more

effective weight loss supplement. The catechins in tea appear to

help speed up the oxidation of fat, not just the metabolism.

White Persian melon tea offers benefits even greater than those

of plain white tea. In addition to the anti-oxidants found in all

white teas, white Persian melon tea has health benefits because

of the added melon nectar. Melons are also a powerful

anti-oxidant source, and contain a particular anti-oxidant known

as GliSODdin. GliSODin neutralizes some of the most powerful free

radicals in our bodies and stimulates our bodies to make its own

anti-oxidants. This is especially important because scientists

believe that the anti-oxidants produced in our bodies are more

effective at destroying free radicals than those we ingest from

our diets.

So, melons give us a double dose of health benefit. We receive

benefit directly from the melon's anti-oxidants, but the melons

also stimulate our own bodies to make even stronger anti-oxidants

than those in the melon.

Melons are an excellent source of vitamins A and C, beta carotene

and potassium. It also contains lycopene, which is one of the

most powerful anti-oxidants, and is one not found in tea. In

addition, melons have an anti-clotting effect on the blood. This

makes it effective in preventing blood clots, which is one of the

leading causes of heart attacks.

Therefore, because of the anti-oxidants and anti-clotting action

of melons, they may be one of the best foods for those at high

risk of heart disease.

White tea and melon make a powerful combination, and may be one

of the healthiest teas you can drink. A steady diet of white

Persian melon tea may be a very effective way to protect your

heart health.

And, the best news is that white Persian melon tea is delicious.

The combination of sweet and delicate white tea with fruity and

refreshing melon makes it a delicious drink that's unlike the

flavor of any other white tea. In fact, if you've found plain

white tea a little too mild for your liking, you may find that

you love white Persian melon tea. The addition of the melon

nectar gives this white tea more flavor than many others.

White Persian melon tea is equally delicious whether enjoyed hot

or cold. This makes it even easier to get a daily dose. Brew it

hot in the winter and ice it down in the summer.

If you've never tried white Persian melon tea, you're missing a

real treat. And, if you have avoided buying the highest quality

white teas because you believe it to be too expensive, take

another look. Buying high quality loose teas in bulk from a

quality tea purveyor is still relatively inexpensive compared to

many other beverages.

You can enjoy white Persian melon tea for less than .50 a cup,

which is typically less than the cost of soda, which has

absolutely no health benefits!

So, drink up! White Persian melon tea is one of the most

delicious and refreshing you can buy, and it's one of the

healthiest as well. You're sure to love this delicious

alternative to other white teas.
