February 24, 20204.2K views0 comments

To a large extent, tea helps the body fight cold, reduce calories and promotes good sleep. True tea is derived from Camellia sinensis plant leaves. While there are many types of teas, the difference is in the method of processing. The leaves either undergoes full fermentation, partial fermentation or no fermentation. On the other hand, herbal tea which is now common is made from herbs, spices, dried fruits, and flowers. There are numerous researches which show that drinking tea can actually improve one’s health. For instance, scientists have found that catechins (antioxidants) in tea increase the body’s ability to burn fat, and enhances muscle functioning. Tea is a good no-calorie alternative to water, which provides numerous flavour varieties, and can be enjoyed hot or cold.

It is important to note that every tea is made different. In order to get the most benefits from tea, it is essential to choose the right tea for your body needs. To guide you, here are the seven (7) best and most popular teas in Nigeria.
