Chinese people have taken this to the level of art and science. Different types of tea offer natural relaxation and at the same time cures ailments. We had the privilege of sampling all the different forms of tea during an informative demonstration by a tea-expert at the Dr.Tea House in Beijing.
White Tea: Initial sips taste bitter but
amazingly changes into sweet. It helps common cold and yes, constipation!
Green Golden Tea: There are fourteen different elements known to be
present in the green golden tea, such as Magnesium, Calcium, Zinc, etc. This tea
offers relief from hypertension, high blood pressure and cholesterol. Green
Golden Tea with a bit of honey puts everyone to sleep like a baby!
Oriental Beauty Tea (The King of O'long tea): This is a natural healer.
People suffering with anemia are recommended to drink this tea with few dates
after dinner. It also helps women improve the skin texture. Indigestive pains
are gone like magic. Diabetics are suggested to drink this daily before retiring
to bed.
Jasmine Tea: This is known as a repository of vitamins. Jasmine tea is
popular among people with eye-sight problems.
Black Tea: Increases appetite and is generally offered with a slice of
lemon.
