Earl Grey Tea – Loose Black Tea Blend from 100% Nature,
If you’re a tea drinker, you may have heard of or tried Earl Grey tea, a blend of different Chinese teas with some added citrus flavor. Named for a 19th-century English prime minister, Earl Charles Grey, it’s a flavorful, aromatic blend that could also provide significant health benefits because of its content of natural, biologically active compounds. Components LIke all traditional teas, Earl Grey tea leaves come from the tea plant — Camellia sinensis — and contain compounds that belong to a class of natural chemicals called flavonoids and flavonols. The leaves are dried and rolled to produce black teas such as Earl Grey, a process that promotes formation of additional potentially healthy compounds called theaflavins and thearubigins. Many of these tea components are potent antioxidants that may help protect you from chronic problems such as cancer and cardiovascular disease, according to research summarized by experts at the Linus Pauling Institute. Beneficial Effects Results of research into black tea such as Earl Grey support its ability to help keep you healthy and disease-free. Studies such as one published in the September 2001 issue of “Journal of Nutrition” suggest that this may be due at least in part to the antioxidant properties of theaflavins and other tea flavonoids. Antioxidants help your body rid itself of unstable, potentially harmful molecules called free radicals that form during digestion, in your skin when you’re in sunlight or in your organs after exposure to toxins. A large study published in the November 2012 issue of the “American Journal of Clinical Nutrition” found that, among 69,000 female subjects, those who drank at least 3 cups of tea weekly had a significantly lower risk of digestive system cancer than women who weren’t tea drinkers, although studies that identify a direct link between tea and lower rates of disease are still needed. Steep at 180° for 2-3 minutes.
