Caffeine
Speciali-Tea, on average, contains a third of the amount of caffeine found in filtered coffee and significantly less than an espresso.
Speciali-Tea & Health:
The health benefits of drinking tea are legendary. Scientific research, on the effects of drinking tea, backup those legends and the results are startling:-
Prevention of Cancer, Strokes & Heart disease
Research suggests that natural plant chemicals called ‘Polyphenols' found in tea may be responsible for preventing certain cancers, heart disease and strokes. Polyphenols are thought to counteract free radicals which promote the mechanism of cell damage.[1]
Prevent Tooth Decay
The tea is a very rich natural source of fluoride.[2]
Which Tea is Healthier?
Although Green tea contains more of the helpful ‘catechins', reports have found that Blacks, Oolongs and Whites are as beneficial as Green tea.[3] At the Speciali-Tea Bar we take an active role in helping you try a variety of these high quality teas. That's why for every order you place with us, we give you a FREE sample of a different tea.
