4 types of tea that may help you live longer:
(and why)
Chamomile Tea may help you live longer because of a compound called "apigenin."
Apigenin has been shown to:
→Improve immunity
→Boost brain function
→Improve heart health
→Reduce pain & anxiety
...and chamomile tea may help increase deep sleep.
Good sleep = good health!
Pu-erh is a fermented tea that may help you live longer because of it's cleansing properties.
It's been shown to:
→Cleanse toxins
→Lower cholesterol
→Lower inflammation
→Protect the nervous system
→Provide healthy gut bacteria
It contains caffeine - so avoid it at night!
Turmeric + ginger tea may help you live longer because it's loaded with inflammation-fighting compounds.
It's been shown to:
→Help cleanse toxins
→Protect & heal the gut
→Reduce pain & nausea
→Improve blood sugar control
Add some lemon for extra taste & benefits!
Roibos tea may help you live longer by improving your immune system.
It's been shown to:
→Improve blood pressure
→Protect your bone health
→Help regulate cholesterol
→Improve allergy symptoms
Add some cinnamon sticks for extra taste & benefits!
Tip for my fellow tea drinkers out there:
Get yourself a metal reusable tea-bag.
Many common tea bags contain micro-plastics that you'll be drinking when you steep your tea.
Plus loose leaf tea is cheaper & you can find great organic options in bulk!
Win-win-win.
Most varieties of green tea are also fantastic for your health, and have benefits that can help you live longer.
But most people know that...
So I wanted to share some lesser-known teas.
Do you have a favorite tea you'd add to this list?
