Chinese tea
Chinese tea can be divided into six categories based on the production process and degree of fermentation, namely green tea, white tea, yellow tea, green tea (oolong tea), black tea and dark tea. Each type of tea has its own unique qualities and flavors
fermentation
Unfermented tea: retains more of the natural substances in tea and has anti-inflammatory, sterilizing, and anti-aging effects. However, unfermented tea may be irritating to the gastrointestinal tract.
Fermented tea: The tea is milder and not very irritating to the stomach. It has the effect of nourishing the stomach and regulating the three highs; however, there is a corresponding loss of antioxidant substances.
Main functions and introduction of tea
Tea polyphenols
Tea polyphenols, also known as tannins or tannic acid, are the general name for polyphenolic chemicals in tea, including catechins, anthocyanins, flavonoids and flavonols, of which catechins account for the majority. Tea polyphenols are one of the main components of tea’s health benefits and are also the main substances that contribute to the color, aroma and taste of tea.
Take the right amount Tea polyphenols have a strong ability to remove harmful free radicals, and moderate intake can play a good anti-disease effect. At the same time, tea polyphenols can also prevent and treat cardiovascular diseases, improve the body's comprehensive immunity, prevent aging, aid digestion, prevent tooth decay and clean mouth, etc. Excessive intake Studies have shown that excessive intake of tea polyphenols at one time may damage the liver, so it is not recommended to drink too much tea every time.
Caffeine
As early as the Stone Age, humans have begun to use caffeine. In 3000 BC, Shennong discovered that tea leaves dropped into water have a refreshing effect. Caffeine is an alkaloid extracted from tea leaves and coffee cherries. It is the most commonly used psychotropic drug in the world. As a central nervous system stimulant, it can help people temporarily get rid of drowsiness and restore energy.
Take the right amount Caffeine has a very good refreshing effect. It also has the effects of losing weight, promoting digestion, diuresis and pain relief, enhancing physical agility, and reducing the risk of gallstones. Excessive intake Excessive caffeine intake may cause anxiety, sleep disorders, and over-excitement, so it is best not to drink too much tea before going to bed to avoid affecting sleep.
Catechin
Catechins, also called tea tannins, are derivatives of flavanols, accounting for 75% to 80% of tea polyphenols. They are an important functional component of tea and one of the sources of tea’s bitter taste. Catechin can scavenge free radicals produced by the human body and play a role in slowing down aging. It also has the functions of preventing tooth decay and deodorizing.
Take the right amount Appropriate amounts of catechins taken in can enter the body through blood circulation, strengthen metabolism, enhance fat oxidation and energy consumption, thereby achieving the effect of inhibiting obesity, especially the inhibitory effect on visceral fat. Excessive intake Unidentified catechin products on the market may contain excessive amounts of caffeine and pesticide residues during the manufacturing process. If you experience palpitations, insomnia, excitement, etc. after taking catechins, it means there is excessive caffeine in the concentrated ingredients, and long-term use will affect your health.
Theanine
Theanine is a unique free amino acid in tea that has a sweet taste. Theanine accounts for 1% to 2% of the weight of dry tea, and its content varies depending on the variety and part of the tea. Theanine has the effects of calming nerves, lowering blood pressure, and enhancing the efficacy of anti-cancer drugs.
Take the right amount Ingesting an appropriate amount of theanine can protect nerve cells and improve learning ability and memory. For women, it can also improve menstrual syndrome. Excessive intake Chemically synthesized theanine is all DL-type racemate, and only the separated L-type theanine can be absorbed and utilized by the human body. Excessive intake of D-type theanine will cause poisoning.

The main functions of tea
1 Why can drinking tea help you lose weight? Drinking tea can make your body light, which is the result of the joint action of phenolic derivatives, aromatic substances, amino acids, and vitamins in tea, especially tea polyphenols and vitamin C. Tea polyphenols can dissolve fat, while vitamin C can promote the excretion of cholesterol from the body. The comprehensive and coordinated effect of these substances can promote human body fat oxidation, help digestion, and achieve the effect of lowering fat and losing weight.
2 Why can drinking tea fight cancer? The tea polyphenols in tea can effectively block the synthesis of carcinogens such as nitrite locks in the body, and have the effect of improving the body's immunity and directly killing cancer cells. In addition, tea polyphenols (mainly catechin compounds) are also helpful in the prevention and auxiliary treatment of various cancers such as gastric cancer and intestinal pain.
3 Why can drinking tea resist aging? The anti-aging effect of tea on the human body is mainly reflected in the coordination of some effective chemical components and multiple vitamins, such as tea polyphenols, caffeine, vitamin C, aromatics, lipopolysaccharides, etc., which can enhance human heart muscle activity and blood vessel elasticity, Inhibit arteriosclerosis, reduce the incidence of hypertension and coronary heart disease, enhance immunity, thereby anti-aging and making people live longer.
4Why can drinking tea be antibacterial and detoxifying? The tea polyphenols in tea have a strong astringent effect, have obvious inhibitory and killing effects on pathogenic bacteria and viruses, and have obvious effects on reducing inflammation and diarrhea. Many medical units in China use tea preparations to treat acute and chronic dysentery, amoebic dysentery, influenza, etc., with a cure rate of about 90%.
5 Why can drinking tea protect against radiation? Tea polyphenols and their oxidation products in tea can absorb the poison of radioactive substances (strontium 90 and cobalt 60). Tests have shown that using tea extract to treat mild radiation sickness caused by radiation therapy in cancer patients is more than 90% effective, and it is also very effective in treating leukopenia caused by radiation.
6 Why can drinking tea protect your teeth and improve your eyesight? Tea is an alkaline drink, which can effectively inhibit the reduction of calcium in the human body and is useful for preventing dental caries, protecting teeth, and strengthening teeth. In addition, vitamin C and other ingredients in tea can reduce eye lens opacity. Therefore, regular tea drinking has a positive effect on reducing eye diseases, protecting eyes and improving eyesight.
7Why does drinking tea refresh your mind? Medical experiments show that the caffeine in tea can stimulate the cerebral cortex to refresh the mind, concentrate thinking, and enhance memory. In addition, drinking tea can also accelerate the excretion of lactic acid in the body, thereby eliminating fatigue.
8. Why can drinking tea promote body fluids and relieve heat? People often resort to drinking tea to quench thirst and relieve heat. This is because the polyphenols, sugars, amino acids, pectin and other substances in tea produce chemical reactions in the mouth, which can stimulate saliva secretion and produce a cooling sensation. In addition, tea is also a good sports drink, because in addition to promoting body fluids and clearing away heat, the caffeine in it also has a refreshing effect, and can promote the body to burn fat first to supply heat energy during exercise, so that people can have more endurance during exercise. .
09 Why can drinking tea be a diuretic? The combined effect of caffeine and aromatics in tea can increase the blood flow of the kidneys, improve the filtration rate of the glomerulus, expand the renal capillaries, and inhibit the reabsorption of water by the renal tubules, leading to an increase in urine output. Therefore, drinking more tea will help eliminate lactic acid, uric acid, excess salt, harmful substances, etc. from the body.
10. Why does drinking tea improve your beauty and skin care? Tea polyphenols in tea are water-soluble substances. Washing your face with tea can remove facial greasiness, shrink pores, and has the effects of disinfection, sterilization, anti-skin aging, and reduction of skin damage caused by ultraviolet radiation in the sun.
11 Why does drinking tea help digestion? The caffeine, vitamins, amino acids, phospholipids, etc. in tea can regulate fat metabolism. In addition, the stimulating effect of caffeine can also increase the secretion of gastric juice, thereby increasing appetite and helping digestion. Among the six major tea categories, dark tea has the most significant digestive function. Dark tea has strong functions such as relieving greasiness and digesting food, so carnivorous ethnic groups (such as ethnic minorities in northwest my country) like this tea very much.
12 Why does drinking tea nourish the stomach? Tea has the effect of nourishing the stomach, mainly black tea. The caffeine in tea leaves has a strong irritation to the stomach on an empty stomach. However, after black tea is fermented, the tea polyphenols undergo enzymatic oxidation, reducing the content and irritating the stomach. In addition, the oxidation products of tea polyphenols can also promote human digestion, so black tea will not hurt the stomach, but can nourish the stomach. Black tea also has the effects of warming the stomach, protecting the gastric mucosa, and treating ulcers.
13Why can drinking tea inhibit cardiovascular disease? The human body has high levels of cholesterol, triglycerides, etc., fat deposition on the inner walls of blood vessels, and proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells, which can cause cardiovascular diseases such as atherosclerotic plaques. Tea has good effects on degrading fat, anticoagulation, promoting fibrinolysis, and has obvious effects on inhibiting platelet aggregation. In addition, drinking tea can also relax the blood vessel walls and increase the effective diameter of blood vessels, thereby inhibiting the formation of atherosclerotic plaques on the inner walls of the aorta and coronary arteries.
14 Why can drinking tea lower blood sugar? The tea polysaccharide complex in tea is the main component of lowering blood sugar. Dark tea has the highest polysaccharide content and is more active than other teas. Therefore, dark tea has a better blood sugar-lowering effect than other teas.
15 Why can drinking tea improve one’s health? Tea is a traditional treasure of the Chinese nation. In the thousands of years of tea drinking history in China, a profound etiquette culture has been accumulated. Drinking tea can cultivate one's moral character and cultivate one's sentiments. It is a typical and distinctive art of life in the lives of Chinese people.
16 Why can drinking tea prevent constipation? Constipation is caused by the relaxation of the intestines, which weakens the peristaltic force of intestinal contraction. The astringent effect of tea polyphenols in tea enhances the peristaltic force of the intestines, so tea has the effect of treating constipation. In addition, the trace amounts of tea saponin in tea can also promote small intestinal peristalsis and have a certain therapeutic effect on constipation.
17 Why can drinking tea help you sober up? The metabolism of alcohol mainly relies on the action of alcohol hydrolase in the human liver, which hydrolyzes alcohol into water and carbon dioxide, requiring vitamin C as a catalyst. If there is insufficient vitamin C in the body, the detoxification effect of the liver will be weakened, and alcohol poisoning may occur. Drinking a small amount of tea after drinking can supplement vitamin C on the one hand. On the other hand, the caffeine in tea has a diuretic effect and can quickly excrete alcohol from the body. But be careful not to drink too much tea after drinking.
18 Why can drinking tea prevent scurvy? Vitamin C deficiency will destroy the permeability of blood vessel walls, causing petechial bleeding, dental caries bleeding, and serosal cavity bleeding in muscles and joint capsules. There are a variety of flavonoids in tea soup, which have an important synergistic effect with vitamin C in the treatment of scurvy. They can help the body strengthen the absorption of vitamin C and enhance the toughness of capillaries.
