White tea contains the same types of antioxidants as green tea, but in greater quantity (white tea is the least processed tea and has the highest antioxidant level). These antioxidants are found to have many health promoting properties including boosting cardiovascular health, helping to lower cholesterol, reducing the risk of cancer and enhancing weight loss. White tea has been found to work as well as prescription drugs, but without the side effects. Drinking a cup of White tea once or twice daily can clear up your skin.
White tea is made from buds and young leaves, which are steamed or fired to inactivate polyphenol oxidase, and then dried. Its leaves and buds are picked just before they are fully open, when they’re covered in fine white hairs. This is where white tea gets its name. Green tea and black tea are also made from the Camellia sinensis plant. However, different processing methods give them their unique flavors and aromas. White tea is the least processed of the three teas. Because of this, it retains a high amount of antioxidants.
