Black tea is made from the same tea leaves “Camellia sinensis” as green tea. The tea leaves are allowed to oxidize completely, fully drying and turning black in color producing a stronger, richer flavor. Recent scientific studies have concluded that drinking black tea may promote a healthy lifestyle by;

• Lowering bad cholesterol levels by improving circulation and heart systems by preventing the clogging of arteries.
• Reducing the risks of different cancers (stomach and colon )
• The Center for Human Nutrition at UCLA’S school of medicine concluded that the consumption of black tea may slow the progression of prostate cancer. Other research has shown that green tea may neutralize the occurrence of viruses which may cause pneumonia and skin infections.
