What is Green Tea for?
Green tea come from the plant, Camellia sinensis, an evergreen shrub that grows in mountainous areas in China, India, and other countries. To make green tea, the leaves are quickly steamed or heated to stop oxidation, the chemical process that causes browning and the degradation of some of the flavonoids. Green tea leaves are loaded with antioxidants that have many health benefits.
