Health Benefits
GREEN TEA (Camellia sinensis): Green tea is high in free radical fighting antioxidants which assists the body by protecting cells from damage. It improves heart health by lowering cholesterol and it can also assist in weight management by burning fat. Green tea can improve brain function due to its moderate caffeine content, however due to the presence of L-theanine you can get a much calmer and more productive caffeine boost than with coffee.
