We all know the multitude of skin care and health benefits associated with green tea but do you know black tea is beneficial to our skin and health as well? Black tea is made from the dried leaves of Camellia Sinensis which is a perennial green shrub. Green tea, black tea, and oolong tea are all derived from the same plant. Black tea is essentially green tea but the leaves are further dried which change the color and taste.
Black tea has caffeine which stimulates the central nervous system, relaxes the airways, stimulates the heart, and acts as a diuretic. Aside from the health benefits, black tea is also rich in antioxidants, vitamins E and C and help to fight free radicals that cause pre-mature aging. Fresh has taken these benefits and created a line of products using black tea.
