Top Reasons to Drink Pu-Erh Tea
2
What is Pu-Erh tea?
  • Pu-Erh tea is produced in Chinas Yunnan province
    and comes from the same plant family (Camellia
    sinensis) as oolong, green, and black tea.
  • Pu-Erh is fermented similarly to oolong tea but
    goes through an additional process called
    post-fermentation. Afterwards, the leaves are
    sundried and aged in a high-humidity environment.

3
Benefits of Pu-Erh Tea
  • Considered a delicacy in China, Pu-Erh tea
    contains numerous health benefits, including
    cardiovascular improvement, antioxidants, and
    weight loss.
  • Pu-Erhs level of fluorine is way below the
    maximum RDA and contains much less caffeine than
    black teaapproximately half the amount.

4
Cardiovascular Health
  • Research on rats has shown drinking Pu-Erh tea
    raises protective High Density Lipoprotein (HDL)
    while simultaneously reduces Low Density
    Lipoprotein (LDL) or bad cholesterol.
  • By lowering lipids, or fats, in the blood,
    studies suggest it can lower cardiovascular
    conditions such as stroke.

5
Cancer Fighting Antioxidants
  • Deriving from the Camellia sinensis family,
    Pu-Erh contains catechins, an antioxidant that
    combats cancer.
  • Green tea is the highest in catechins, but Pu-Erh
    is considered green if it is not fermented.
    Pu-Erh tea still contains traces of catechins.
  • Thanks to this antioxidant, Pu-Erh has been found
    to hinder tumor growth and in turn fights against
    carcinogens.

6
Weight Loss
  • The combination of catechins, caffeine, and
    theanine help in regulating weight loss.
  • In addition, Pu-Erh tea has the ability to stop
    fatty acid synthase (FAS), which is an enzyme
    connected to obesity and cancer.
  • By helping to reduce obesity, Pu-Erh also reduces
    blood sugar levels and blood lipid levels.

7
Mental Health
  • Pu-Erh is believed to aid in improving mental
    functions and capacities, such as sharp thinking
    and mental awareness.
  • The micro-organisms and phyto-chemicals (GABA and
    theanine) reduce stress levels.
  • They also increase the bodys natural melatonin
    production that improves a persons sleep.

8
Fights Toxicity
  • Everything we eat contains acids and other free
    radicals that, over time, can build up in our
    bodies.
  • Micro-organisms and sugars produced by Pu-Erh tea
    attack the toxins in the blood and remove them.

9
Anti-Inflammatory Properties
  • Pu-Erh also contains a number of
    anti-inflammatory properties, making it ideal to
    reduce the pain in those suffering from
    arthritis.
  • It also has been linked to reduce the likelihood
    of developing arteriosclerosis.
  • The tea contains theophylline, which is an active
    ingredient in most asthma medications the
    connection is that Pu-Erh may be able to assist
    in asthma control.
