Tonic in a teapot.(Tea)(includes related information on teapots, on tea preparation, and on green tea testing )
Americans are beginning to realize what Eastern cultures have known for thousands of years: Tea is good for what ails you. But the ancients could not have imagined all the possible benefits from the leaves of Camellia sinensis--a white-flowered evergreen from which black, green, and oolong teas are derived.
A growing body of evidence suggests that fresh-brewed teas can do far more than soothe a sore throat or provide "vigor of body, contentment of mind, and determination of purpose," as Chinese Emperor Shen Nung reputedly said in 2737 B.C. Many studies suggest that tea may help fight heart disease and certain cancers as well as increase bone density.
