Drinking Tea Can Have Several Health Benefits

Although experts are divided on exactly how healthy natural teas are, there is no doubt that drinking tea has some health benefits.

For example, green tea shares all the health benefits that are thought to come from black tea, except in a more effective form, as the tea is fresher. Tea can help reduce your chances of getting heart disease by up to half, as well as fight dental plaque and cavities (although it will also stain your teeth if you don't make sure to drink plenty of water and brush regularly, so watch out!).

Drinking tea can help you to burn calories because your body has to cool down the hot drink once you drink it, that in itself takes energy. Tea often burns more calories than it contains which means  that natural teas can potentially help you to lose weight if you drink enough of it.

Not only can drinking natural flavored teas help you with weight management, here are a few other added health benefits to keep in mind:

• Chamomile tea is known to help calm the nerves
• Sweet Hibiscus tea helps aid heart health
• Sweet 10 Blossoms tea helps with your bodies digestion
• Sweet Cinnamon Tea can help give your body a boost of energy
• Sweet Green Tea with Mango is filled with antioxidants {antioxidants help prevent certain health issues and diseases}
• Black Tea is known to help reduce some symptoms of heart disease and may even help to keep blood cholesterol levels from rising

After listing these few health benefits from adding tea to your diet, you may be wondering where you can find some of these natural teas. Allow me to assist you with that.

Recently, I had the chance to try out a few specialty teas from a new Hispanic tea company known as Te Tiempo.

Te Tiempo specializes in producing naturally sweet herb infused teas. These delicious specialty teas are not only easy to prepare, the tea is infused with such a heightened level of sweet herb flavor, that there is no need to add any sugar to your cup of tea. This is especially important to those of us who are currently working on maintaining their weight.

Te Tiempo teas contain zero calories without compromising the taste or flavor.

To give you an idea of how you can prepare these teas, take a look at this recipe we shared on our food website - Sweet Hibiscus Lime Sweet Tea.
