SUPERFOODS RX

SUPERFOODS RX By Steven G. Pratt, M.D. and Kathy Matthews

All teas come from the same plant, "Camellia sinensis". The differences stem from how they are processed. How the leaves are processed will determine their final classification as black, green, and oolong teas. Unprocessed leaves are called white tea.

BLACK TEA undergoes a full fermentation process composed of four basic steps - withering, rolling, fermenting, and firing (or drying). We invite you to view photos and descriptions of individual black teas.

GREEN TEA is often referred to as "unfermented" tea. The freshly picked leaves are allowed to dry, then are heat-treated to stop any fermentation (also referred to as oxidation). We invite you to view photos and descriptions of individual green teas.

OOLONG TEA is generally referred to as "semi-fermented" tea. For oolongs, the leaves are wilted in direct sunlight, then shaken in bamboo baskets to lightly bruise the edges. Next, the leaves are spread out to dry until the surface of the leaf turns slightly yellow. Oolongs are always whole leaf teas, never broken by rolling. We invite you to view photos and descriptions of individual oolong teas.

WHITE TEA is the least processed tea. The new tea buds are plucked before they open and simply allowed to dry. The curled-up buds have a silvery appearance and produce a pale and very delicate cup of tea. We invite you to view photos and descriptions of individual white teas.

HERBAL TEA teas are believed to be an effective remedy for a range of ailments. For example UK researchers believe drinking chamomile tea can fight a cold and banish menstrual cramps. We invite you to view photos and descriptions of individual herbal T teas.

ROOIBOS TEA Pronounced Roy-boss or Roy-bus, colloquially known as Red Tea, is an herbal plant that grows in South Africa. Rooibos is a flavorful, caffeine-free alternative to tea for those seeking to eliminate caffeine intake. We invite you to view photos and descriptions of individual rooibos teas
