Japanese Green Tea

According to a booklet " The Taste of Luxury: Authentic Japanese Green Tea", Japanese Green Tea is a Healthy Beverage.

"Green tea is rich in Catechins, a type of poly phenol that has many properties beneficial to heath; Catechins can help to control high blood pressure and blood glucose levels, and have antibacterial and anticarcinogenic effects. Green tea also contains high level of vitamin C, which does not break down at high temperatures. These healthy properties are found in green tea alone, and are not present in black tea. Not only is Japanese tea rich in nutrients and free from calories, it is also a soothing, delicious, and health boosting beverage."
