Title: Is white tea beneficial for our health?
Post by: Flintstone on 06/10/2020 10:52:12
Hi!
I was wondering: does white tea also have health benefits as supposedly green tea has? All three kinds: black, green and white are called tea (I would love for someone to explain that issue as well). It is also said that black tea can be beneficial for health but it shouldn't be drank in excess because it does include some caffeine. However, green tea seems to be the game with antioxidants. Although, I have read somewhere (but nothing scientific) that green tea causes teeth to get weaker, is that true?
My main question though is: does white tea have any beneficial factors towards health?

Tea contains significant amounts of fluoride which has a beneficial effect on teeth in small doses but an adverse effect in large doses.

I drink white tea because it regulates cholesterol. Apart from that, I have seen many benefits.

it regulates cholesterol.
How did you form that conclusion?
