Green Tea and Honey Benefits - Healthy and Sweet

The importance of green tea for health should not be underestimated. Drinking this delicious fruity beverage can bring you all kinds of health benefits due to the unique nature of green tea.

Simply making a cup of green tea a day will help increase your well-being and give you a whole range of health benefits. One of the top Green Teas at the moment is the Matcha Green Tea Powder

This tea is from Japan and requires some preparation to make, but it is organic and full of taste! 

What makes Green Tea so Healthy?
  • It is full of anti-oxidants that help soak up free-radicals (cancer causing) in the body.
  • Can improve brain functioning – making you a little sharper than usual.
  • Increases fat burning in the body and can therefore help you lose weight.
  • Increased brain activity may help you fight conditions such as dementia and Parkinson’s disease.
  • Green Tea lowers your risk of Diabetes type II
  • Considering all of these health benefits of green tea it can also hep you live longer – not bad for a natural beverage!

Also try and source Green Tea that is both organic and uses bleach free bags wherever possible. After all you don’t want to introduce harmful chemicals to your body. A top choice for the freshest taste has to be the Matcha Green Tea Powder. This top grade Green Tea is both organic and can also be used in creating smoothies or for other baking recipes. I prefer it to tea bag green tea as the flavor is sublime.

Adding Honey to your Green Tea
To make green tea even taste better you can add a drop of Raw Honey such as Manuka to boost the overall health benefits. Honey is one of nature’s finest foods, full of minerals and essential chemicals that are also considered a booster of the immune system. I would suggest a Manuka Health MGO 400 20+ Honey as a sweetener for Green Tea as it has a very high UMF count, which makes it a better choice for the health conscious. Simply add a spoonful to your Green Tea and you'll be pumping your body full of health!
