Choosing teas for taste

Choosing a good tea for you may be as simple as changing seasons. Spring is considered the season for flower teas, summer for green teas and autumn is a season of changes, perfect for a Oolong tea (between black and green). Winter is the perfect place for one of them. You can also choose to drink certain teas according to the time of day. The morning can be great for green tea because it does not contain the average amount (60-70mg per cup) of caffeine. Chrysanthemum tea can be a good tea for the afternoon because it helps relieve and combat depression, stress and anxiety. In the evening it nice to relax with a tasty Medlar tea, as rich in B-1, vitamin C, calcium and iron and can also help relax the body after a long day.

There are so many types of teas too choose from, it can be difficult to decide which one is right for you. Although not based on any scientific findings, anecdotal evidence over centuries has helped some health practitioners to develop a list of teas associated with different people. At least, it is an interesting exercise, trying to match people and their unique needs for a wide range of teas in the world, and a large number of properties and effects that have been observed in use.

Remember, this is not medical advice of any kind. However, you are responsible for your own health and wellbeing, so stay educated on the subjects that impact your life and diet, and remember the importance of getting a good balance of scientific facts, anecdotal evidence and educated opinions (the last from your primary health care provider). There is a place for tea in your wellness plan, without a doubt, but that does not mean you can not find one that feels the best to you, and gives you the effects, both pleasurable and medical, that you want.
