The beneficial properties of black tea with apple, almond, and cinnamon

For those wondering which tea is best for you, the answer depends on the goal you're aiming for. Black tea certainly contains as many antioxidants as other types of tea; in fact, the oxidation process creates unique polyphenols, theaflavins and thearubigins, which have excellent beneficial properties.

It contains antioxidants that prevent excessive oxidation of cells by free radicals; this helps prevent damage and maintain healthy cells over time, slowing the aging process. Black tea can be a morning ally due to its natural caffeine (theine) content, making it the closest thing to coffee. It can have an excellent effect on the body's energy levels, stimulating and toning attention and concentration.

Thanks to L-theanine, an amino acid found in tea, the stimulating benefits of black tea are less intense but longer-lasting than those of coffee, promoting physical and mental alertness throughout the day. Containing caffeine, black tea can improve digestion and act as a laxative, while polyphenols promote the growth of healthy bacteria in the gut. This blend also includes apple and cinnamon, which are known to aid digestion, promoting a balanced intestinal microbiota, transit, and food assimilation. This black tea, after meals, can relieve the feeling of a full stomach, aiding digestion and cleansing. The blend can also promote diuresis, draining excess fluids and eliminating toxins from the body, combating water retention, bloating, and heaviness.

Why is black tea said to help you lose weight? Because caffeine stimulates the metabolism, while some compounds in black tea help burn fat during physical activity. This beverage can therefore help with weight loss as part of a healthy, balanced diet and exercise. Its intense and satisfying flavor can also help manage hunger and avoid snacking.

Furthermore, in the cold season, an infusion of black tea, apple, and cinnamon promotes cleansing and respiratory health.

Where is black tea produced?

This type of tea comes from the leaves of the Camellia sinensis plant, just like other types (green tea, white tea, etc.). Camellia sinensis plantations are found in various regions of the world, from the hills of Sri Lanka and India (Assamica variety) to the mountain slopes of China (Sinensis variety), to the lands of Africa, especially Kenya.

The difference for cuThe name black tea derives not from its origin but from the processing of the leaves, which turn golden brown after oxidation. Dark tea is obtained by subjecting the tea leaves to a process in which, after harvest, they are withered, then rolled, oxidized, and finally dried. This process allows them to acquire all the characteristics of the natural chemical reaction of oxidation: in the presence of oxygen, the enzymes contained in the leaves react with polyphenols, generating compounds that define the color and flavor of black tea. Ceylon black tea, the basis of the black tea blend, apple, almond, and cinnamon, comes from the island of Ceylon, once called Ceylon but now known as Sri Lanka. Cinnamon, too, historically comes from this island, so this blend can be considered essentially close to the tradition of this land, linked to India by cultural and geographical proximity. Cinnamon stick powder has long been used to flavor tea and desserts, and cinnamon tea has long been an excellent base for additional flavorings, as in this apple and almond blend.

What are the contraindications of black tea?

Although tea consumption is considered safe for adults, some side effects are possible due to its caffeine content. Excessive caffeine intake can be harmful, causing possible side effects such as headaches, nervousness, difficulty sleeping, nausea, vomiting, tremors, stomach pain, dizziness, heart rate changes, and high blood pressure. How much black tea can you drink per day? Many side effects occur if consumed in excessive quantities, so it's best to keep intake to moderate levels (1-2 cups per day).
