Why red tea is better than green tea

​

Green tea has long been acknowledged for its health and wellness benefits, including weight

loss assistance. The evidence is irrefutable. But are we overlooking something better?

It is true that green tea contains powerful antioxidants. These components contribute to

minimizing health risks such as cancer and cardiovascular disease.

As a Weight Loss Expert, it has been my primary goal to share practical tips and tricks for

those pursuing optimal health. In upholding my obligation to transparency, I am about to

reveal how green tea, although beneficial, is gradually losing value in the light of its delicious

rival – rooibos.

Rooibos, also known as red tea, is equally high in antioxidants, however sourced from

different substances to that of green tea. The antioxidants contained in rooibos – aspalathin

and nothofagin – are comparatively rare, and help to regulate blood sugar, reduce excessive

fat production, stress, and inhibit metabolic disorders.

After the results of recent studies, alongside my own findings related to the major players

in sustainable weight loss, I consider red tea an essential. In addition to preventing heart

disease, diabetes, Alzheimer’s and more, it is an accessible and effective answer to weight

gain.

This year I began the production of my Red Tea Detox. A primary goal was to harness the

incredible benefits of rooibos whilst combining the ingredient with a number of other, equally

valuable elements.

Rooibos means red bush. The plant is readily available, with leaves that turn red upon fermentation. With so much potential to assist with our health and wellness journeys, I

considered it wrong to ignore the strength of the plant.

Unlike green tea, red tea does not contain caffeine, and therefore drinking the blend at night

won’t leave you restless.

Another factor of its ultimate superiority is simply – taste. The bitterness of green tea is often

attributed to its high tannin content, which is less prevalent in red tea.

Many health products do not aim to bridge the gap between adults and young children,

but the pursuit of health is of equal importance for both demographics. Which is why I’ve

designed a recipe that caters to all ages and tastes, with the inclusion of a sweetened

version of the recipe.

This particular Red Tea Detox program is fresh and matchless, already actively transforming

lives since its launch.
