Boost your health with blue tea

GREEN tea and black tea are common, but how about trying blue tea? This variant not only has a good taste, but provides plenty of health benefits, too. Kausshal Dugarr, the founder and chief executive of Teabox.com, lists the health benefits of blue tea:

Antioxidant properties: One of the most prominent benefits of drinking blue tea is that it has a lot of antioxidants. These powerful bio-compounds help the body fight free radicals, which are toxic and cause premature ageing. It is a good idea to detox the body once in a while with an antioxidant-rich drink like blue pea tea.

Anti-diabetic properties: A cup of blue butterfly tea taken in between meals will inhibit the intake of glucose from the diet and lower blood sugar. Antioxidants in the tea also help the body lower the risk of infections, which diabetics are prone to, and it is also great for your heart health.

For hair, skin: The antioxidants in a cup of blue tea are great for hair and skin. This tea also has many vitamins and minerals, which keeps your skin and hair looking great as it prevents them from ageing prematurely.

Energises and boosts brain activity: Blue tea is proven to be nootropic. That means it refreshes the brain and boosts its activity and function. This will keep you energised and feeling great.

Tea Expert Rishav Kanoi, the founder of The Tea Trove, said blue tea treated anxiety and depression. Stress levels had increased among the youth, which was causing depression. According to studies, blue tea could relieve stress and lower the symptoms of anxiety disorder, he said. – IANS
