Is green tea healthier than black tea?
At Octavia Tea, we select each tea with both flavor and health benefits in mind. We encourage customers to select teas based on taste. After all, the tea that is healthiest for you is the one you will drink the most! White, Green and Red teas are reported to have the highest antioxidant levels while Greens, Oolongs and Mates may be best for weight loss. However, all of the teas in the Octavia Tea line are rich in health-promoting properties. Different types of tea contain different types of antioxidants, so, just as you wouldn’t eat only one kind of vegetable, drinking a variety of teas may provide an increased spectrum of healthy benefits. Please see the Tea and Health section of this website for more detailed information.
