Detailed description
Green tea, Camellia sinensis, is a member of the Theaceae family, recognized by its narrow, light-green leaves. Native to China, it has been consumed for over 4,000 years. It was introduced to Japan in the 9th century, where it plays a central role in culture and the famous tea ceremony. Traditionally, the leaves are brewed to create a beverage appreciated for its stimulating and health-preserving effects. Rich in antioxidants, notably catechins and polyphenols, green tea leaves support cardiovascular health and stimulate metabolism and lipid oxidation. Its catechins are particularly well studied, as is L-theanine, an amino acid that promotes relaxation. Last but not least, green tea boosts the immune system.
