What is Black Tea Good For?

1. Heart Health:

• Can improve cholesterol levels: Theaflavins, a type of antioxidant found in black tea, have been linked to lowering LDL (“bad”) cholesterol levels.
• Can reduce blood pressure: Regular black tea consumption may contribute to a modest reduction in blood pressure.
• Can lower the risk of heart disease and stroke: Studies suggest that drinking black tea may be associated with a decreased risk of cardiovascular events.

2. Antioxidant Power:

• Rich in polyphenols: Black tea is packed with antioxidants, including theaflavins and thearubigins, which help neutralize harmful free radicals in the body. This may contribute to a reduced risk of chronic diseases.

3. Improved Focus and Alertness Better Than Coffee:

• Contains caffeine: Black tea provides a moderate amount of caffeine, which can enhance alertness, focus, and cognitive function.
• L-theanine: This amino acid, also found in black tea, can promote relaxation and focus without the jitters often associated with caffeine.
• NO AFTER BURN: Unlike coffee, black tea doesn’t cause the acid buildup in your stomach or the reflux that coffee drinkers hate.
• Brain Powerup: There is a reason why black tea is often called “The Drink of The Wise”, and its because of its amazing ability to boost brain function!

4. Potential Benefits for Gut Health:

• May promote a healthy gut microbiome: Some studies suggest that black tea may positively influence the balance of bacteria in the gut.

5. Other Potential Benefits:

• May help regulate blood sugar levels: Research indicates that black tea may improve insulin sensitivity and help manage blood sugar levels, particularly after meals.
• May reduce the risk of certain cancers: While more research is needed, some studies suggest that black tea consumption may be associated with a lower risk of certain types of cancer.

 

Why We Use Glass Packaging:

The majority of tea packaging such as Tin, Metal and Paper, contains harmful toxins and carcinogens that not only risk the health of consumers, but also reduce the quality and flavor of the product. Products made from Wood, such as Paper for example, which is often used in tea bags and tea containers, are processed with and naturally contains Formaldehyde, a known cancer causing substance. Data strongly suggest a link between formaldehyde exposure from paper products and high increase risk in developing cancer. In fact, a series of recent scientific studies found large amounts of formaldehyde, as well as other toxic substances, in tea bags, containers, packaging, bag adhesives and in non-organic tea samples, far above the accepted minimum limit. Brook & Barrel Corp, cares for the health of both the environment and the health of our consumers above all else, for this reason we have done tireless research on this matter and based on these findings have now vowed to only use glass or quality (chemical free) packaging for our products.
