It's May! One of the most beautiful months of the year! The tulips are blooming. The robins are singing their soft, sweet song and the dogwood blossoms have formed their beautiful umbrella. It's hard to stay focused this month. All I want to do is go running through an open meadow. Ah, but this is also a very busy month ... with graduations, religious celebrations, Memorial Day, and, of course, Mother's Day. No matter how busy you are, be sure to take time to let Mom know how important she is. Make her a cuppa tea. It's the little things that matter most.
Happy sipping, Maureen |

| HEALTH BENEFITS of GREEN TEA We’ve all heard that green tea is good for you. Don’t you want to know what it actually does? Green tea contains antioxidants, called catechins, which scavenge for free radicals. Free radicals are what contribute to cancer, atherosclerosis, blood clots, and many other diseases. Worldwide studies over the years have shown that green tea does help to regulate and inhibit cancer growth, lower cholesterol, burn fat, prevent diabetes and stroke, and stave off dementia. A Japanese study found that increased green tea consumption before and after breast cancer surgery was associated with lower recurrence of the cancers. Studies in China have shown that the more green tea the participants drank, the less risk of developing stomach cancer, esophageal cancer, prostate cancer, and pancreatic cancer . An analysis of 22 studies concluded that by increasing your daily intake of green tea by two cups may reduce the risk of developing lung cancer by 18%. Green tea has been shown to fight obesity and lower LDL "bad" cholesterol -- two risk factors for heart disease and diabetes. These are just a few of the many health benefits. Of course, lifestyle, diet and exercise are critical to overall health. But the one constant is that by increasing your consumption of green tea, your health will benefit! ![]() If you've never tried green tea, we suggest starting with 2oz. of one of our most popular. Please remember: water should NOT be boiling, and do not steep for more than TWO minutes! Pinhead Gunpowder - This pearl tea is very tightly rolled. Very complex with a slightly sweet undertone. Bi Luo Chun Special Grade - Hand-processed leaves with a slightly sweet, mild flavor and a pale brew. Young Hyson - A bit more robust, the leaves produce a brew that is golden yellow in colour. Silver Thread - Very light and delicate, this spring-picked tea has an aromatic bouquet. |
