Sabia que o Chá é a bebida mais consumida no mundo a seguir à água?

O CHÁ dispõe de uma vasta variedade de benefícios para a saúde, de sabores deliciosos e aromas envolventes que atendem às necessidades e gostos dos indivíduos mais exigentes  em matéria de saúde e dos entendidos em bebidas e comida; o que faz dele a infusão/bebida mais popular do universo.

Todos os chás dão uma sensação de relaxamento associado a um alto nível de alerta mental sem produzir efeitos laterais adversos. Deve-se beber diferentes variedades de CHÁ para obter inúmeros benefícios para a saúde a vários níveis.

A origem do chá

É muito difícil imaginar o mundo sem CHÁ,  a qual é a bebida mais consumida depois da água natural. Basicamente, o CHÁ é a fermentação obtida das folhas frescas ou secas, gomos, da planta Camellia Sinensis. Muitos ficarão chocados ao saber que os chamados “chás de ervas” e ” infusões de chás” não são realmente chás derivados da planta Camellia Sinensis;  mas simplesmente uma parte de qualquer outra erva ou planta incluindo as suas folhas frescas ou secas, gavinhas, gomos, nódulos, flores, sementes, hastes, raízes, etc. Todos eles contribuem para a maravilhosa variedade de CHÁ, o qual é bom não só como calmante, revigorante e refrescante, mas também pelos  inumeráveis e espantosos  benefícios para a saúde.

O CHÁ na sua forma crua é geralmente disponibilizado como um produto de agricultura embalado ou então em folhas soltas pré-processadas. O produto goza actualmente de tal aceitação a nível mundial que a planta é referida como CHÁ , sendo o seu nome original confinado apenas para propósito cientifico ou botânico.

A Imporchá apresenta os novos chás em Folhas Solas... O mesmo sabor de sempre....

Como fazer chá por infusão:

1 - Coloque a parte da planta desejada (folhas, flores) num recipiente de preferência de vidro ou porcelana.
2- Ferver a quantidade de água recomendada. Não esquecer que uma parte evapora. Deitar a água sobre a planta com cuidado, deixar de repouso 10 minutos, sempre bem tapado. Filtrar e tomar ao longo do dia.
3- Os elementos alteram-se 10horas após a infusão. Portanto, nunca deixe de um dia para o outro.

Para melhor apreciar o esplendor deste chás aconselhamos um bule de vidro. Conheça os nossos em: www.imporcha.com

Tea has been used as medicine for centuries. Now modern science is discovering what people in China and throughout the world have long known: tea is good for you. While green and black tea are very healthy, white tea is the least processed tea and has the highest antioxidant levels. It may be the supreme Drink of Health.

Antioxidants are nutrients that protect the body from damage by free radicals. Free radicals are nasty things that go around wreaking havoc on your body, damaging DNA and accelerating aging. Antioxidants scoop them up and neutralize them. White tea is loaded with these protective nutrients.

White tea may have profound power against cancer-causing cells and against many different types of cancer, such as colon, prostate, and stomach cancers. Flavonoids, a class of antioxidants, inhibit the growth of cancer cells and prevent the development of new ones. In some cases, white tea has been found to work as well as prescription drugs, but without the side effects.

Studies show that white tea can thin the blood and improve artery function. It helps lower high blood pressure and maintain a healthy one. By promoting strong and healthy blood vessels, white tea guards against the ravages of stroke.

Catechins, another group of antioxidants, have been found to reduce cholesterol, and white tea is teeming with them. Cholesterol is a special type of fat and is necessary for health. There is good cholesterol and bad cholesterol, and white tea increases the good while decreasing the bad. This helps prevent hardening of the arteries and blockage of blood flow.

By thinning the blood, lowering blood pressure, and reducing cholesterol, white tea protects the heart and the entire circulatory system. Researchers have also discovered that people who drink 2 or more cups of tea a day are almost 50% less likely to die after suffering a heart attack. White tea is truly a remarkable heart tonic.

Studies have found that people who drank tea regularly had greater bone density and strength than non-drinkers. White tea may also have beneficial effects for sufferers of arthritis and osteoporosis.

White tea is a natural killer of bacteria and viruses. The antioxidants so abundant in white tea tone the entire immune system, providing protection against a variety of invaders and a wide range of diseases. Its helps guard against the common cold and flu, and can ease the symptoms of HIV.

White tea contains small amounts of fluoride and other nutrients which keeps the teeth strong and healthy. It also kills the bacteria which causes plaque, tooth decay, and bad breath.
Free radicals from staying out in the sun too long, stress, and a poor diet can damage the skin and cause it to prematurely age. By scavenging these free radicals, white tea protects the skin and helps to reverse some of the damage. Drinking white tea promotes healthy and radiant skin.

White tea has many other benefits to offer. It may reduce blood sugar and help prevent and alleviate the symptoms of diabetes. It reduces stress and increases energy.
White tea may or may not aid in weight-loss. Studies suggest tea may increase metabolism and encourage the body to burn more fat, but a balanced diet and regular exercise are more likely to produce results. Still, adding white tea to your weight-loss plan can’t hurt.

White tea protects against cancer, heart disease, and stroke, the leading causes of death in the industrial world, as well as numerous other conditions. It eases the symptoms of illness and promotes recovery. White tea strengthens the circulatory and immune systems as well as bones and teeth, and builds

O CHÁ É UMA CHÁVENA DE VIDA

Tea or Water? Both!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tea or Water? Both!

Is tea healthier for you than water? Drinking three or more cups of tea a day is as good for you as drinking plenty of water and may even have extra health benefits, say researchers. The work in the European Journal of Clinical Nutrition dispels the common belief that tea dehydrates.

Tea not only rehydrates as well as water does, but it can also protect against heart disease and some cancers, UK nutritionists found.

Experts believe flavonoids are the key ingredient in tea that promotes health. These polyphenol antioxidants are found in many foods and plants, including tea leaves, and have been shown to help prevent cell damage. They found clear evidence that drinking three to four cups of tea a day can cut the chances of having a heart attack. Some studies suggested tea consumption protected against cancer, although this effect was less clear-cut. Other health benefits seen included protection against tooth plaque and potentially tooth decay, plus bone strengthening.

"Drinking tea is actually better for you than drinking water.

Water is essentially replacing fluid. Tea replaces fluids and contains antioxidants so it's got two things going for it." Tea is rehydrating. "Studies on caffeine have found very high doses dehydrate and everyone assumes that caffeine-containing beverages dehydrate. But even if you had a really, really strong cup of tea or coffee, which is quite hard to make, you would still have a net gain of fluid.

Besides the fact that tea is as much a rehydrating agent as water, it is an extremely potent antioxidant and anticancer agent. This is mostly due to the flavonoids and polyphenol antioxidants that are natural ingredients in the beverage.

"A cup of tea contains fluoride, which is good for the teeth,"

There was no evidence that tea consumption was harmful to health. However, research suggests that tea can impair the body's ability to absorb iron from food; meaning people at risk of anemia should avoid drinking tea around mealtimes.

"Studies in the laboratory have shown potential health benefits. "The evidence in humans is not as strong and more studies need to be done. But there are definite potential health benefits from the polyphenols in terms of reducing the risk of diseases such as heart disease and cancers. "In terms of fluid intake, we recommend 1.5-2 liters per day and that can include tea.

Tea is not dehydrating. It is a healthy drink."

Tea leaves are a very rich source of flavonoids. Flavonoids are a class of naturally occurring plant compounds that function as antioxidants. They are plant pigments and even if they are not labeled as essential nutrients, they enhance the processing of vitamin C, which is itself a powerful antioxidant. Flavonoids are also needed to maintain capillary walls and protect against infections.

Deficiency of flavonoids may lead to easily bruising.
Flavonoids are extremely potent anti-oxidants. Antioxidant properties of the natural pigments fight against molecular oxidation by the free radicals; this is why they are called anti-oxidants. In our body, an infinite number of chemical reactions take place every day. A part of the chemical changes in the cells that use oxygen give birth to free radicals, which are harmful for the cells and the organism.

An excessive amount of free radicals interact with the DNA or parts of the other cells in the body and may damage them. But the antioxidants counteract and neutralize these organic "enemies." For the study, researchers have analyzed a large number of scientific works on water and tea's properties and effects upon our health. They found that tea rehydrates our body as well as water, but it also contains the "magic" ingredients, which keeps us from a wide range of various health disorders.

Imporcha-oriental Sensations...Green Tea

Green Tea

Green Tea is also made of the young tender tea leaves; and only differs from black tea in the way it is processed. It is something that is basically coming from the ancient Chinese civilizations; now modernized to suit present day requirements. Its rich goodness can be gauged from an old Chinese proverb which says,

"Better to be deprived of food for three days, than tea for one."

Green tea is very commonly used for conditions such as obesity, weight loss and as dietary supplements. Unlike most of the other medicinal prescriptions that contain inorganic compounds and chemicals that have harmful after effects and cause damage to your internal organs, green tea is very safe to take and has an awesome line of health benefits; starting from the ancient

Chinese who used green tea mainly

for depression and headaches, now green tea is known to be good for burning fat, weight loss and metabolism; prevention or the reduction of risks of some specific cancers, heart diseases, thrombosis; treatment of Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases, multiple sclerosis, impaired immune functions, rheumatoid arthritis, cardio vascular diseases and tooth decay and dental plaque; reduction of blood cholesterol level and improvement of the ratio of good to bad cholesterol etc.

Zesta Black Tea

Zesta - a arte do chá Ceilão

Chá Preto (BLACK TEA)

O Chá é das mais ricas fontes de antioxidantes naturais. Estes têm sido relacionados com a prevenção do cancro, diminuição do risco de acidentes vasculares cerebrais e redução do colesterol. Tem ainda vestígios de diversos nutrientes, como o aminoácido L-Teanina: os minerais cálcio, magnésio, manganês e potássio e da vitamina
C e K.

O Chá é livre de açúcar, calorias e gorduras. O teor de cafeína é de aproximadamente 2%, o que é muito menor que a quantidade encontrada no café.

As plantações de Watawala possuem alguns dos melhores chás do Sri Lanka. A sua própria marca, ZESTA, garante que obtenha a mais fresca chávena de chá, directamente das suas plantações.

Chá Aromatizado (FLAVOURED TEA)
