What is Purple Tea?
Purple tea, like all other tea originates from the Camellia Sinensis plant. The same plant that we get our familiar black and green tea from. The purple appearance of the tea is caused by a unique natural occurring mutation which produces anthocyanin, the same powerful anti-oxidant found in blueberries. In fact, it contains 1.5 percent compared to .1 percent for blueberries.
Health Benefits of Purple Tea
- Anthocyanin has many medicinal properties and is particularly known to be beneficial against cardiovascular diseases.
- These anti-oxidants are known to provide anti-cancer benefits, improve vision, and aid in cholesterol and blood sugar metabolism.
- At the same time, caffeine content is lower than that of black & green tea.
- Purple tea also contains higher amounts of another anti-oxidant – polyphenols. More than black or most green teas (16.5 percent versus 10.1 percent for black and 9.1 for green).
- Like green tea, purple tea also has high levels of another form of anti-oxidant known as catechins, especially EGCG which is the powerful anti-oxidant found in green tea.
- These neuro-protective antioxidants permeate the blood brain barrier significantly boosting brain antioxidant capacity.
Purple tea has a pleasant, sweet and woodsy flavor.
