White is the color that covers the nature of in winter to again make it thoughtful, fresh and rejuvenated, colored and cheerful. And white is also a fragrant cocoon of color that appears in early spring on the heights of a mountain of Chinese province, a plant known as Tea Tree where people get the essential ingredient in developing an exquisite infusion of straw color (or soft green) called white tea, a drink that have fine silvery hairs of the cocoon (white), appearance seems to give an idea of the magic and delicious name.

White tea, consumed by ancient emperors and associates, said it owned "magic" property because it promoted immortality, rejuvenated and healed, a kind of elixir (considered wonderful remedy) little people and rarely had access, only those considered for the nobility, and in the common people if someone dared to consume it, was sentenced to death.

It is known that one of the major concerns of the ancient magicians (alchemists) was to find the elixir of longevity, a substance that in addition to giving the virtues of youth, could take to alleviate all kinds of diseases. Some doctors and philosophers spent their time finding the elixir, made numerous observations and combinations for their exercise, as in all times practitioners had charlatans offering products of great virtues and assumed that just cheated. These days it is not surprising to find drinks that before were expensive and secret, we can now find drinks like white tea, all you need to get the "white magic" is having the intention of loving you a little more each time, and get inclined to choose those foods and beverages that encourage wellness in every way.

This drink that magically distributes its privileges in the body no longer keeps the secret of its generous properties, which are due to the plant where this gets coordinated with the onset of spring, when everything germinates and the air is fresh and clean and the sky cleared, and then shoots are harvested before they are opened, while still retaining its white villi, it is in this time of "white germinated" which concentrates all power and nutrients from their properties…

This is surely the most noble heritage of the plant, which, after being dried to remove any moisture and to concentrate only its essence, is immersed in hot water to dissolve the powerful antioxidant-rich qualities, same which when ingested help raise defenses and to cooperate in the fight against free radicals, slowing the whole process of deterioration and aging in the body.

This ancient drink is at present known for a long list of properties, among them because it is:

  • Ideal to combat physical and mental fatigue
  • An excellent support for diets, as it has no calories, is mildly diuretic and promotes elimination of fats
  • A good ally in cardiovascular disease (low levels of cholesterol and triglycerides).
  • Preventive for caries by fluorine content
  • Favors concentration ability and memory and makes a new flower and vibrant energy and desire.
  • High levels of polyphenols, chemicals that act as natural antioxidants, antioxidants that can be found also in food such as fruit, vegetables, sprouts and nuts among others. In white tea polyphenols are the most abundant catechins, which are anticancer and antibiotic, as well as those responsible for combating free radicals that are responsible for the aging of cells.

One exquisite drink that delights the palate but also the mind, activates blood circulation, oxygenates the skin and encourages the spirit.
