[09:43.83]Some Facts About Tea
[09:48.25]Tea is the most popular drink in the world besides plain water.
[09:55.95]There are thousands of different types of tea available.
[10:01.70]All tea comes from the Camellia Sinensis bush--also known as the Tea Plant.
[10:11.81]The leaves and buds of this plant are picked several times a year, usually by hand.
[10:20.64]After picking,the tea is processed into black tea,
[10:27.64]oolong tea,green tea or white tea.
[10:33.34]Black tea was invented in China in the Ming Dynasty
[10:40.05]as a way to keep tea fresh when it was being transported long distances.
[10:48.36]As tea has to travel a long distance to reach places such as Britain,
[10:56.45]Canada and Australia it is not surprising that westerners drink mostly black tea.
[11:07.27]However,the majority of the world drinks green tea.
[11:13.70]Herbal tea is prepared in the same way as regular tea but is not really tea.
[11:23.73]This is because it contains herbs,
[11:23.78]fruits,spices,etc but no leaves from the Tea Plant.
[11:32.79]To truly be tea,the leaves must come from this plant.
[11:40.18]All tea naturally contains caffeine,which comes from the tea leaves.
[11:47.79]Antioxidants are the properties found in some foods
[11:54.89]that reduce your risk of getting cancer and heart disease.
[12:01.84]All regular tea has a lot of antioxidants.
[12:08.45]Decaffeinated tea is regular tea(usually green or black)
[12:16.44]that has been processed to remove the caffeine.
[12:22.06]In recent years,organic tea has become popular,too.
[12:28.59]This is tea that comes from plants
[12:33.21]that have been grown without the use of any chemicals.
[12:39.72]People believe that it tastes better and is healthier
[12:46.14]but sometimes it costs more than non-organic tea.
[12:52.86]This is because the size of the crops is often smaller.
