What antioxidants are in Pu erh tea?
Tea has been lauded for its health benefits for centuries. In particular, Pu erh tea is known for its unique fermentation process and resulting health properties. But exactly what antioxidants are in this special tea?
The power of antioxidants
Antioxidants are substances that help protect the body from the harmful effects of free radicals. They are essential to our health and are found in many of the foods we eat, including tea.
Antioxidants in Pu erh tea
In Pu erh tea, we find a range of antioxidants, including catechins and theaflavins. These substances have similar benefits to the EGCG found in green tea, but the exact content and ratio can vary depending on the fermentation time and processing method of the Pu erh tea.
Conclusion
Pu erh tea is a rich source of antioxidants that can contribute to our overall health. While it does not have the same EGCG level as green tea, it has its own unique set of health properties thanks to its unique fermentation process.
