Tea is the second most consumed beverage in the world after water and is famed not only for its taste but also due to its potential health benefits. Not all teas are the same. Black, White, Green, and Oolong teas all come from the Camellia sinensis plant, but the way they are processed changes not only the flavour of the tea but also the potential health benefits. While not technically tea due to not being Camellia sinensis leaves, herbal teas also have a wide variety of flavours and potential health benefits.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
