But, the only real worry would only be if we were to consume a lot any liquid drink that had it as a constituent ingredient.Briefly looking at the differing amounts of caffeine in other popular beverages, there's about one quarter of the amount in green tea that's in an equivalent cup of coffee.One rather interesting snippet of information I came across mentioned that the strength of caffeine can differ according to how you brew it. It seems that the brewing time and how often you use the tea leaves has an impact on the caffeine levels.Another is that the caffeine in green tea acts somewhat differently in that it does not raise your heart rate or blood pr...]]></content:encoded>

But, some people are still fairly new to tea drinking, and are still learning the popular varieties and deciding which ones are they like best. One of the tea varieties that's most popular today is white tea. White tea comes from the same plant as black and green teas, the camellia sinensis. What makes white tea different is when it is harvested and how it's processed. White tea is harvested much earlier than other teas, before the leaves are fully open. At this point in the growing process, the tea buds are still covered by fine white hair, which is why it's referred to as white tea. Unlike other types of tea, both buds and leaves are used in white tea. White tea undergoes very little processing, and is not fermented. The leaves are simply steamed or occasionally fired and then dried. Sometimes, tea harvesters will even steam the leaves right in the field, and then let them dry in the sun.

However, it is the way the leaves are processed that determines the outcome of the final product.Green tea is very high in antioxidants and out of the two, it's processed the least. Unlike its darker, more full-flavored cousin, it isn't allowed to ferment or oxidize at all.This part of the process ensures the final product still retains most of its beneficial antioxidants and polyphenols.The phytochemicals present in tea leaves are highly sensitive to the oxidation process.During oxidation, the leaves are exposed to air which allows &quot;fermentation&quot; or oxidation to ta...]]></content:encoded>
