Tea for life is most beneficial among all sorts of tea. Yes, you’re right. This is Green Tea!

Skin and green tea have a strong connection. Healthy skin leaves a healthy impression on your mind. It’s time for some natural remedies.

Summer aggravates skin problems and some people with no skin issues also face these problems. It may aggravate your acne, make your skin oily, and can irritate your skin.

Acne can leave blemishes. Nobody needs them. Right? Loads of treatments work for acne but not on everyone. Some people with more sensitive skin end up with worsened skin issues. Yes, it happens.

But don’t worry.

Nature hasn’t left us on our own.

The anti-inflammatory properties of green tea can solve all the worries. It lessens acne and irritation and helps to give you glowing and clear skin. Even for sensitive skin, it works as proved scientifically.

How green tea helps us?

Research (by National Health Institute) tells us all about the science behind this effective healer.

A quick summary for you.

The weight percentage of components of green tea is,

Catechins 30%–42%

Flavanols 5% — 10%

Other Flavonoids 2% — 4%

Vitamin E and Vitamin C

Catechins further have other components and the most abundant among them is epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG).

That research article says,

“EGCG is the most abundant catechin and has been shown to have beneficial health effects on the skin.”

You can never have had enough green tea because of its abundant uses.

As I’m sure you know that it helps in your metabolism, weight loss, to control blood pressure, intestinal disorders, and as a cancer preventer.

But how it has so so many healthy effects?

In Timeless Secrets of Health and Rejuvenation, the writer Andreas Moritz calls it tea for life. While describing how it helps us, the author writes,

“Green tea works in a different way. A large amount of tannins make certain that the caffeine is taken to the brain in only small and well-dosed amounts, which actually harmonizes the energies in the body. Unlike black tea, the original, green version makes the body’s own energy use more efficient. This helps the consumer of green tea improve his vitality and stamina without having to experience the "up and down" effect so often accompanied with the consumption of black tea.”

How to use it?

There are many different ways to use the power of green tea to heal your skin.

But if we stick to Science, you can either have healthy skin effects by drinking enough green tea or applying it to the face. Both ways are helpful.

Two to three cups of green tea each day can solve many of your worries. It works best when used in natural form but the other way isn’t wrong. And that’s the best part. We can choose any way we like.

A very small addition to our daily plan can have long-lasting effects. A good flavored thing has enormous uses. Mother nature is here to help us with a too common problem. What more do you want?
