Sencha tea is a traditional drink in Japan. It is a small-leaved green tea with a pleasant sweetish-bitter taste. The beneficial properties of sencha are widely known.
Instructions
Step 1
Sencha, like other green tea varieties, is antiviral and anti-inflammatory. It strengthens the immune system and prevents the development of viral diseases. It is recommended to rinse the mouth and larynx with cold sencha tea in case of any inflammatory processes.
Step 2
This tea has powerful antioxidant properties. In terms of antioxidant properties, sencha is a hundred times superior to vitamin C and almost 25 times superior to vitamin E. Antioxidants can slow down the aging process and have a positive effect on the condition of hair, nails and skin.
Step 3
Sencha has a beneficial effect on the body's metabolism. It stabilizes blood sugar in diabetic patients. This tea also has beneficial properties in lowering blood pressure and blood cholesterol levels. Thus, sencha prevents the development of cardiovascular diseases. Many doctors and nutritionists believe that this tea also reduces the risk of developing cancer.
Step 4
Sencha has a calming and relaxing effect on the central nervous system. This drink has long been used in various meditation practices. It contains L-theanine, an amino acid that has a positive effect on brain activity, giving clarity to the mind. Sencha is considered a mild stimulant that, unlike caffeine, cannot cause hyperactivity, restlessness, or sleep problems. There are special salts and bags of sencha tea extract that are used to make relaxing and soothing baths.
Step 5
This drink can be used as an effective oral hygiene product. Green tea is a natural source of fluorides or fluoride compounds, therefore it actively strengthens tooth enamel and helps prevent the development of tooth decay. Sencha also prevents the formation of bacterial plaque on the teeth and fights various infections of the oral cavity. In addition, a cup of this tea freshens the breath well.
Step 6
Sencha can be used at home. Sleep tea is suitable for watering indoor plants, and soggy leaves can be used as fertilizer. Women apply gruel from steamed sencha tea to the skin of the face and neck as a moisturizing mask. The dried tea leftovers are poured into the shoes, which are removed for storage. This eliminates unpleasant odors.
