While black tea and coffee are established Western beverages of choice, the Japanese equivalent of green tea is earning new converts because of its antioxidant, anti-allergy and anti-cancer properties. Though there are now attempts to market the healthy properties in coffee, it is, by nature, a high-caffeine beverage that can be quite dehydrating. While green tea contains more of this stimulant at the raw ingredient stage, its extraction during processing results in less than half the caffeine quantity of coffee for the green tea consumer. Processing also produces superior health benefits for green tea over black tea, but in a different way. Black tea, being fully fermented during manufacturing, loses many of its important, natural health properties. In addition, adding milk or sugar is not necessary for green tea, which needs no enhancement for those who discover its full flavour. </P> <p> Text by raku-cha</P> <BR clear="all"> </td> </tr> </table> </center> </div> <TABLE> <TR> <TD><IMG SRC="../adimg/J807_7403RAKU.jpg" WIDTH="253" HEIGHT="167" BORDER="0" ALT=""></TD> <TD><IMG SRC="../adimg/J807_4921TAKA.jpg" WIDTH="253" HEIGHT="169" BORDER="0" ALT=""></TD> </TR> </TABLE> <!-- InstanceEndEditable --> <table width="100%" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"> <tr> <td><img src="../../../img/spacer.gif" alt="space" width="20" height="20"></td> </tr> </table> <table width="100%" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"> <tr> <td align="center" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><a href="../../../index.html">Back to top page</a> </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="center" bgcolor="#666666"><font color="#FFFFFF">Copyright &copy; 2006-2007 NICHIGO PRESS All rights reserved.</font></td> </tr> </table> </td> </tr> </table> </body> <!-- InstanceEnd --></html>
