Among all the useful varieties of tea, real red Chinese tea can be singled out separately. The range of substances and elements contained in it is so large that you can write an independent review article about it. For this reason, we have limited ourselves to listing only the elements contained in Chinese red tea, which speaks of its benefits for your health. We recommend buying red tea if you pay due attention to your health, especially since you can do this profitably due to the price at which it is offered in the «Miy Chay» online store, and right now, spending a minimum of time on placing an order. But before that, we strongly recommend reading the description of red Chinese tea to the end, because it can be harmful to certain people, under certain conditions.

Red tea: composition

The entire list of beneficial properties of red tea, which you can buy in our online store, is due to the content of a huge number of different vitamins in it, including:

• vitamin A and carotene have a beneficial effect on general health and the condition of hair, teeth and bones, skin and mucous membranes, respiratory organs and vision;

• Vitamin K, which is responsible for the clotting rate of human blood and regulates the functioning of the liver, as well as ensuring the proper performance of all its functions.

In addition to the above, red Chinese tea contains a large amount of anthocyanins and catechins, tannin, organic acids and quinones, which give it a unique aroma, pigments and proteins (alkaloids, enzymes, etc.), theine, which is a tonic substance and is often called “tea caffeine”, chlorophyll and polysaccharides, as well as minerals (magnesium and manganese, iron and calcium, sodium and many others).

For all its usefulness, this variety can also be harmful.

Contraindications to drinking red tea

If you want to get all the benefits of the original red Chinese tea, which you can buy in our web market, then you should not brew it too strong and try to drink it right away. The optimal temperature for it is 50 ° C. If you brew red tea for a long time, the substances contained in it will begin to oxidize and break down, which will negatively affect your well-being and overall health.

We also draw your attention to the fact that strong red tea should not be drunk on an empty stomach. In this case, severe nausea and general discomfort may occur. The optimal time for drinking red tea is between meals.

What is "real Chinese red tea"?

Speaking of Chinese red tea, newcomers to the elite tea industry often have in mind a variety such as classic hibiscus. However, this is a misconception. Hibiscus is a drink, not real tea. For its production, the leaves are simply dried and then brewed. In China, high-quality red teas with different production technologies are called because of the shades of the infusion, which has the color of the sunset or a red-brown, burgundy tone. If you buy natural red tea, you will be able to feel the power of delicate flavors and honey, floral-fruity aromas, representing the versatility of rich drinks.

Production is carried out as follows. After harvesting, tea leaves are only whole, fresh, carefully processed and spread in a thin layer on special shelves. Further drying is carried out for no more than 18 hours (excess moisture evaporates). The leaves become elastic and freely curl. For this, some manufacturers use manual labor, others use machines. The curled raw materials are crushed, releasing juice, after which another drying stage takes place. Then it is sent to special rooms with low temperature and special humidity. There the product is formed into layers, not exceeding 10 cm thick. In this state, the fermentation process takes place and a unique aroma with floral or nutty shades is acquired. After that, additional drying is carried out under hot air. This sequence of production processes allows you to preserve essential oils in the leaves. And, the final stage is sorting and packaging of the finished raw materials.
