Feel sleepy at work? Refresh your mind with a cup of tie guan yin
tea then. But pay attention that it’s not a good habit of
drinking tea with an empty stomach. It’s said that drinking tea with empty
stomach you’ll get your body covered by disease.
The professor Li Yuehua from
the Chinese traditional medicine academy of sciences says that drinking tea has
a lot of advantages, it’s for all the people except who suffer from canker,
anaemia and insomnia. The patients with cardiovascular disease and diabetes and
people who work before the computer for a long time, should especially drink tea
often.
When we drink tea, we should pay attention to the drinking time. For
example, drinking tea at night will cause bad sleep, which we should avoid.
Drinking tea in the morning will not give health to human but have bad effects
on the contrary. That is because tea leaves contain caffeine, if drink the tie
guan yin tea with an empty stomach, the Dragon well
tea tea water goes straight into the stomach and solar plexus may
make intestine absorb much more caffeine, which may cause the adrenocortical
hyperfunction. That may cause dismayed and frequency of micturtion. With a long
time, it’ll influence body’s absorbing of vitamin B1.
Therefore, from that
ancient times, there is an old saying as no drinking tea with empty stomach.
Generally speaking, it’s good for drink green tea in spring and summer, which
may refresh minds and reducing fever, while for autumn and winter, we’d better
choose black tea and oolong tea, which drives chilliness and nourish the
stomach. For the generic black tea, green tea and scented tea, brew it for three
times. Put a large amount of tie guan yin leaves when brewed, brew for times for
they are old and tough. For the tea-bag, usually brew it for only once. A cup of
tea should not be brewed from morning to evening, because after several times of
brewing, some insoluble hazardous substance will gradually appear, which is
harmful to bodies. The perfect drinking way is one cup of tea for morning and
one for the afternoon, which is fresh and no losing of tea aroma. In a word,
never try to drink tea with an empty stomach.
Tie guan yin tea, with rich chemical ingredients, is natural body-building beverage. Drinking it regularly is good for keeping skin white, clean and tender as well as reducing wrinkle.
If your eyes are tired by overuse, you may clean eyes by cold tie guan yin tea, and spray some cold water a few minutes later and pat it dried, which is helpful to alleviate fatigue.
The main reasons causing the black eye are lack of sleep, overuse of eyes, long time stimulation, lack of vitamin B12, slight inflammation, anemia, long exposure in the sun, heredity, careless nurse and menstruation. Therefore, we may prevent it according to different situations. The best way to prevent the black eye is to work and rest in gear with enough sleep and balanced nutrition; get more exercise and more fresh air to reduce pressure; avoid exposuring in the sun to reduce the black melanin. The easiest way to remove the black eye: dip two bags of tie guan yin leaves into water, put the tea bags on closed eyes one for one for 15 minutes. Or wrap ice with a handkerchief and keep it on eyes for minutes. Keep doing that!
For the damaged skin in the sun, you may also get a piece of cotton, dip Dragon well tea some tie guan yin tea and rub the skin. Cosmetic on eyes must be removed quietly before sleep, but if clean it without right ways, eyes would be red and swelled. Better dip the tie guan yin tea bags in warm water for 10 minutes, then put the wet bags around eyes, not be too close to eyes.

Tea is a kind of popular beverage nowadays and also a kind of gift. However,
there are a few of people who truly know how to drink tea and as for how to
choose tea, there are much less. Today, we’ll learn the five wrong ways to
choose tie guan yin tea.
1. Buy tea by its names. In the tea market, all the
tea may be titled with famous tea names. As for oolong tea, it is titled with
tie guan yin tea,
dongding oolong or dahongpao tea, for green tea, it is called lungching, defang,
biluochun or huangshan maofeng tea. Tea-lovers must be clear to know the fact
that famous tea would not be everywhere.
2. Buy tea by its packaging.
Inferior tea is always shining wrapped in porcelain bottles, tin pots or
rosewood boxes, which can be called fair without foul within.
3. Buy the
whole set of tea. The wicked businessmen would integrate all kinds of inferior
teas and add an so-called elegant or excellent package, then name it as “Five
kinds of famous tea or Eight kinds of famous tea”. Tea-lovers must keep it in
mind that it would never be so easy to taste all kinds of famous tea.
4. Buy
tea by the places. Go to the lands of tea, especially tourist attractions such
as Huangshan, Lushan and Wuyi mountain. Never ever buy tea at vendor’s stand or
the so-called farmhouses, you’ll 99.99% be fooled. Tea there would be fake or
inferior or worth false price.
5. Buy tea by its grade. The words “nonsuch,
gold award, superb work and superfine” are always printed on the tea packages.
Actually, tea at first had grades and the country had clear rules about that,
but now the rules has been messed. In addition, some businessmen are cunning,
they make a big fuss about the grades. For example, they divide the dongding
oolong tea into nonesuch, gold award, silver award and superfine, while
superfine the highest level becomes the lowest level.
According to my humble
opinion, if we buy tea by appearance, we’d better choose leaves with green,
yellow-green or dark green color; for black tea, leaves are with shining dark
red color; for oolong tea, it’s hard to choose, for the north Fujian oolong tea,
choose the black color and for the south Fujian Drangon well
tea, pick the tea with dark green color.
Origin and evolvement of the white tie guan yin tea
The so-called white
tie guan yin tea in Tang&Song Dynasty is made of the leaves from the
occasionally found white tie guan yin tree, which is different from the white
tie guan yin tea developed without frying or kneading. When in the Ming Dynasty,
there appeared the white tie guan yin
tea that’s similar to the one now.
The modern white tie
guan yin tea is evolved gradually from the green tie guan yin tea of Song
Dynasty. It indicated the silver white “Baihaoyinzhen”at first and then
developed into “white peony”, “Gongmei”, ”Shoumei” and other
varieties.
Emergence and development of red tie guan yin tea
The red tie
guan yin tea originated from the 16th century. In the process of producing and
developing of tie guan yin tea, people found that use solarizing instead of
deactivating enzymes and kneading will turn leaves into red. The earliest red
tie guan yin tea is planted in Chongan of Fujian province. From the small scale
planting of red tie guan yin tea in the star village, it gradually evolved into
the kongfu red tie guan yin tea. In the late 20 years of the 20th century, the
red tie guan yin tea in India developed into pulverized red Drangon well
tea. In 1950s, China started to make the pulverized red tie guan
yin tea.
Origin the blue-green tie guan yin tea
The blue-green tie guan
yin tea is between the green and red tie guan yin tea with the producing of
green first and red later, from which we get the producing of blue-green tie
guan yin tea. There’s still a controversy about the origin of blue-green tie
guan yin, some people deduced that it came up in north Song Dynasty but some
thought that it was in Qing Dynasty. However the place is consilient in Fujian
province. The facture of the Wuyi Rock tie guan yin tea of Fujian keeps the
feature of this traditional technics.
