It's Tea Time!

It may not jolt you awake as quick as your usual Starbucks order might, but replacing tea with the usual morning drink could improve your overall health drastically.  
 
Tea has numerous benefits for the entire body- such as protecting your bones, whitening your teeth, boosting your immune system, keeping you hydrated, increasing your metabolism, minimizing cancer risk, oh, and did we mention- it's calorie free. But what we at Enza Essentials love about tea is the huge benefits on your skin care.

Green tea, specifically, can help minimize the risks of skin cancer as it exerts sun damage protection and may enhance sun protection when used with sunscreen. Additionally, tea's antioxidants and anti-inflammatory activities help slow down the signs of aging including wrinkles and skin sagging. When combined with other skin care products, tea can help improve overall skin texture, appearance, and function.

And not to mention tea's calming effect. Studies have shown that tea drinkers will recover more quickly from stressful situations because tea lowers levels of cortisol, a stress hormone, in the body. Green tea, specifically, is famous for its calming effect on the body, keeping your skin too, worry-free.

Maybe try a cup or two, as the weather cools, and the holiday buzz is just beginning to start there is now better time than now to add tea into your daily routine. Warm up the holidays with a cup of black, white, or green tea and begin reaping the benefits now!
