For year thousands that the Chinese claimed a lot of advantages of health can be won to drink teas. Indeed, a lot international, the Canadian and United States based drinkers of tea consent that Chinese teas should be the choice drink.

Indeed, for a recent investigation directed by the Counsel of Canadian, more than 40% Tea of Canadians consented than they drank tea for his "the advantages of health" and of others declared than it "tasted big, had not calorie or fatty one and can help takes you the better care of you".

The latter years has only the medical community jumped on the train in market of Chinese tea. Now, the researchers direct numerous studies on the practicability of extracts of Chinese tea in the treatment and the obstacle of a lot of diseases and of conditions. The types more common of Chinese teas are:

Green tea
Red tea
White tea
Black tea
Oolong tea
Been able erh tea
Bloom tea
Yellow tea
Supported tea
Iron the Buddha
Kudin tea

Nevertheless, of these eleven types, the scientists seem the more interested with the green erudition, red, the white, and black tea. Here a small bottom of these teas:

Each of them come from the even plants Camellia sinensis but simply are chosen to the different steps of development and fermented or oxidized for the different periods of time.

The differences in the oxidation and the development hold the account of more or less than a certain type of antioxidants in them called often catechins. The antioxidants were showed to help protects the body of all types of damages.

Happy for us, certain of the claimed advantages seem of they exists really. For example, Chinese teas can help lower and maintains your cholesterol levels.

A recent study looked at the possibility that the antioxidants in Chinese teas, epigallocatechin gallate in particular called (EGCG) could affect the system induced Hypercholesterolemia in the rats.

Hypercholesterolemia is high of the levels of LDL or the "bad" cholesterol in the blood. This in of himself is not a disease but it can cause the heart diseases, as Atherosclerosis or 'hardening arteries'.

In the study, the laboratory rats were divided in four groups. These groups all were given a high system in the cholesterol and the fatty one with no EGCG, 0.2 grams EGCG, 0.4 grams EGCG and 0.7 grams EGCG by the group on a daily basis.

The rats were given the same system for four weeks. After this time it was found that the levels of bad cholesterol in the given rats 0.7 grams EGCG significantly were reduced in comparison of the levels of bad cholesterol in the group of check of given rats no EGCG to all.

Besides, the rats were given meal liquidates to a sample a top in the cholesterol and it was observed that the cholesterol absorption in the intestines in the rat group that THE MORE of given EGCG significantly was reduced (62.7%) compared to the check group with no EGCG (79.3%).

In the gasoline, the study showed that the cholesterol in the food the rats of EGCG were not given were absorbed in their body as easily it would be normally, preventing it thus to obtain in the sanguine current.

The researchers speculated that the EGCG interfered with cholesterol solubility in the device liqueur for that it could not be absorbed.

Another study of rats of laboratory had similar results. This study used the extracts of Green tea, Jasmine, iron Buddha, the teas of Oolong and Been able erh in to examine their effects on hypercholesterolemia in the rats.

The tea of Jasmine is done a mixture of flowers of Jasmine and of Oolong or black tea leaves. The tea of Oolong is fermented or is oxidized to a level between green tea and black tea in the taste.
Been able erh is a tea does the leaves of tea that are fermented and then is aged for as much of as 50 years. The tea of iron Buddha is a tea of renowned Oolong for a notably good perfume.

This rat group was given the extracts of different tea in their respective groups with a high system of continued cholesterol to a high system of cholesterol for a week before to receive for eight weeks.

All teas were found to lower the index of atherogenic and increase the total "good" vs. the "bad" cholesterol proportion in the rats.

Green tea and the extracts of tea of Jasmine contained higher levels of EGCG than the other extracts and it was found than they significantly had lowered the levels of cholesterol in the rats in comparison of the other extracts of tea.

Teas worked also to reduce the average increase in the size of liver of the rats because of the disposal of lipide while they were on their high systems of cholesterol.
