I mainly drink: white chia tea, green tea and black tea. I don’t add anything to any of the teas I drink like milk or sugar. What are the health benefits?
Tea has some antioxidants. From black teas [varying degrees of fermentation and blackness] to green and then white, black has the least and white the most. And white tea is from the buds as opposed to the leaves, which may concentrate antioxidants. Antioxidants are lost to a certain extent in the fermentation process. Black teas being the most fermented. Stick with white tea if it is antioxidants you are interested in. If you want a caffeine free tea that is full of antioxidants then look for green rooibos tea as this is naturally caffeine free. Not aware that you can get a white rooibos tea as of yet.
Adding milk to tea neutralizes some of the antioxidants so again if it is antioxidants you are interested in then stick with drinking your tea without milk… I don’t think milk goes very well with green and white tea anyway 
For anyone with iron-deficiency anaemia who has to take iron supplements, as recommended by a doctor, they should avoid black tea and coffee as the tannins can interfere with iron absorption.
Anything you know about Tazo Tea and its benefits would be great!
There is alot of scientific research going on on tea right now. What the cultures of long ago believed about the health benefits of tea is being discovered and reported by scientists today. Green tea by far has been found to have the highest level of antioxidants. Black tea, white tea, oolong and rooibus all have been reported to have health benefits.
Of course loose leaf tea is reported to have the highest quality of nutrition. Store bought tea in bags contain the poorest quality of tea- actually from the left over products from the dried loose leaf teas.
There are many herbal teas that are very tasty and have health benefits as well. I get my information and products from www.your-cup-of-tea.com
For a college class I am doing a research paper over the health benefits of tea, particularly those relating to students. I am required to have a primary source included and would like to contact someone with knowledge in the area. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I should go about finding one? Communication by email is enough for my purposes
You can go to a medical library and ask the librarian to do a search of recent articles about the health benefits of tea. With those results, try to contact the publisher or author(s) of the article(s) by doing a bit of extra research.
You could also do a search yourself– www.PubMed.gov is a great place to start. Also, try www.Medlineplus.gov. That’s a great resource for consumer information.

Can tea tree oil get rid of pimples by using it regularly?how about the jojoba oil?
i don’t think jojoba oil will do anything for your acne
BUT! tea tree oil, dip a qtip in some and use it as a spot treatment on your pimples, or get a wet cotton ball and put a TINY drop on it and use it on your whole face
if you use it full strength on your skin itll dry it out like CRAZY! just don’t do it haha
you can use witchhazel as a good natural astringent every morning and night before you use your tea tree oil(:
just put some on a cotton ball and rub it all over haha
good luck! (:
make sure you’re using a good moisturizer too, i use philosphy hope in a jar, it’s really damn pricey but it’s SAVED my skin. like all my redness is gone and it’s getting rid of my acne scars (:
you can find that at sephora
another good cheap moisturizer is aveeno calming, but the philosophy is waaay better!
