    Since ancient times, tea has been an integral part of Eastern cultures. In the West and various parts of the world, people are waking up to the enormous health benefits of tea. And it's not just the benefits; it's become a part of our lifestyle now. From calming your mind to helping you start your day on a fresh note, the type of tea you pick will depend on what exactly you're looking for.

    Here are the different types of tea available with bigbasket.

    Exotic and Flavoured Tea

    Exotic and flavoured teas are popular around the world for a reason. There are many studies and research conducted on them which reveal how they're beneficial in preventing diabetes, soothing your digestion, and giving you the mental calmness to contemplate on what you've done for the day. According to the 19th century British Prime Minister, William Ewart Gladstone: "If you are depressed, it will cheer you; If you are excited, it will calm you."

    Green Tea

    Green tea is known to possess the highest amount of polyphenols out of all the teas. It's the least processed, and it has a compound called 'catechin' which are natural antioxidants that prevent damage from free radicals in the body and lowers the risk of many diseases.

    Leaf and Dust Tea

    Leaf and dust tea are more finer than Fannings and have the leaves pulverized into a fine powder. Leaf and dust tea are rarely sold as powders but as tea bags and you won't get them in loose-form in most places.

    Tea Bags

    Tea bags made their commercial debut in 1908, and the reasoning behind their patent was convenience. There's no clean up involved when you use tea bags and the time required to steep is shorter, thus giving you those advantages.

    Health Benefits of Drinking Tea

    Thinking of getting into the habit of drinking tea? Here's a list of health benefits you can expect.

    3. Could Help Lower Your Risk of Heart Attack and Stroke
    There's a lot of evidence that points to the fact that drinking tea long-term leads to a reduced incidence of heart attacks and stroke.
    4. Boosts Your Metabolism
    If you're trying to lose weight, you'll be glad to know that tea boosts your metabolism. This means you burn more calories even while you rest, keeping those pounds off for good.
    5. Protects Your Bone Health
