We are living in a time driven by individuality and customization, and the tea world is no different. Tea, like manga, is a very versatile drink that has taken the world by storm. Each variety has a unique taste, so you can try different flavors, finding the ones you like best. Whether you’re the rich & refined Akira, the mysteriously secretive L, the Darjeeling who never spills her tea or the fierce fighter Levi Ackerman, there’s a tea for every palate and a time for every tea.

If you’re an O-TeA-KU, then you must be aware of the numerous health benefits that naturalists, nutritionists and medical practitioners associate with tea. The vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants found in tea have shown to provide many short and long-term health benefits that can range from treating a cold to relieving stress, to anti-aging properties. The flavonoids and catechins in tea fight cancer, boost energy levels, improve metabolism, treat insomnia, reduce cholesterol and detoxify the body to leave your physique and mind feeling refreshed and rejuvenated.

Academia as well as medical practitioners and naturalists, all agree on the ways in which tea can help the human body, from cardiovascular health and cognition to a good night’s sleep and an overall sense of calm and harmony. With the advent of global medico-nutritional research, the world is coming to grips with all the possibilities a simple cup of tea contains.
