Teabealaste
Teabealaste, also known as tea leaves, are the dried leaves of the Camellia sinensis plant, which are used to prepare tea. The leaves are harvested from the tea plant, typically after the first and second flushes, and are then processed to remove stems and other non-leaf materials. The processing methods vary depending on the type of tea being produced, such as black, green, white, or oolong tea. Tea leaves are rich in antioxidants, particularly catechins, which are believed to have various health benefits, including anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer properties. They are also a significant source of caffeine and contain various minerals and vitamins. Tea leaves are widely consumed as a beverage worldwide, with different cultures having their own unique traditions and preferences for brewing and enjoying tea. The global tea industry is a multi-billion-dollar market, with tea leaves being a key commodity in the trade.
