As science continues to uncover connections betweenthe diseases of aging and free radical damage,antioxidants remain a vital safeguard in helping toprotect against the damage caused by free radicals.Diets high in antioxidants, as well as supplementationwith antioxidants have been shown to have aprotective effect in reducing cellular damage causedby free radicals. Specifically, tea has been used forhundreds of years by many cultures throughout theworld for its health promoting properties and hasbeen shown to be a powerful antioxidant. Whilemany people are familiar with green and black tea,white tea is less well known. Although white tea isderived from the same plant from which green andblack tea are made (Camellia sinensis), white tea isconsidered to be a more rare and unique product.The term “white” is derived from the high proportionof silvery buds on the plant at the time of harvesting,which tend to impart a white tint to the tea. Green teais often promoted for the fact that is it minimallyprocessed; however, white tea is the least processedof all the teas, and is rapidly steamed and dried afterpicking. This lack of processing results in a higherconcentration of polyphenols, and consequently,greater antioxidant activity. The apple, pomegranateand blueberry extracts present in FruiTEA-Max™ alsocontribute significant antioxidant activity to thisformulation. In fact, pomegranate juice has beenshown to contain almost three times the total antioxidant ability compared with similar amounts of green tea or red wine.
