Soothe Your Nerves
Not many know of green tea’s mood-altering benefits. Studies have shown that a cup of antioxidant-rich green brew can help calm the nerves, reduce anxiety and improve alertness. This is due to the presence of the amino acid L-theanine, which has a therapeutic effect on the mind and body.

The Beauty of It
Did you know green tea has anti-ageing properties and is therefore great for your skin? You can use it to clean and tone your skin regularly and cost-effectively. Here’s how: Cut open a used green tea bag and empty the slightly wet loose tea into a small bowl. Add a tablespoon of a creamy face cleanser/wash and mix it well. Apply this mixture on your face and neck like you would a face pack. Leave it on till it’s semi-dry (about 10-15 minutes). Gently scrub your face in circular motion, then rinse off with cool water. You can also use green tea like a toner. Just steep a couple of green tea bags in hot water and add a juice of lemon. Let it cool, then add a few drops of tea tree essential oil. Store in a clean spray bottle in a dry and dark place. Spritz it on once or twice a day for skin that looks instantly refreshed. Since it’s preservative-free, it’s best to make a fresh batch in two to three days.
