Green Tea. An infusion of green tea alongside a Victorian illustration
An infusion of green tea alongside a Victorian illustration of the tea plant Camellia sinensis. Green tea is the least processed of the varieties of teas, consequently it retains the highest concentration of the antioxidant polyphenols, particularly EGCG (epigallocatechin-3 gallate), a catechin which protects against age-related degenerative diseases. Recent research in China suggests that regularly drinking green tea promotes the generation of brain cells involved in recollection and spatial learning by destroying free radicals. The health benefits have been extensively researched with particular emphasis to Alzheimers disease, cardiovascular diseases and osteoporosis

This print showcases the beauty and health benefits of green tea. An infusion of vibrant green tea leaves is artfully juxtaposed with a Victorian illustration of the Camellia sinensis plant, from which this remarkable beverage is derived. Green tea, known for being the least processed among all teas, boasts an exceptional concentration of polyphenols, particularly EGCG (epigallocatechin-3 gallate). This powerful antioxidant has been proven to protect against age-related degenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, cardiovascular ailments, and osteoporosis. Recent research conducted in China has shed light on another incredible benefit of regularly consuming green tea: it promotes the generation of brain cells involved in recollection and spatial learning by combating harmful free radicals. These findings have sparked great interest in harnessing green tea's potential to enhance memory and cognitive functions. Sheila Terry's photograph not only captures the essence of this ancient elixir but also serves as a visual reminder of its numerous health advantages. The intricate details showcased within this print invite viewers to delve into the world where science meets nature – a world where camellia sinensis reigns supreme as a source of wellness and vitality.
