Kyou no Obuduke Genmaicha Loose Leave Green Tea (Japanese Import) [T169]

Description

According to a survey released by the United States Department of Agriculture in 2007, the mean content of flavonoids in a cup of green tea is higher than that in the same volume of other food and drink items that are traditionally considered of health contributing nature, including fresh fruits, vegetable juices or wine. Flavonoids are a group of phytochemicals in most plant products that are responsible for such health effects as anti-oxidative and anticarcinogenic functions (source of information: Wikipedia.)Genmaicha is the Japanese name for green tea combined with roasted brown rice. It is sometimes referred to colloquially as "popcorn tea" because a few grains of the rice pop during the roasting process and resemble popcorn. This type of tea was originally drunk by poor Japanese, as the rice served as a filler and reduced the price of the tea; which is why it is also known as the "people's tea." It was also used by those persons fasting for religious purposes or who found themselves to be between meals for long periods of time. Today it is consumed by all segments of society.Kyou no Obuduke Genmaicha Green Tea is the perfect gift for your loved one, whether it's for the birthday, Mother's Day, Father's Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas, etc. It's definitely the hotest gift for this year.INGREDIENTS: Green Tea, Brown RiceNUTRITION FACTS: Serving Size = 3g; Serving per container = 100; Calories = 0; Fat Calories = 0; Total Fat = 0g; Sat.
