Japanese Green Tea

While Japanese green tea is enjoyed in Asia and the West for its health benefits, distinctive taste, and social tradition, it is also useful for a variety of homeopathic treatments. Many people rely on its therapeutic compounds to treat skin problems, inflammation and even anxiety.

Japanese Green Tea Remedies

In addition to drinking two to three cups of Japanese tea each day, you may wish to use the natural wonder-drug in more creative ways. Consider the following homeopathic treatments:

• Soothe puffy eyes and dark circles with green tea. Simply chill a fresh-brewed cup, and soak two to three cotton balls in the tea. Lie flat, and place the cotton balls over closed eyelids for 10 to 15 minutes. If you don't have loose leaf Japanese green tea, try a soaked, chilled green tea bag.
• Because of its anti-bacterial properties, green tea can refresh the skin and kill germs. Make a strong green tea infusion, and place it in a spray bottle to chill. Spritz the tea on your face after workouts or after a long day. The spritz will tone and disinfect your skin.
• Incorporate green tea into home recipes to improve mood. Green tea is an antioxidant and catechin supplement, and has been shown to be both calming and invigorating. Green tea can be added to cakes, smoothies and lattes without changing their taste significantly.
