Black Tea
Black tea is a powerful source of antioxidants, which medical research suggests may assist in lowering cholesterol and regulating blood sugar. Black tea is much lower in caffeine than coffee, and gently stimulates the heart and circulatory system, keeping blood vessels soft and lowering blood pressure.

Oolong/White/Pu Erh Tea
Oolong teas are semi-fermented, sharing the best qualities of both black and green teas. Mainly from China and Formosa (Taiwan), they are full-bodied teas with a fragrant flavor and a fruity, sweet aroma.
White teas are the most delicate of teas. They are subtle, complex, and naturally sweet, with a pale yellow cup color and a fresh flavor. Pu Erh teas have long been used in China for their medicial properties. They have an earthy flavor, a deep red amber color, and a rich hardiness--yet they are low in caffeine.
