German researchers believe that the polyphenols in black, green, white, and oolong tea neutralize the free radical in skin that cause redness and flakiness. They also believe these compounds promote the formation of skin-plumping collagen. It is also believed by many that these same polyphenols reduce the risk factors for cardiovascular disease. Enjoy 2 - 8 oz glasses of iced tea daily this summer for a more youthful glow.Sun Tea:
Place 4 to 6 tea bags per 2 quarts into a glass container. Fill with water and cap. Place outside in the direct sunlight for about 3 to 5 hours. Move the container if necessary to keep it in the direct sun. When the tea has reached its desired strength, remove from sun and put it in the refrigerator. Serve over ice with lemon and mint. This is best when outside temperatures reach 95 degrees.
