Uses
Snow Shan tea is one of the premium teas that many people love. Thanks to the delicious taste, this tea also brings many good health benefits such as reducing fatigue, anti-ageing, antibacterial, and preventing diseases.
A. Snow Shan tea leaves help limit oxidation and ageing
Polyphenols are a type of antioxidant found in some foods and beverages, including shan snow tea. Groups of polyphenols, including catechins, theaflavins, and thearubigins, are the primary antioxidants in shan snow tea and may promote health.
According to a 2008 study, the tea plant (Camellia sinensis) contains many antioxidant components called catechin groups. If you have seen advertisements for green tea containing EGCG (Epigallocatechin gallate), EGCG is also catechin. What makes EGCG famous is that this substance has a complete chemical structure, so the antioxidant capacity is also the best compared to other catechins.
Consuming foods rich in antioxidants will help the body fight free radicals. Free radicals are one of many causes of premature ageing, inflammatory symptoms, reduced resistance, and many other diseases. According to this study, Snow Shan green tea has similar antioxidant content with shan white tea. So these two teas are ranked first for their ability to help eliminate free radicals in the body.
B. Snow Shan tea helps prevent and prevent cancer.
Recent studies have shown that the content of anticancer substances in Snow Shan tea is 11 times higher than that of the best Japanese green tea.
Recently, a study conducted by the American Institute for Cancer Research and Prevention found that green tea contains an ingredient called polyphenol E that can limit the growth of cancerous tumours in the blood vessels intestine. Some polyphenols, especially from flavan-3-ol (in the form of catechins), have been shown to prevent the effects of cancer as well as being mutagenic. Some polyphenols will exhibit the properties of anticancer drugs such as etoposide and doxorubicin.
The carbohydrates in Snow Shan tea help prevent diseases such as bacteria and viruses.
They have many essential roles in living organisms, such as storing and transporting energy (such as starch and glycogen). In addition, carbohydrates and their derivatives are vital in the immune system’s work to protect against infection with increasingly specific defences. Simply put, physical barriers prevent pathogens such as bacteria and viruses from entering the body.
Drinking Snow Shan tea to prevent lung cancer
Of the 11 studies on the anti-lung cancer role of Vitamin C, 9 showed a reduced risk of cancer with high doses. Five of these results were quite clear, and four proved that Vitamin C is more effective than beta-carotene. Gladys Block, an author who pioneered the cancer-preventing antioxidant movement in the US, wrote: “Recent studies suggest that Vitamin C is a potent protective factor against lung cancer. more established and effective than beta-carotene as previously mentioned”.
Drinking Snow Shan tea prevents cancer of the mouth, oesophagus and stomach
The vitamin C present in natural Snow Shan tea has many uses. Seven out of eight oral cancer studies found that low vitamin C intake was a high-risk factor. Those who ate the least amount of vitamin C daily had twice the risk of oral cancer than those who ate the most. Results were similar in oesophagal cancer. Meanwhile, 16/16 studies showed that taking more vitamin C daily was significantly effective in protecting against stomach cancer. Stomach cancer is closely associated with certain carcinogenic compounds known as nitrosamines. Nitrosamine is produced when eating smoked meats. Vitamin C significantly inhibits the formation of nitrosamines. The vitamin C present in natural Snow Shan tea has many uses.
Drinking Snow Shan tea to prevent breast cancer
A retrospective analysis of the role of nutritional factors in breast cancer concluded that “Vitamin C is the most potent protective factor against breast cancer risk factors”. Vitamin C levels are more critical than saturated fatty acids, beta-carotene and vitamin E.
Drinking Snow Shan tea prevents cervical cancer.
The risk of cervical cancer increases dramatically when vitamin C intake decreases. Women who ate less than 88 mg of Vitamin C per day had four times higher risk of cervical cancer than those who ate more. The cases of cervical dysplasia (a precancerous form) and carcinoma in situ had lower vitamin C intake and blood levels than women with a normal cervix. Thus, inadequate Vitamin C intake is an independent risk factor for cervical dysplasia and carcinoma in situ.
Drinking Snow Shan tea to prevent pancreatic cancer
Six out of seven studies show that a high intake of Vitamin C reduces the risk of pancreatic cancer. The risk of this cancer increased 2.6 times in those who took in less than 70 mg of Vitamin C per day compared with those who took more than 159 mg per day.
Drinking Snow Shan tea to prevent colon cancer
The protective role of Vitamin C in colon cancer was demonstrated in 6/8 studies, most of which reduced the risk by two times. According to the National Institute of Cancer, Vitamin C also reduces the formation of carcinogenic compounds produced by bacteria in the colon.
Vitamin C to treat cancer is abundant in Snow Shan tea
The general trend of cancer treatment is challenging to accept the use of vitamin C and similar nutritional supplements. However, the first problem is that we should expand our worldview and change our perspective to gradually remove the reactions that say that dietary products are unscientific.
In 1976, Dr Linus Pauling, one of the most famous scientists of the 20th century with two Nobel Prize winners, brought Vitamin C to the scientific arena when he reported the results of his research with Dr Ewan Cameron. Pauling and Cameron gave terminal cancer patients ten g/day of Vitamin C. 16 of these 100 patients survived for more than one year.
Cameron then performed a similar study on a larger sample of 1826 terminal cancer patients. Two hundred ninety-four patients received high doses of Vitamin C (10 g/day). The remaining 1532 patients were considered as controls. The analysis showed that patients receiving ascorbic acid had twice as long as the control group (343 days versus 180 days).
Many critics have yet to accept the results of Pauling and Cameron. According to them, these studies are not double-blind, so the results are not guaranteed. Several controlled studies have refuted his conclusions.
C. Create excitement, clarity
Snow Shan tea contains a small amount of caffeine, so when drinking, the tea has the effect of making the mind alert and mentally excited, helping tea drinkers focus on working effectively without harm.
Alertness and elation Tea brings a difference. Tea helps to relax the spirit but is still awake, assisting drinkers in getting creative inspiration. That’s thanks to Theanine – an amino acid found naturally in tea. Theanine plays a catalytic role in metabolism and helps to improve brain activity significantly and enhance concentration naturally.
D. Effects on people with cardiovascular diseases
Snow Shan tea contains large amounts of polyphenol compounds, which are known to have cardiovascular benefits, including the ability to improve the function of blood vessels, more dilation and less constriction. These compounds can also increase good cholesterol to protect the heart.
A study of 40,530 Japanese adults found that participants who drank more than five cups of green tea daily had a 26% lower risk of dying from a heart attack or stroke and a 16% lower risk. All-cause mortality compared with those who drank less than one cup of green tea daily.
E. Helps to melt fat, lose weight
Currently, many people are using Snow Shan tea as a drink to lose weight, maintain a slim waist, and have noticed a noticeable effect. A cup of tea after each meal will help reduce fat absorption from food and is also very beneficial for the digestive system.
That’s because the caffeine in tea can improve the secretion of gastric juice, speed up digestion, and enhance the ability to break down fat. The mixture of vitamins in tea helps reduce excess fat in the body. However, its effectiveness is different for each person, and each person has their adaptation
F. Beauty for women
What effect does Snow Shan tea have on women? Snow Shan Tea’s composition contains a lot of vitamins and minerals, including a large amount of vitamin C, promoting the production of collagen in the body.
Collagen has long been known for its ability to support the growth of skin cells and blood vessels, resulting in healthier, more elastic, younger-looking skin. This is a highly safe and effective natural source of collagen for women to have healthy skin from within and full of vitality.
Even though history books also record from ancient times, the Chinese have known the effects of Snow Shan tea. They pick tea leaves and bring them home to boil or take a bath and feel healthy, their skin smooth and free of pimples. This is because tea also contains polyphenols (substances that give tea its characteristic acrid taste) that have high antibacterial effects without being toxic.
Moreover, research on the use of Snow Shan tea has shown that the compound EGCG (Epi Gallo Catechin Galat) in tea has a powerful antioxidant effect, eliminates free radicals, and reduces wrinkles and other manifestations of old.

A. How to preserve ancient Snow Shan green tea
The preservation of tea is essential to help the tea retain the inherent flavour and colour of the water. This is the best way to preserve the ancient Snow Shan green tea you can refer to.
Do not expose tea to light, heat and air.
This is one of the essential factors when preserving the Xinjiang green tea line. Because tea, if exposed to light, heat and air, will quickly lose colour, flavour and health effects. Therefore, when storing, keeping away from locations exposed to these elements is necessary. Also, placing the tea in a cool, dry place is best.
At the same time, when storing them, you should keep them in opaque glass jars. Because light contains a lot of ultraviolet rays, it will lose tea taste. Therefore, if you store tea in a transparent glass jar, it is easy to affect the quality of the tea.
It is best to store tea in opaque glass, ceramic or porcelain containers.
Preservation of ancient Snow Shan green tea must be careful to avoid oxidation and reduce tea taste. Tea is straightforward to absorb moisture and odour, so when storing it, it should be stored in odourless glass, ceramic or porcelain jars. Because tea, if stored in pots with a long smell, will stick to the scent of other products during use.
At the same time, when storing in jars, the lids should be tightly closed to prevent air exposure simply because exposure to the air will make the tea lose its inherent flavour. Therefore, the ancients often had a way to preserve the ancient Snow Shan green tea: to put it in ceramic and porcelain jars and use a banana leaf stopper to cover it. This helps keep the tea from moisture and prevents insects from entering.
Always keep the tea dry.
When storing Ancient Snow Shan green tea, you must ensure it is dry. Because if the tea is exposed to moisture, it will be susceptible to mould. Therefore, any tea should be put in an airtight jar or container and stored in a cool, dry place with low humidity.
Need to stay away from odours

Because if you are subjective and close enough, you will find that your tea has a strange taste. So the best solution is still to put the tea in sealed jars. Only then will the tea retain its original aroma and prevent them from absorbing strong odours.
Tea should be stored in a cool, dry place.
The biggest enemies of ancient Shan snow green tea are light and moisture. Therefore, the best place to store tea is a place with little light and stable temperature, like a kitchen cabinet. However, tea should be avoided near the stove. Because this is where moisture and heat can be generated, it will quickly spoil the tea.
Tie up the tea pack well if you’re not using a container
Tie the tea pack tightly if you’re not storing it in a glass, ceramic, or porcelain jar. Because after the tea package has been cut, the tea will be evaporated. Therefore, after taking the tea, shake the tea bag gently in your hand to help push all the tea to the bottom of the bag. Then, wipe out the air inside and roll the edge of the bag several times. Finally, tie the bag tightly so that air does not get inside.
Separate cups of flavoured and unflavored dry tea
Flavoured dry tea, if combined with unmarinated tea, will spread the scent to each other. Therefore, how to preserve the old Snow Shan green tea with the right taste and without losing its delicate aroma, keep it separate.

You can still store tea in the refrigerator, although there are better places than this one. However, before placing it in the fridge, it is necessary to pack it carefully by vacuuming it. Thus, the tea retains its original taste even if you keep it in the refrigerator for a long time.
Handling damp tea
The best way to deal with damp tea is to use an unscented iron pot or pan. Next, put a white paper, pour the tea, and dry it on low heat. Only dry for 1-2 minutes until the tea is no longer moist. Stay dry for a short time; it will burn the tea. Finally, after cooling, put the tea in storage.
