On December 7th, the Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism of the State Council for Response to the Novel Coronavirus Pneumonia issued the Notice on Further Optimizing and Implementing COVID-19 Prevention and Control Measures. As control measures are optimized, we need to take the initiative in improving our health literacy, self-protection capabilities, and immunity, taking responsibility for our own health.
The Omicron variant primarily infects the upper respiratory tract. Drinking Fuding white Tea can alleviate symptoms such as fever and sore throat, while also enhancing the body's immune system.
Traditional Chinese medicine confirms that White Tea is cool in nature and has effects of cooling, reducing heat, expelling dampness, and detoxifying.
Professor Liu Zhonghua, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, and his research team found through observation of cytopathic effects (CPE) that Fuding white tea can improve cellular immunity.

How does white tea preserve its beneficial components?
Fuding white tea is processed naturally without frying or rolling, preserving the maximum amount of nutrients and active enzymes in the leaves. It has the lowest content of free radicals among teas, and its internal components undergo changes during storage. As tea polyphenols transform during storage, flavonoid content increases, making Fuding white tea the tea with the highest flavonoid content among the six major types of tea. Additionally, substances like theaflavins, thearubigins, thearubroins, and aromatic compounds continuously form and change.
A popular saying in Fuding goes: “Fuding white tea – one-year tea, three-year medicine, seven-year treasure.” According to legend, during the era of Emperor Yao, Grandma Taomu used white tea to treat measles in children. Fuding tea farmers often use aged white tea to treat ailments like sore throats, toothaches, travel sickness, fevers of unknown origin, and various other illnesses, with remarkable effectiveness.
The anti-inflammatory properties and immune-boosting benefits of aged white tea, combined with the stomach-soothing and cough-relieving effects of rock sugar, make them a perfect pair this winter!
