Health Benefits Pu-erh tea can be enjoyed simply for its smoothness and subtly sweet flavor, for its health benefits, or both. Antioxidants The antioxidant properties of tea are well-known and thoroughly studied. Like other teas, pu-erh tea is also a rich source of the antioxidants. According to research published in Molecules, both raw and ripe pu-erh tea contain antioxidant activity due to the presence of polyphenols. The benefits of antioxidants include heart health, reduced risk of infection, and reduced risk of some cancers. Probiotics When food and drinks are fermented, they contain beneficial bacteria. This bacteria can help the gut microbiome by introducing probiotics. Probiotics have proven gut health and immune health benefits. Weight Loss Several types of tea have been touted for their weight loss benefits, including green tea, matcha tea, and more. Studies have also found a correlation between pu-erh tea consumption and weight loss. A study published in China Science Journal found that the bioactive components in pu-erh tea help reduce the content of lipids in the blood, aiding in weight loss in humans and animals. Reduces Cholesterol Levels In addition to the heart health-promoting antioxidant benefits of pu-erh tea, it is also beneficial for improving cholesterol levels. This may help reduce the risk of heart disease. One study published in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry found that pu-erh and other teas can lower body weight, triglyceride levels, and total cholesterol levels in rats. Though animal models are promising, this research has not been concluded in human studies.
