Ashitaba Longevity Tea

　　    Ashitaba Longevity Tea

　　    Ashitaba, also known as longevity herb, is a perennial herbaceous plant with a unique fragrance. It is rich in nine vitamins, sixteen amino acids, and trace elements such as calcium, manganese, magnesium, and germanium, as well as components like folic acid, pantothenic acid, phenylbutenone, and rutin.

　　    Ashitaba is native to Hachijojima Island in Japan, where many centenarians live, earning the island the nickname "Longevity Island." After repeated research by experts into the reasons for the islanders' longevity, it is believed to be related to their regular consumption of Ashitaba, hence its other name, longevity herb. The black tea made from it has various health benefits, including boosting the immune system, preventing ulcers, resisting thrombosis, lowering cholesterol, reducing blood lipids, preventing cancerous changes, and nourishing nerve endings. It also shows some effectiveness against conditions like hepatitis, high blood pressure, diabetes, and constipation, and has no side effects.
