Decaffeinated Black Tea

This is the best Decaffeinated Black Tea around. It is our “House” Decaf Tea made from Ceylon Orange Pekoe (OP), the leaves of which undergo the Co2 Decaffeination process.

Anyone looking to cut down their intake, then, has decided well here. Perhaps best of all, it has the same great taste as “regular” Tea, boasting full-bodied, brisk and refreshing flavours with every sip.

How is Black Tea Decaffeinated?

The Co2 process is the safest and most efficient method of decaffeinating Loose Tea and Fresh Coffee. It works by using pressurised liquid carbon dioxide to extract the small caffeine molecules, all the while retaining the larger flavour molecules.

The result is that it removes between 96% and 98% of caffeine. This leads us to another question: Precisely how much of Decaffeinated Black Tea’s caffeine remains?

Decaffeinated Black Tea Caffeine Content

Does Decaffeinated Black Tea have caffeine at all? Technically, yes - although it is minimal. No type of “real” Tea from the Camellia sinensis (Tea) plant, regardless of whether it’s been decaffeinated, is 100% void of it.

What you have here, however, is the next best thing. This delicious and healthy infusion has no more than 5-10-mg of caffeine per 8-oz cup. That we can confidently guarantee.

4, Allow it to steep for 3-5 minutes.

Decaffeinated Black Tea Benefits

Is Decaffeinated Black Tea good for you? Absolutely. However, it might not influence your health and wellbeing in quite the same way as caffeinated varieties.

This is because of the processing that the leaves experience, which extracts not only caffeine but also, unfortunately, Decaffeinated Black Tea antioxidants. Yet worry not. Frequent consumption can still play a role in your daily life.

Decaffeinated Black Tea and Acid Reflux

Acid reflux (better known as “heartburn”) is a condition characterised as a burning pain in the lower chest area. It occurs when acid in the stomach flows back up into the food pipe (oesophagus).

Experts believe that caffeine in Tea and Coffee can trigger it, which is, perhaps unsurprisingly, less of a concern with Decaffeinated Black Tea and acid reflux.

Decaffeinated Black Tea Diuretic

The term “Diuretic” refers to promoting the formation of urine. Despite sounding odd, such an ability could afford protection from numerous ailments related to blood pressure, swollen tissues and kidney disease.

Is Decaffeinated Black Tea a diuretic? Not really. The reason is its lack of caffeine, which, while beneficial in many other ways, isn’t the case for promoting diuretic capabilities.

Decaffeinated Black Tea Weight Loss

Back to the good news: Decaffeinated Black Tea health benefits might decrease the size of your waistline. The reason is its ability to boost the metabolism of fat cells, enabling the body to burn fat quicker and more efficiently.

It should be recognised that caffeinated Black Tea does a better job of it. Regardless, the result is likely that, with time and effort on your part, you could fit into your favourite pair of jeans again.

Can I drink Decaffeinated Black Tea while pregnant? Advice from NHS Choices suggests that there’s little to worry about. According to the institute, so long as you avoid more than 200-mg of caffeine daily, you should be fine.
