INFORMATION:
For most of us in the Western world, even imagining a corner of the planet that still houses animals left over from the Miocene epoch (23.03 to 5.33 million years ago) seems unbelievable. As unbelievable as they might sound, such places still exist. As you can probably imagine, these places still retain almost pristine geological and environmental conditions. With their habitats largely unchanged since ancient times, select ancient animal species continue to thrive in them despite the realities of the modern world. Jianxi Province is one such place. Located in China’s South East, Jianxi is one of the last homes of the Muntjac, a genus of Muntiacus, otherwise known as Barking Deer. The Barking Deer made its first appearance on Earth around 15-35 million years ago and can still be found roaming Jianxi’s hills in relatively robust numbers. The region’s abundant sources of fresh water and lush valleys continue to allow this remarkable animal to live in peace as it has always done. Not surprisingly, these same pristine natural conditions also have an amazing effect on Jianxi’s tea crop, giving it some of the highest antioxidant counts anywhere.

Leaf by leaf, Organic HI^Antiox Jas’Vert Green tea, offers incredible levels of antioxidants. (Which in case you’re wondering, is a good thing.) Research suggests that antioxidants and polyphenols in tea may have health benefits that contribute to overall body wellness. In fact, one of the world’s most respected research institutes, the Linus Pauling institute at Oregon State University, has recently made many tea-based discoveries alluding to this fact:
. An Institute study of 40,530 Japanese adults found that green tea was associated with reductions in cardiovascular related deaths.
. Observational studies found that daily consumption of at least 3 cups of tea may be associated with a modest (11%) decrease in the risk of heart attack.
