China is a tea-rich country. Records began as early as the 6th century spread to North Korea from China, Japan, Russia, Europe and all over the 

world. Throughout the centuries, the Chinese has accumulated a large collection of Chinese tea. The health benefits of drinking Chinese tea are
well known in Asia.

One particular tea, “persimmon leaf tea,” has been pinpointed by experts in the medical profession, for its healthy effects. “Persimmon leaf tea,”
by definition, is tea brewed from the leaves taken from the persimmon tree. Persimmons have been cultivated and grown for several thousands
of years.

As a result, the country is home to a large variety of persimmons. This succulent orange fruit is nicknamed the “emperor’s tribute.”
The persimmon seedlings, also known as “Persimmon Ye,” is known to be rich in vitamins and minerals. It is a staple in traditional Chinese
medicine, which believes sickness and ailments can be healed with consuming certain foods and drinks.

The benefits of persimmon leaf are ;

Weight Loss Uses
Persimmon leaf may be an effective weight loss remedy, as it stops fat from entering the bottom, according to the Wild Crops website. The website asserts that persimmon leaves were ingested by the Native Americans, and research has proven that the leaves can lower lipid levels. The persimmon leaf’s ability to reduce lipid levels is due to its high fiber content.

Allergy Relief
Persimmon leaf tea has long been an effective herbal remedy in Japan, and researchers in the country have discovered that the leaves contain astragalin, which stops histamine release and can be beneficial to people with pollen allergies. According to “Chinese Medicated Diet,” a textbook published by the Shanghai College of Traditional Chinese Medicine, persimmon leaves can also cure irritability and rapid pulse, which can be allergy symptoms.

Metabolism Regulation
Persimmon leaf tea can regulate the body’s metabolism, according to the Natural Persimmon website. The site asserts that this is due to the rutin in the tea, which makes the blood’s choline tube more supple, increases blood flow and regulates blood pressure. When the body’s metabolism is raised, this can make weight loss efforts more effective, according to the Local Harvest website.

Anti-Cancer Uses
Longevity Magazine, a publication in Japan, asserts that persimmon leaf tea can prevent melanoma, or skin cancer. The tea protects the body from carcinogens, and is safe for individuals over the age of 12 to drink without any known side effects, according to T & H USA Group, Inc.

Nutritional Uses
Persimmon leaf tea has several nutritional benefits. According to the Natural Persimmon website, the tea contains up to 10 times the vitamin C, choline and essential amino acids of many fruits and vegetables. The Ottogi Research Center in Kyonngi-do in The Republic of Korea also states that persimmon leaf tea helps to relieve constipation and atherosclerosis.

How to make a Hot Tea
Start with fresh, cold water. (The better the water quality, the better the tea will taste.) Place a tea bag in your favorite cup or mug. Bring water to a rolling boil and immediately pour over your tea bag. Steep for a good 3 to 5 minutes. (Great taste can't be rushed—it really does take the full time to release the tea's entire flavor.) Remove the tea bag, relax and enjoy! (Serve it “clear” or try it with milk and sugar.)

Here's a coldwater method for clear, cloudless iced tea:
Fill a quart pitcher or container with cold tap water. Cover. Let stand at room temperature or in the refrigerator. Add 4 to 6 tea bags or 1 Family Size tea bag (remove tags). After at least 6 hours (or overnight), remove tea bags, squeezing against side of container. When ready to serve, pour into ice-filled glasses. Makes 1 quart. Recipe may be doubled.
