Grab your favorite tea in the store and you have all of the health benefits, right?  Many bottled teas claim to have ECG, EGC ABC's and any other combination of letters. Many claim to have a long line of antioxidants, but according to the American Chemical Society those levels don't come close to home brewed. Research has found as few as three milligrams of poly-phenols that may help prevent cancer and diabetes in premade teas. To make an antioxidant packed cup of tea; steep the tea for 6-10 minutes. Your brew can provide up to 150 milligrams. That's a major difference.
