Organo Gold Green Tea- The health benefits of green tea, and then some

While many have a very fond taste for green tea, myself included, this new green tea has both the EGCG complex you would expect to find in any green tea. However, Organo Gold, its producer, boasts a herbal additive which makes this tea even more revolutionary to drink. 


This herb is known as Ganoderma lucidium, an ancient mushroom used in Chinese medicine for ages, and now infused into an already healthy beverage. This makes the heath benefits of green tea even greater, leaving you feeling both refreshed, relieved, and your body happy.

But what about the taste, and actual proven benefits of the ganoderma mushroom?

First off, there is no taste to worry about! Inside Organo gold's teas and coffee's, the mushroom does not taste as all, and the full flavor of the beverage remains. This is a plus as well, as although the health benefits of green tea are very good, and the additional properties of this mushroom even more so, you don't have to sacrifice taste for health. The taste is just as you would expect it to be, full but not too over bodied, and without a harsh aftertaste. All in all, this is a very good tea for your money, time, and not to mention, your health. 

What about the heath though? we know the heath benefits of green tea, so lets venture into the lucidum for a bit. 


The ganoderma lucidum mushroom has been used in china for thousands of years and has been considered a very valuable herb full of many health benefits. At this time, they linked the mushroom to both supporting longevity and overall immunity when used in oriental medicine. However, these are just a few of the effects it has on the body. It is also said to improve cardiovascular health by increasing oxygenation of the blood, and detoxify the body. These are just some of the few things this herb has to offer, and I assure you, there are not only many benefits but also scientific evidence backing these claims, but I would like to explore that later in a separate article, and I will post a link below for further reading if you are interested. 

So what's the verdict?

This green tea is not only delicious in taste, but also for your health. If you thought that your green tea's health benefits were great, just think about adding ganoderma lucidium to your regular cup of tea and the difference it could make!

I can speak for myself when I say I feel great and rest better than I ever have, and I would highly recommend this brand and this tea to anyone looking for a healthy beverage, or just a tasty one.
