The tea mitigates external affective arousal, meaning you will be significantly less distracted by trivial matters and more focused on the task at hand.

Gentle Sedation and Positive Impact on Sleep:
GABA receptors, including those in the hypothalamus, which regulates circadian rhythms and is directly related to sleep, benefit from the presence of GABA. Many sleep aids, both pharmaceutical and herbal, elevate GABA levels, thereby improving sleep quality. GABA is officially recognized today as an effective cytoprotective antihypoxic and antioxidant for various organs and systems. It is attributed with anti-tumor and anti-inflammatory properties, as well as the ability to positively influence the immune system.

Particularly noteworthy is GABA's impact on sleep. Under its influence, mental arousal decreases, brain energy processes activate, tissue respiratory activity improves, and glucose utilization leads to high-quality deep sleep.

Post-Exercise:
GABA stimulates the production of growth hormone in the early stages of deep sleep—a crucial muscle growth hormone. It contributes to reducing fat deposits and stimulates muscle growth after intense physical exertion.

Alleviation of Affective Excitements, Rehab Therapy:
In studies with screening groups, the consumption of Gaba tea after alcohol and psychotropic substance intake demonstrated a positive influence. There was noticeable reduction in withdrawal syndrome and negative effects following the use of psychotropic substances.

- Mood regulation: GABA is associated with certain psychological and neurological disorders, such as depression, bipolar disorder, and some types of schizophrenia.
- Analgesic effect: GABA may exert analgesic effects by reducing pain perception.
- Autoimmune processes: GABA can also influence the immune system and autoimmune processes.

ABOUT TEA:
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
GABA - GABA-aminobutyric acid. It is converted in tea through the final phase of oxygen-free fermentation of tea in baro chambers. The technology was first used in Japan in the 1980s.

When GABA is released into the synaptic circuit, ion channels are activated, resulting in inhibition of the nerve impulse.

Tea Hacks

Kkkkk

Temperature water:

The water temperature for brewing tea depends on the type of tea, as different varieties require specific conditions to bring out optimal flavor characteristics. Here are general recommendations for water temperature for different types of tea:

Green Tea:

  • Water temperature: 70-80°C.
  • Green tea is delicate, and a high temperature can lead to bitterness. Use the lower end of the range for light green teas and higher for more robust ones.

White Tea:

  • Water temperature: 80-85°C.
  • White tea is also quite delicate, and a lower temperature helps preserve its soft and sweet flavor profile.

Oolong and Yellow Tea:

  • Water temperature: 85-90°C.(185-194°F)
  • Oolong and yellow tea often require a slightly higher temperature to reveal their complex aromas.

Black-Red Tea:

  • Water temperature: 90-95°C.
  • Black tea is typically fuller-bodied and spicier, so a higher temperature helps extract its rich flavor qualities.

Pu'erh Tea:

  • Water temperature: 95-100°C.
  • Pu'er, especially shu (cooked) pu'er, benefits from a high temperature to fully develop its flavor.

  • Use only pure water without additives and extraneous odors to experience the true taste of tea. Don't forget to experiment with proportions and brewing times; this will help you find the perfect balance of flavors that suits you.

How to get the maximum flavor from tea extraction?

For the best experience in getting the maximum tea flavor, use a tippod with a spill function, gaiwan or gongfu teapot.

Follow the 5-second rule. Most teas reveal their aroma and flavor within 5 seconds of brewing. Carefully observe the water temperature that is required for the type of tea you are brewing. Use a thermos to keep the water at the same temperature.

1. Rinse - Rinse the tea in the kettle. Do this quickly, getting rid of the tea from the dust. One to three seconds is sufficient.

2. Straining. Now you can make the first brewing of tea. Pour water 1 centimeter higher than the leaf and drain after 5 seconds. taste the tea.

3 strain. Pour water and add another 5 seconds to the spill. 10 seconds - drain. Taste the tea and feel the bouquet and flavor unfold.

4 strain: repeat the same process. 15 seconds. If bitterness and astringency appear, reduce the duration of the pour by 10 seconds and repeat.

In this way you can brew the tea several times and each time the flavor will open up more and more until it subsides.

Experiment with time and find your personal ideal tea strain.
