Vitamin in tea

There are 13 essential types of vitamins: A, C, D, E, K and B vitamins (Thiamine (B1), Riboflavin (B2), Niacin (B3), Pantothenic acid (B5), Biotin (B7) Folate (B9), Pyroxidine (B6), Cobalamin (B12).

The following vitamins are naturally found in tea:
Vitamin C
*Maintenance of healthy skin and mucus membrane (collagen formation)
*Antioxidant

Thiamine (vitamin B1) and pantothenic acid
*Necessary for the release of energy from fat and carbohydrate

Vitamin B2
*Maintenance of healthy skin and mucus membrane

Vitamin B6
*Involved in metabolism proteins

Folic acid
*Prevention of fetal neural tube defects (NTD)
*Prevention of arterial sclerosis
*Plays a role in cell division

β-carotene
*Maintenance of nighttime vision
*Precursor to vitamin A, has antioxidant and protective properties.

Vitamin E
*Antioxidant

Vitamin A, Vitamin C, and Vitamin E are greatly reduced during the process especially at the fermentation process. Longer it takes the process, the vitamins remaining in the tea become smaller.

Green tea leaves contain vitamin C. However, the benefits and active ingredients of vitamin C are completely lost when it is brewed in water above 30°C.
