Here are some more information for Jade Teapot:
Did you know that the green tea caffeine content can be as high as what is found in black teas? Sources vary concerning the actual amount that a cup contains, but according to the Mayo Clinic, green teas contain between 10 and 40mg per cup. The black ones contain about 40.
The things that black teas lack are antioxidants. The heat and humidity used to process the leaves of the camellia sinensis plant, from which these types of teas are derived, turn the leaves black. The process is called fermentation, although it is not actually a fermenting process. Something about the process reduces the antioxidant content.
The leaves that are to be used for green teas are not fermented. There are a number of different variations of the plants. They are grown commercially in China, Japan, Indonesia, Brazil, Sri Lanka and Kashmir.
The highest green tea caffeine content is found in the variety called Jade Dew. Grown in Japan, it is considered the highest grade. When prepared, a Jade Dew infusion is typically 16% caffeine. Many varieties are only 2-4%. If an eight ounce cup of a variety on the low end of the spectrum contained 10mg, then the high end could go up to 80mg.
One of the reasons that estimates vary concerning the green tea caffeine content may be simple for you to understand. Growing conditions affect all of the compounds present in a plant. The longer a plant is allowed to grow, the more nutrients it will absorb from the soil and the more antioxidants it will create for protection. So, not only does the caffeine-content vary, the antioxidant-content varies, as well.
The antioxidants that are found in the camellia sinensis plant are unique. So far, they have only been found in camellia sinensis and some species of the cocoa plant. The antioxidants may explain why many areas of Asia have a lower incidence of heart disease, despite a high incidence of cigarette smoking. On the other hand, they might not.
Claims of health benefits are made for all of the single ingredient supplements that you see on the market. Lately, we are seeing the claims appear on a variety of foods, as well. Are cheerios good for your heart? Is it the green tea caffeine content that provides the health benefits or is it the antioxidants?
Researchers are likely to debate these subjects for years. At one time, cigarette companies claimed that smoking was good for your health and would help you lose weight. Now, we know better.
I believe that the best thing that we can do is to strive to avoid known carcinogens (such as those found in cigarette smoke), eat the highest quality most natural foods (such as organic) and take a multi-nutritional supplement that contains all natural ingredients that our bodies need.
If you are concerned about the green tea caffeine content, the better supplements that contain the extract provide only traces of the stimulant, but lots of the antioxidants. That's my pick. If you have two minutes to spare, please take a look at my website now.

Growing Plants Indoors
Growing plants indoors can be a wonderful way to decorate your living space and bring a little nature indoors. From hard to kill potted plants to a wonderful edible garden, TGM Associates apartment dwellers to know that there are many methods of bringing the beauty and joy of plants to your cozy home.
One easy way to get started is with low maintenance plants that require little light. Hardier houseplants such as the Spider Plant, "lucky" bamboo , and Pothos are easy to grow and do well in a variety of conditions. Also try philodendrons, Aspidistra, the Jade plant, and the money plant.
Plants such as these, as well as other plants in containers and planters, allow you to move them around your space—an advantage that is not available with permanent plantings. You can move your plants where it's sunnier or shadier, depending on the needs of the plant and the season. You can also bring blooming plants to more visible areas of your apartment to show them off. It's up to you what you want to use as your container. Get creative! Try your old Snoopy lunch pail, a desk drawer, a teapot, or a wicker basket. Just make sure that whatever you do choose has holes drilled in the bottom for drainage.
There are still other ways to find space for plants in your apartment, while still providing them with what they need to flourish. A trellis or hanging pole is a great space saver, and, of course, there's not much else that can bring beauty to your home like a window box full of colorful flowers. Many apartment dwellers have patios or balconies that provide the opportunity to grow numerous types of plants.
One of the most rewarding options for the apartment dweller is to create an edible garden. Vegetables such as carrots and lettuce can be grown in containers if placed near a window that lets in at least six hours of sunlight. With a special grow light, you can even grow tomatoes and strawberries. Try various herbs, grouping them according to their soil, water, and sun requirements. Sage, thyme, and oregano need full sun, so can grow on your balcony in a sunny window box. Mint and spearmint need semi-sun, so can be placed accordingly. Use your mint in deserts, drinks, and even as a way to repel ants. However small, growing food in your own garden not only saves you money, but is also good for the environment.
With some simple planning, plants of all kinds bring life and beauty to your home and to your apartment.
