How To Choose The Right Tea for You

Jesse Jacobs of Samovar Tea Lounge in San Francisco talks about how to choose a tea that's right for you. Factors he includes are:
-How do you want to feel?
-What are you eating? (Food and Tea Pairings)
-What category of tea do you want? (White, green, oolong, black, pu-erh, or an herbal tisane?)
-What flavor profile do you like?
All teas discussed in the video can be found at www.samovarlife.com or in our three San Francisco Tea Lounge locations.

Personally, I avoid tea for at least an hour before or after meals as, although tea - specifically Puer tea - is good for digestion, it also is meant to rob you of a fair chunk of nutrition if drunk just before/after or during food. However, is there a way to reduce teas capacity to do this? Eg adding milk to tea to reduce some of its nutrient robbing quality? Also I love black tea with (cows) milk but apparently this reduces the nutrition of the tea itself. I have heard that adding tea to milk (not vice versa) may reduce this - is there any truth to this?
