Legenda spune că acum aproximativ 5000 de ani în China, micul împărat Shen Nung s-a oprit pe parcursul unei călătorii să se odihnească sub un copac. În timp ce își fierbea apă pentru a o bea, o frunză din copacul de deasupra a căzut în oala fierbinte și a colorat apa. După ce s-a răcit, Shen Nung a sorbit din lichid și a simțit cum o stare de pace și calm îi cuprinde corpul.
Like most legends, we will never know what the historical truth is - but regardless, we can only be glad that someone discovered this drink we have come to call tea - which puts us to sleep, energizes, calms, makes an entire planet happy!What are the most popular types of tea?

That you can't make soup without water everyone knows, just as you can't smoke without fire. That soup is better if the water is clean knows every good housewife or householder. And in that of meat, in addition to clean water, you must also boil many bones, with marrow, if possible, to give good taste and robust aroma to the food. Soups are made from all edible vegetables, fruits, bulbs, and tubers, from birds, mammals, and fish of all kinds, and this is known. And if, especially in Transylvania, beer or wine soups are still made - I don't think too many people have heard of the water soup.
"Water soup" (just like that!) is a recipe that appears in our country, written and printed for the first time, in an old cookbook, published by GastroArt publishing house.
"The Little Book of the Chef's Profession – the Cluj Cookbook printed in 1695", represents a translation(...) -
We don't usually tend to take the need to drink enough water too seriously daily. After all, we always have drinking water available - if you get thirsty, you drink, if not, no, right...?
Well, not really.
Or scientists, at least, would disagree with you. Proper hydration helps intestinal transit, keeps body temperature stable, prevents kidney stones, and, in general, keeps your health and mood in the right parameters. Advertisements on TV with "drink a minimum of 2 L of water per day" seem to be in the public interest after all, don't they?
But summer is a slightly more difficult season to stay hydrated. I don't think we need to explain too much why (hint: it's about sweating water ;)). Even if we inform ourselves and realize the need to drink enough water, it is often difficult to simply remember.
We come to your aid with the following few methods to help you consume enough water:(...)

No one can imagine today that the river that crosses Bucharest for a distance of about 22 kilometers used to have clear and healthy water, which was also used for current consumption. At the beginning of the nineteenth century, however, the idyllic image of Dâmboviţa changed, the uncontrolled discharges of dirt turning it into an infected river. The regularization works in the 80s have definitively transformed both its aesthetics and slopes, as well as the bridges that cross it.
Jewelry destroyed by systematization
In the mid-80s Bucharest was almost entirely a construction site. There was no neighborhood where you could not hear the squeak of bulldozer tracks or the roar of pick hammers. In the rush of demolitions and chaotic constructions(...)
