Green tea has been cherished by people in Japan and China for hundreds of years. It is now becoming more widely known and appreciated in the West about the health benefits of Green Tea.
Many people know that Green Tea can be very beneficial to your health but very few understand or realize the reasons why.
Green Tea consists of very powerful antioxidants that help to prevent cancers. Research suggests that drinking Green Tea regularly as part of your everyday diet will dramatically help to reduce the risks of colon, pancreas, rectum, stomach and bladder cancer by up to 60%.
The main antioxidant found in Green Tea is “Epigallocatechin Gallate”. EGCG has 100% bigger antioxidant power than regular vitamin C and is up to 25% more effective at protecting the bodies cells from harmful influences. Not only does EGCG inhibit the growth of new cancer cells, it also helps to eradicate existing cancer cells and leaving healthy cells intact and undamaged.
Green Tea lowers the bad cholesterol (LDL) in our bodies and balances the level of good cholesterol (HDL). This is the reason why Green Tea drinkers can consume a large amount of cholesterol and yet still have an equally balanced cholesterol count. It can also help to stop blood clots from forming which would normally lead to thrombosis. This is of great importance if you take into account that this is one of the primary causes of heart attacks and strokes in the general population.
Green Tea reduces high blood pressure by suppressing angio-tension which causes the blood vessels to constrict, which in turn causes the high blood pressure. Green Tea effectively lowers blood sugar counts and helps to prevent and alleviate the symptoms of type two diabetes.
Green Tea helps to protect the liver against harmful toxins and chemicals in cigarette smoke and alcohol
It is also ideal for having good oral health as it suppresses the accumulation of plaque formation and destroys the bacteria that can cause bad breath in most people.
Green Tea also assists in the prevention of damaging free radicals from ageing you prematurely or early and gives your immune system the needed boost due to the high concentration of polyphenols and flavonoids.
Green Tea has been proven to have important antiviral and antibacterial properties. Research conducted has shown that Green Tea stops the spread of disease and helps to quicken the recovery from cold and flu illness. Green Tea is also useful for combating the seven strains of food poisoning including botulism, staphylococcus and clostridium.
Green tea is effective in stopping dehydration by helping your system to maintain a healthy balance of fluids. It also relieves fatigue and stress which is most often caused by dehydration. It is also very helpful in stimulating the bodies metabolism, which gives calorie burning a huge boost and is commonly used as a key ingredient in a healthy diet and to lose weight faster
