The Power of Green Tea!



Modern medicine is constantly evolving and improving, but sometimes the old remedies are actually the best. Green tea has been around for something like 4,000 years and has been used to treat everything from depression to obesity.

There is solid scientific research to support the medicinal use of green tea. It contains salubrious polyphenols, in particular catechins and carotenoids, tocopherols, ascorbic acid (vitamin C), minerals such as chromium, manganese, selenium or zinc and certain phytochemical compounds.

Studies suggest that green tea can reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease, dental cavities, kidney stones, and cancer while also improving bone density and cognitive function. Ingestion of green tea extract increases fat oxidation during moderately intensive exercise. It also improve insulin sensitivity and glucose tolerance in healthy young men. It has also been proven to reduce the risk of esophageal cancer in men and women by nearly sixty percent. Researchers recently concluded that a compound in green tea inhibits the growth of cancer cells.

Green tea is inexpensive, easy item to incorporate into your daily diet and it has a wide range of health benefits. It truly is nature’s own supplement, helping to prevent cancer and to assist weight loss.
