Reduce the Risk of Cancer by Drinking Green Tea

Weight Loss And Many Other Health Benefits

Today’s Baby Boomers are at the age where health concerns are at an all time high. People are more conscious about health issues and maintaining good health than ever before.

One great substance I have found to help me with depression and very low energy in the winter time is Green Tea. By drinking green tea my energy levels have increased dramatically. When I drink green tea on a regular basis I find I lose weight as a bonus.

In my studies I have found that Green tea has many health benefits one such as: reduces the risk of cancer by keeping the cells healthy. Drinking Green tea every day has antioxidants that help lose weight, reduces stress, stops depression, calms nerves, lowers cholesterol, lowers blood pressure and increases metabolism.

If you find that you do not like the blah flavor of traditional Chinese Green tea you will be happy to know that it comes in many different flavors.

Green Tea has been around for 4000 to 5000 years and was always known for its healing properties. It has just come to light in recent years. Next to water Green Tea is one of the three major non-alcoholic beverages in the world.

Traditional medicine has used Green tea in areas such as India, China, Japan and Thailand to help everything from controlling bleeding and helping heal wounds to regulating body temperature, blood sugar and promoting digestion.

What is the Secret to Green Tea you may ask? Well, Green Tea is charged with active natural ingredients called polyshenols, which are powerful antioxidants. These antioxidants in Green Tea fight your body’s free radicals.

These chemicals are believed to be linked to destroying the cell DNA which leads to cancer. Green tea and extracts, have been used to prevent and treat a variety of cancers, including breast, skin and stomach cancers. The antioxidants in Green Tea help block cancer by keeping the DNA to the cells safe. Green tea is usually brewed and drank as a beverage. Green tea extracts can be taken in capsules and are sometimes used in skin products.

Tooth decay! is even prevented by drinking green tea. Just as its bacteria-destroying abilities can help prevent food poisoning, it can also kill the bacteria that causes dental plaque. Green tea and green tea extracts have also been used for improving mental alertness, aiding in weight loss, lowering cholesterol levels, and protecting skin from sun damage. To my knowledge the only negative side effect reported from drinking green tea is insomnia due to the fact that it contains caffeine and can cause anxiety, irritability, upset stomach, nausea, diarrhea, or frequent urination some people. Coffee contains more caffeine than green tea and as in anything when using moderation and common sense it is safe for most adults.

Liver damage is common in patients with tumor following chemotherapy.
