Green Tea Benefits
Heart, Circulation, Cancer, Liver

Green tea benefits have been known in China, Japan and India for thousands of years. China was the original area of the world that tea was discovered and it was later exported to all of the surrounding countries. Many people including health care professionals from all societies believe it is one of the best nutrients to combat aging and improve health. Like most discoveries tea has its own myth. The tea leaves feel into boiling water over a fire of a Chinese emperor and the rest is history.

Green tea has been and will continue to be all the rage from helping curing heart disease, increasing energy and weight loss. Hardly a day goes by that you cannot see someone advertising green tea supplements or adding it to other products. Even ocean spray sees the value of adding green tea to its cranberry juice.
However in this case it is all well deserved. Tea has a very high proportion of antioxidants and not only that it has three main ones and dozens of sub series to aid in our fight to stop the aging process. Green tea benefits are highly touted by John Weisburger PhD and senior researcher at the Institute for Cancer Prevention. Doctor Weisbuger drinks 10 to 12 cups everyday and as he states, ”I’ve published over 500 papers, including a hell of a lot on tea”. So you see this active 82 year old must know what he is saying and being 82 the ten cups a day shows there may be something to it.

Green tea has different antioxidants than fruits and vegetables. These antioxidants, thearubigins, epicatechins, and catechins are all considered flavonoids. Dr Weisburger states that green tea has eight to ten times the polyphenols found in fruits and vegetables. Further, if you look at the countries who drink tea as a regular beverage they have less heart disease and certain cancers than the rest of us.

Most of the studies on green tea were done on lab animals or in the laboratory so the green tea benefits have not been proven on humans as yet. Some small studies have been completed and other are in progress. However since tea is over 4000 years old and has shown no harmful side affects you can experience the benefits right now. As I am sure you know already tea is much better for you than coffee. High Quality Tea is much better than super market tea.
Green tea has been found to be beneficial to the human body in many different areas. In reviewing research and study papers we have found studies which show the following benefits of tea.

Green tea studies are continuing on every level. Many small villages in both China and Japan have many people in their population who outlive others who do not drink green tea as a staple. Green tea in Japan and China is like red wine to the French. In all three countries those who drink tea or wine have less disease especially heart disease. Green tea benefits are outstanding and this is why we put it in our formulas as an antioxidant and why we offer it as a supplement. Many doctors especially those doing the research on green tea drink up to 12 cups a day.
