A cup of green tea has powerful healing properties and is a soothing accompaniment to any meal. Here's a look at the magic it can do.
The buzz around this ancient beverage has been doing the rounds for quite a while now. At first sip, green tea definitely cleanses the palate, but it’s true power comes from the antioxidants it contains. In fact, you could call it the King Kong of antioxidants.
Green tea is chock-full of cathechin polyphenols, mainly epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), which is its main fighting ingredient. It’s believed that EGCG prevents cancer by targeting cancerous cells. It also lowers LDL (bad) cholesterol levels, prevents the formation of abnormal blood clots that cause heart attacks or strokes, prevents inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis, builds up the immune system and provides resistance to various infections. Whew! That’s one powerful ingredient.
