Green Tea is an ancient and potent tonic that is believed to boost the immune system. It is said to possess potent antibacterial, antiviral and anticarcinogenic properties, and the Chinese have used this natural antioxidant for centuries to revitalize and prolong life. Green Tea is also rich in fluoride and may help to reduce tooth decay. Heart- healthy, eye-healthy, brain-healthy Green Tea may also be helpful as a tool in weight management regimens.
What are the health benefits of Green Tea?
Green Tea is said to be a powerful stimulant that increases energy and may be useful in weight loss programs. According to 2010 research from Berlin, Germany's University of Medicine, a daily dose of Green Tea extract, epigallocatechin gallate (EGC), was associated with a 33 percent increase in fat oxidation, while a daily dose of Green Tea's caffeine was linked to a 34.5 percent increase, but when male subjects were given a combination of Green Tea's EGCG and caffeine, fat oxidation increased by almost fifty percent! Three mechanisms have been proposed: EGCG could increase energy metabolism and fatty acid oxidation; inhibit fat cell development (apidogenesis); and/or reduce lipid absorption and increase fat excretion.
Green Tea also has a stimulating effect on the brain that may increase alertness, perhaps because of its caffeine content. In a 2006 study published in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, the research showed that elderly Japanese people who drank more than two cups of Green Tea a day had a fifty percent lower chance of having cognitive impairment than those who consumed less or who consumed other tested beverages.
The high amount of catechins found in Green Tea is thought to be the reason. In 2012, research from Switzerland's University Hospital, Basel, suggests that Green Tea catechin extracts (i.e., polyphenols epigallocatechin gallate [EGCG], epigallocatechin, epicatechin gallate and epicatechin), may enhance brain function and boost working memory. Further 2012 research from China's Third Military Hospital discovered that the Green Tea compound epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) provides benefits to memory and special learning by boosting production of important progenitor neural cells and enhance learning and memory by improving object recognition and spatial memory.
Green Tea is also reported to lower total cholesterol and blood pressure. Green Tea is a highly regarded tonic that is used to boost the immune system. The polyphenols in Green Tea act as powerful antioxidants that have been shown to lower the risk of several types of malignancy by blocking the formation of damaging free-radical compounds, suppressing the activation of carcinogens and detoxifying disease-causing agents. The forms of cancer that appear to be best affected by Green Tea are those of the gastrointestinal tract (stomach, small intestine, pancreas, and colon), lung and estrogen-related (breast, ovarian). The polyphenol called catechin from Green Tea has also been said to effectively inhibit metastasis (uncontrolled spread) of melanoma cells on the skin.
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) recommends Green Tea for headaches (it contains salicylic acid, the natural precursor to synthetic aspirin), body aches, indigestion and depression. In TCM, it is considered an energizing tonic that promotes detoxification, enhances the immune system and prolongs life. Modern research has confirmed many of these health benefits.
