Green Tea and Its Many Health Benefits

The Asian community has used different teas and herbal remedies since before the Great wall of China (over 3000 years ago) and green tea has stood out as one of its hallmark and most helpful constituents. Green tea has been used to treat everything from heart attacks, stroke to infections like sepsis (blood infection) and numerous other conditions and maladies. Many studies have been undertaken to research and extract the helpful and beneficial compounds in Green tea that exhibit these medicinal qualities.
Recent scientific studies listed in Chemical & Engineering News (produced by the American Chemical Society) show numerous benefits from the different compounds contained in green tea leaves (polyphenols like EGCG, a powerful antioxidant that inhibits the rapid growth of cancer cells without harming healthy cells).
Green tea has shown and evidenced antibacterial properties and more research in this area is needed. Studies done at Harvard and Cornell Universities on these polyphenols have shown a marked decline in carcinogen activity (up to 60% blocking reduction in oxidation capabilities) and even a biocide or antiseptic quality (hence the current research on green tea polyphenols and tooth and gum disease).
EGCG, due to its abilities to retard cancer with no known side effects is currently being researched to see if higher concentrations and / or more powerful synthetic derivatives could be used as a replacement for the current highly toxic chemotherapy. It is important to note, that although no cancer in these studies was completely cured, duration of survival and quality of life were increased in every circumstance. Green tea polyphenols inhibit and retard cancer growth in every study and form of cancer from liver cancer to uterine and breast cancer.
The polyphenols inhibit the absorption of cholesterol in the bloodstream. There is also research indicating that drinking green tea lowers total cholesterol levels, as well as improving the ratio of good (HDL) cholesterol to bad (LDL) cholesterol. University of Purdue researchers recently concluded that a compound in green tea inhibits the growth of cancer cells.

Many studies have linked green tea to lower risk for breast, pancreatic, colon, esophageal, and lung cancers. Other green tea findings included a study of smokers at the Arizona Cancer Center in Tucson showing that four cups of decaffeinated green tea every day for four months provided some protection against potentially carcinogenic damage to DNA, as measured by the amount of LDL cholesterol in the digestive tract, which actually helps lower the amount of an enzyme in the urine. Study after study shows a vast reduction in onset and risk of various cancers and disease.
Just 4 cups of green tea daily gives the optimal amount of polyphenols for the best results. Basically, to sum this up, green tea has been proven to reduce the risk of cancer and retard the growth of cancer cells in every case and for this reason alone should be incorporated into every diet.

This adds to the body of knowledge that leads scientists to agree that foods high in antioxidants have major health benefits.
Educate your company about the benefits of green tea. Take the opportunity to ward off the silent killer ovarian cancer. Financial success and a good quality of life are affected by a healthy body.
You do not have to be a health professional to offer green tea with a health clipping of information posted to a colorful sheet of paper or a internet search creatively mounted and displayed. Your goal is to promote awareness and get your group brain storming and sharing.
Not a big tea lover try drinking Chai. With lots of milk and cinnamon. Adding lots of milk gives you an additional boost of calcium to ward off osteoporosis. There are many tea options on the market. Green tea or White are what you want to look for as they are higher in antioxidants.
Have fun, promote crafting, make money and stay healthy. Anytime can be tea time. Add a new dimension to your craft party one that promotes health and wealth.

Preventing Cancer with Green Tea?

Some of the studies are valid, some are not; some of the research shows that it cannot completely prevent it, simply reduce our chances by this percentage or that percentage providing we are male or female, black or white, old or young, etc. We are constantly hearing ideas and claims of what we should eat to keep us from getting cancer.
Green tea is considered by many to be a powerful herb, which would be wise to incorporate into your diet. Some say that if green tea was a medicine or drug it would be considered more of a wonder drug than most other cancer drugs. Something that the Asian cultures have known throughout their history, in fact it is quite well known that green tea is known to prevent many forms of cancer such as; Leukemia, Pancreatic cancer, Colon cancer, Lung cancer and Breast cancer. A brand new research now shows that the phytochemicals in green tea are absolutely incredible.

Well few of these things are as good as green tea researchers say, of course the Chinese have been saying it for 10,000 years.
There are presently no known side effects for green tea, yet it appears to be one of the most incredible anti-cancer compounds around. Think on this.
