Next to water, tea is the most commonly consumed beverage in the world. This is a
good news because tea offers important health benefits. Its benefits were first
discovered by the Chinese Emperor Shen Nung who declared that it gave one vigour of
body, contentment of mind and determination of purpose. Today there is ample proof
that tea in its many forms possesses a number of health benefits from supporting the
immune, system to reducing the risk of cancer, to helping prevent tooth decay.
What makes tea such a healthy drink? The star compounds are called catechins. Those
are antioxidants, that help prevent cell damage by harmful molecules called free
radicals.
Tea can be black, green and red and is derived from a warm-weather evergreen tree
known as Camelia Sinensis. The more processing, tea leaves undergo, the darker they
become. Green tea is the least processed tea. It is simply steamed quickly and offers the
maximum healing powers because it isn‟t fermented. It also helps prevent tooth decay
and aids weight loss.
Recent medical studies show that green tea can help kill oral cancer cells, improve brain
scans in cancer patients, and ward off prostate cancer. It may soon become a
mainstream alternative cancer treatment: Green tea consumption doesn't cause the same
side effects (hair loss, immune system deficiencies) as chemotherapy, which kills
healthy cells along with unhealthy cells.
