So we know that GREEN TEA can aid in digestion, promote weight loss, and stimulate the mind. But probably, most of us are not aware of other possible benefits we can get from drinking this revitalizing beverage (from MayoClinic)...
a. Polyphenon E®, a proprietary extract of green tea, has been approved in the United States, for external topical use as a prescription for genital warts caused by human papilloma virus.
b. Research indicates that green tea may benefit arthritis by reducing inflammation and slowing cartilage breakdown.
c. Research has shown caffeine to cause improvements in airflow to the lungs (bronchodilation).
d. There is early suggestive evidence that regular intake of green tea may reduce the risk of heart attack or atherosclerosis (clogged arteries).
e. Preliminary date suggests that a specific formulation of green tea may help prevent cold and flu symptoms.
f. A study conducted in healthy postmenopausal women showed that a morning/evening menopausal formula containing green tea was effective in relieving menopausal symptoms including hot flashes and sleep disturbance.
g. Preliminary research suggests green tea decreases viral load in carriers of the Viral infection (human T-cell lymphocytic virus).
Considering all these benefits, you should probably start your own tea habit right away. Me and my hubby started ours last year (though I've decided to reduce my tea intake since I learned that I was pregnant). Taking after what she sees in her parents, our daughter is obviously very eager to take part in our health routine.
