7 REASONS TO DRINK GREEN TEA
>> Saturday, May 8, 2010
The good news about green tea is hard to ignore! Even a java junky like me, has to admit I have been drinking this subtle brew. This dose of disease fighting, inflamation annihilating antioxidant should be enough incentive to drink it, but there's more.....
1: Cuts risk of cancer with several polyphenols, the antioxidants that make green tea famous seem to help keep cancer cells from growing and preventing your body from producing new ones.
2: Soothes the skin, if you have any extra tea that you didn't drink (shame on you!) soak a cotton ball in it, for a natural antiseptic that relieves itching and swelling. Works on blemishes, sunburns and puffy eyes too.
3: Cut high blood pressure with just 1/2 cup of green tea per day.
4: Protect your memory by drinking 2 cups a day to protect brain from damage caused by free radicals.
5: Keep your arteries young with green tea, it reduces plague build up.
6: Helps in reducing the risk of esophageal cancer.
7: It is thought that green tea helps prevent tooth decay, due to the anti-bacterial effects.
I hope this has been useful information for you, Enjoy!
