Green tea is a drink made from the steamed and dried leaves of the Camellia sinesis plant, a shrub native to Asia. Green Tea has been used as a medicine in China for about 4000 years.

There are four primary polyphenols in green tea & they are often collectively known as catechins.

Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) is one of most powerful polyphenol and it has anti-oxidant properties. Antioxidants are involved in the prevention of cellular damage -- the common pathway for cancer, aging, and other diseases. EGCG is 100 more more powerful than vitamin C and 25 times more effective than vitamin E at protecting cells & DNA from damage.

Recent researches and studies have shown the benefits of Green Tea. There have been many on-going researches on EGCG for it's anti-cancer and anti-HIV properties.


Green Tea is good for your health. It has got very powerful antioxidants and some studies claim that it could prevent Alzheimer’s disease (a type of dementia) and infections.

Nice. I just switched from coffee to [http://store.teaamigos.com/buy-organic-and-pure-tea-s/13.htm]Organic and Pure Tea and guess what. My body just react to it immediately, but in a good way. I think it is starting to detoxify my body and getting rid of any harmful substance. Coffee has too much caffeine in it so i switched to tea.
