A cup of green tea is rich in antioidants which is a miraculous element for health maintenance. Researchers have found that Oolong tea as a traditional Orthodox drink contains catechins, vitamins, tea derivatives, essential oil and fluoride with the beneficial properties of tea, from tumor inhibition to anti-viral protection. Comprehensive studies demonstrate the health benefits associated with drinking tea, like fruit and vegetables.

Today tea has become a well-recognized natural earth supplement and it appears increasingly clear that green tea has a board efficacy in preventing disease.

Tea generally refer to young buds and leaves plucked from tea plants, processed and finally brewed for pleasant consumption. What integrations within green tea make people pleasant and bring health benefits?

Primary, four primary polyphenols are often collectively referred to as Catechins. In general, catechins and other tea tannins are generally known as antioxidants. These powerful antioxidants have been shown in recent studies to fight viruses against the damage at the cellular level leaving the body susceptible to stroke, cancer, heart disease, and many other degenerative diseases.

Green tea specifically has been associated with protection against certain types of cancer including lung, stomach cancer and its precancerous condition, gastritis. Moreover, an observational study in Japan found that the regular consumption of green tea (more than 3 cups a day) might be protective against recurrence of breast cancer in the early stages.
Besides, Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), an antioxidant found in green tea, is at least 100 more times more effective than vitamin C and 25 times more effective than vitamin E at protecting cells and DNA from damage believed to be linked to cancer, heart disease and other serious illnesses. According to the following examination result table, there are various chemical and vitamins components in tea.

The possible protective mechanism of green tea is unclear, although a number of in
vitro and animal studies are attempting to explain this, including a study that found
that the green tea polyphenol (-) -epigallocatechin (EGC) inhibited the DNA replication in leukaemia cells, resulting in the death of these cells.In addition to its potential anticarcinogenic and antioxidant effects, other studies have shown green tea to have anti-inflammatory, antithrombotic, cholesterol lowering , antiviral and antibacterial properties.



How Does Teas Help Health Maintain?
When tea is consumed, antioxidants scour the body for free radicals, and by passing over an electron, neutralize them. These 'free radicals' (cells with only one electron, instead of two) are believed to contribute to the ageing process and possibly causing many serious illnesses. Primarily, the cause of free radical formation is the interaction of oxygen with cells in the bloodstream. This creates havoc in the body by 'stealing’ an electron from a healthy cell. This natural process of free radical formation is exacerbated by UV rays, chemicals, pollution, and smoking. Therefore, this is essential to minimize the damage for maintaining health.
