Green tea is probably the healthiest drink in the world. It has been used as a medicine for thousands of years - not only in China, but throughout Asia. Why? Because this wonderful drink effectively helps fight many ailments: from heart disease, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease to cancer.
What is green tea?
Green tea and the commonly known black tea are made from the same plant: Camellia sinensis. Green tea is leaves that have not been fermented - as is the case with black tea. As a result, green tea contains the maximum amount of antioxidants and polyphenols. These substances provide us with so many health benefits.
Here is a list of the top 5 reasons to drink green tea every day
1. Green tea helps prevent many cancers
According to some studies, polyphenols contained in green tea help kill cancer cells and stop their development. Some studies show that people who drink green tea have a lower risk of developing the following types of cancer: breast cancer, prostate cancer, and colon cancer. However, this research is in its early stages.
2. Green tea may lower the risk of Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease
Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease are the most common neurodegenerative diseases in humans. Some research shows that the catechin compounds found in green tea may have a protective effect and potentially reduce the risk of Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease.
3. Green tea can make your heart healthier
Many risk factors for heart disease - for example high blood pressure and cholesterol levels - can be reduced by drinking at least two cups of green tea a day.
4. Green tea increases fat burning
Green tea increases our metabolism. Consuming the antioxidants, catechins, and polyphenols contained in green tea may increase the level of fat oxidation and the rate at which the body turns food into calories. As a result, green tea prevents weight gain.
5. Green tea can prevent diabetes
Green tea helps regulate glucose levels. This drink slows down the rise in blood sugar after eating. Green tea can also prevent high insulin spikes.
