Research has found that green tea has very powerful anti-oxidants and aids in the following medical conditions:
- cancer
- rheumatoid arthritis
- high cholesterol levels
- cardiovascular disease
- infection
- impaired immune function
Other Benefits
New evidence is emerging that green tea can even help dieters. It can even help prevent tooth decay! Just as its bacteria-destroying abilities can help prevent food poisoning, it can also kill the bacteria that cause dental plaque. Meanwhile, skin preparations containing green tea – from deodorants to creams – are starting to appear on the market.
Negative Effect
So far, the only negative side effect reported from drinking green tea is insomnia arising from caffeine. However, green tea contains less caffeine than coffee. There are approximately 30 to 60 mg of caffeine in 6 – 8 oz of tea, compared to over 100 mg in 8 oz of coffee.
