Life Tips: Green Tea and its benefits

Green Tea and its extracts have been studied extensively and for a long time since it has many health benefits, including cancer prevention.

Researchers have new information about how it may help to prevent or slow the growth of breast cancer and prostate cancers.

Most of the beneficial properties of it are thought to be because it has a group of plant chemicals named polyphenols, which include the catechins – known to be strong antioxidants – although exactly how they act to benefit our health remains unclear at present. Still, many companies related to health and supplements are producing green tea extracts due to these widely recognized health benefits.
