FIGHT
CANCER WITH GREEN TEA
Washington: Green Tea can postpone cancer
and heart disease by five years or more, according to a
study by University of Kansas researchers released recently
at the American Chemical Society. An anti-oxidant in Green
Tea is 100 times more effective than Vitamin C and 25 times
better than Vitamin E at protecting cells and their genetic
material, DNA, from damage believed to be linked to cancer,
heart disease and other potentially life-threatening illnesses,
the study says. - Sapa-AFP
This,
and other exciting new research studies now taking place
all over the world point to Chinese Green Tea as being the
most important plant-based anti-oxidant and anti-carcinogenic
to bring new hope to the world.
LESS
PROCESSING A FACTOR
Green tea is undoubtedly the oldest known form of tea. Its
reputation as a therapeutic drink and as an aid to longevity
goes back to ancient China and the reign of the emperor,
Shen Nung, who swore to its therapeutic and rejuvenatory
powers. Of all China teas, the green variety is the closest
to nature. This is because the leaves undergo less processing
and so retain their green colour. Authentic whole leaf Green
Tea is superior to cut, or macerated leaves. It is panfired
whole by Chinese masters to minimise oxidation and the loss
of valuable volatiles. Unfermented and non-oxidised Green
Tea is exceptionally rich in green leaf polyphenols, which
are now regarded as a major element in the protection against
certain cancers of the respiratory and digestive tracts,
as well as skin, heart, liver disease and strokes. It also
appears to lower blood pressure and cholesterol levels.
Green Tea activates the metabolism of fats and so promotes
speedier results in slimming diets. It improves the circulation
and generally keeps one feeling young and energetic. As
it also contains fluoride, strong healthy teeth are an attractive
spin-off.
PREVENTS
CELL DAMAGE
The high levels of consumption of Green Tea in China and
Japan could be seen as a contributing factor to the low
incidence of cancer in these countries. Green Tea, and preparations
obtained from Green Tea, are already recognised as being
important in protecting the cells from the ravages of free
radicals, the major disease-causing element associated with
cellular damage.
A
TASTE WORTH ACQUIRING
For those who are willing to break away from conventional
European tea and coffee drinking practices in the interest
of healthier and fitter lifestyles Ð Green Tea offers
the ideal health awareness experience. Green Tea is best
enjoyed in quiet calm for full appreciation of its many
benefits. Over many centuries the drinking of Green Tea
has been developed into an art form by connoisseurs in the
Orient who associate its cultured charm with a quiet and
peaceful contemplation of life. Genuine Chinese Green Tea
with its slightly pungent flavour, pale straw colour, and
smoky aroma is best taken without milk and sugar. Although
the first few cups may seem strangely ascetic, in a short
time one's taste buds will begin to appreciate its clean
and freshly invigorating flavour. If sweetening is required
natural honey, lemongrass or peeled and diced ginger are
healthy, compatible alternatives.
ENERGY
DIET
Detoxification experts insist that a plentiful intake of
Green Tea - 6 to 8 cups daily, can help to get the lymphatic
system in good shape. Add to this, lots of raw salads, lightly
steamed vegetables, sprouted seeds and wholegrain cereals,
and the result will be a significant overall health improvement
for many regular users.
PREPARATION
Place an authentic whole leaf Chinese Green Tea bag in a
ceramic tea bowl, mug or cup. Pour in freshly boiled water.
Infuse for 1 to 3 minutes. Serve without milk and sugar.
If sweetening is required, natural honey, lemongrass or
peeled and diced ginger are healthy, compatible alternatives.
Enjoy 6 to 8 cups daily and drink to health, energy, good
looks and sustained well being. Green Tea Bags may be re-used
a second time for a more gentle infusion. |
