GREEN TEA

2.
The secret of green tea lies in the fact it is rich in catechinpolyphenols, particularly EGCG, epigallocatechin. EGCG is apowerful anti-oxidant and besides inhibiting the growth of cancercells, it also kills cancer cells without harming healthy tissue. Ithas also been effective in lowering LDL cholesterol levels, andinhibiting the abnormal formation of blood clots.GREEN TEA

Green, oolong, and black teas all come from the leaves of theCamellia sinensis plant. The reason green tea is more healthy isdue to the way it is processed. Green tea leaves are steamed,which prevents the EGCG compound from being oxidized. Whereas, black and oolong tea leaves are made from fermented leaves,which results in the EGCG being converted into other compoundsthat are not as effective in health benefits.GREEN TEA
