The Wonders of Green Tea

By Chalo Balauri

In the last decade, many people have been witness of a rediscovered knowledge about certain plants and herbs. They provide us with many benefits without the need to resort to pharmaceutical products. One of these herbs is green tea, which has been used for centuries.

Integrating green tea into your life can be done in many ways. I started drinking green tea as iced tea without sugar, but then winter came and I started to drink it hot with sugar. On some days if I am not going to drink green tea I take it in the form of pills.

Green tea benefits have been mainly linked to weight loss. There have been some studies over the last decade that confirm its action as a weight loss promoter. Men and women who took green tea lost more weight than people with no green tea or placebo drinks

A much more interesting benefit of green tea is the one relating to cancer prevention. Green tea is rich in antioxidants called catechins. These help eliminating cancer cells, and the best of all is that get rid of cancerous cells without making any damage to healthy tissue.

Green tea has also been used in the formulation of different natural skin care products. Green tea is helpful to improve the complexion of the skin and stop the damages made by the sun exposure and aging. It also helps prevent skin cancer and free radicals.

Why is green tea used only by a group of people? Those of us who have witnessed the benefits of this herb cannot understand it. But maybe it has to do with how modern medicine looks down to inexpensive natural treatments in favor of pharmaceuticals and chemical based products.

Green tea is available through many ways. I get it on my nearest store, and when I can't find it nearby, I get it via online stores and even big online hubs such as Amazon where you can find different vendors. - 17274
