Green tea, the mystical light coloured concoction has captured the fancy of the world and has become extremely popular in recent times.

There are several health benefits of green tea. It is rich in catechins polyphenols, particularly epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG). EGCG is a powerful anti-oxidant. It has the power of inhibiting the growth of cancer cells and killing cancer cells without harming healthy tissue. It is also effective in lowering LDL cholesterol levels, and inhibiting the abnormal formation of blood clots.

According to recent study, Green Tea is very good for dieters. Green Tea is also used in many skin preparations, from deodorants to creams. And parents who are always worried about their children’s chocolate consumption can now rejoice. The consumption of green tea has been linked to reduced incidence of tooth decay. The only negative effect of green tea is insomnia, if green tea is taken in large quantities, because it contains caffeine. However, green tea contains less caffeine than coffee.
