Green Tea


Tea is practically the most consumed beverage in the world, aside from water. Since ages ago, green tea has been consumed to promote good health. Here are some of the benefits you can obtain by drinking this type of tea regularly.

Firstly, it promotes longevity. Other than longevity, it also offers protection against various causes of death, especially from cardiovascular diseases. Those who drinks it regularly are less prone to stroke and heart diseases. This explains why Japanese people outlive people in various other countries.

Besides, it also serves as a way to control your weight. Fat-burning properties have been found in green tea. When combined with a healthy diet and regular exercise, green tea effectively promotes weight loss. Incorporating it into your weight loss diet plan greatly improves the overall effectiveness of your plan.

If you are suffering from tooth decay, you should try drinking this kind of tea as a remedy for it. This is because it kills the bacteria in our mouth which causes plaques and bad breathe. Though, this is by no means a replacement for brushing your teeth.

Those who suffer from high cholesterol should include green tea into their daily diet. This is in view that it has been proven, based on researches, to lower the cholesterol in our blood system.

It can be consumed as a natural prevention against diabetes. In addition, it helps control the blood sugar by regulating the contents in our blood. This benefit may be due to the caffeine content in the tea.

The list of benefits goes on. With all these health benefits, we should consider including green tea in our daily diet.
