How Helpful is 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 is very easy. You can find it as a warm drink during winter or drink it very cool as iced tea during summer time. It is also found in the form of powder and even pills. There's nothing easier than taking pills!

One of the main benefits of green tea has been aiding people to lose fat. Some studies have been performed in the last years showing that men and women who drank green tea lost more weight than men and women who had no green tea or took a placebo drink.

There is a benefit that is even more important than losing weight: green tea is good to prevent cancer. This type of tea contains a powerful antioxidant. These anti-oxidants are called catechins and they help eliminating cancer cells without making damage to healthy tissue.

Green tea has been also used a lot in natural based skin products as part of their formula. Green tea revitalizes skin and can also slow down the effects of sun exposure and aging. It also is great to prevent skin cancer by eliminating 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. - 17273
