The Benefits of Green Tea - Improve Your Health!

The different health benefits of green tea are truly incredible. The Chinese have known about these benefits of greentea since the ancient times.

This one in particular is actually shocking:
In 1994, the Journal of the National Cancer Institute has published findings of an study that showed that consuming green tea reduced the risk of esophageal cancer in both Chinese males and females by nearly sixty percent!

So why is Green Tea so powerful?

Brace yourself….

Green Tea is very high in a unique antioxidant known as, "epigallocatechin gallate".

What a mouthful!

But such a long freaky name for an ingredient has to to have something special to it? And indeed it has.

EGCG inhibits the growth of new cancer cells and kills existing cancer cells without harming your normal functioning cells. EGCG also slows down the unnatural formation of blood clots, which have been known to cause thrombosis which is one of the major leading causes of heart attacks and strokes.

The following are a list of benefits of consuming green tea:

1. Can reduce the risk of heart diseases.
2. Can reduce high blood pressure.
3. Reducing the risk of blood clot.
4. Can reduce blood sugar.
5. Preventing osteoporosis.
6. Reducing harmful effects from cigarettes smoking.

An Overview of Green Tea!

Today, most folks are familiar with black tea (your normal tea like earl grey). In 91% of the cases, this type of tea can be bought in a supermarket. Green tea is completely different. Green tea originates deep from within China & Japan. Green tea is also very popular in other Asian countries including Hong Kong, Taiwan, Morocco and the whole of the Middle East.

But generally we are mostly concerned with only 2 types of the green teas.
They are Chinese and Japanese green teas.

In this post I’m going to discuss Chinese Green teas merely because of their vast variety and because green tea comes from China!

Xi Hu Longjing,the most famous of all green teas, can be found in Zhejiang province in China.
Xi Hu Longjing is China’s most famous tea, and it’s the regarded the best of all Long Jing teas. Xi Hu tea has more than a 1000 years of recorded history. This is also by far the world’s most protected tea. Only leaves picked within a 168 square kilometer radius of the Xi Hu area can be considered as true Xi Hu Long Jing Tea.

For about 50 grams of genuine Xi Hu Long Jing Green Tea you will pay around $40. Pretty darn expensive hey?
