Camellia sinensis (Common Green Tea)
Known in China as cha, tea has
been used by the Chinese as a potent medicinal herb since 3000
B.C. Common Green Tea or Chinese Tea, besides being a beverage
that is consumed in almost every country in the world, is rich
in fluoride and has been shown to boost the Immune System and
combat skin and stomach cancers.
Green tea is an herb of some importance for those wishing fast
weight loss because it contains, among other phytochemicals,
caffeine, theophyllines and other descrete methylxanthines,
all of which act to stimulate the alkaloids within the beta-3
stimulators of brown adipose tissue and the liver (and increases
the effectiveness of the amines in the Seville Orange - Advantra-Zr)
but will not adversely affect the Central Nervous System, thus
further increasing thermogenesis in the body. Green tea is much
more efficacious and nutritional than black tea as black tea
undergoes fermentation and thus many of the natural therapeutic
benefits are destroyed.
Green Tea is also extremely rich in the flavonoids, exhibiting
a host of antioxidant properties. Recently, one of the bioflavonoids
found in green tea, catechin has been found to protect blood
vessels, alleviate allergic symptoms, and inhibit the action
viruses.
News from Japan's National Cancer Center Research Institute
of Tokyo indicates that Green Teas may be the cheapest and most
practical method for cancer prevention available to the public,
especially protective against liver and digestive system cancer.
When animals were given (-)epigallocatechin gallate (or EGCG,
which is a tannic acid in the green tea) orally in the same
amount as consumed daily by Japanese tea drinkers, it had a
profound effect against liver and digestive system cancer. When
test animals were given a digestive system carcinogen, only
20% developed the disease compared to 63% that developed in
untreated animals. The Japanese state that these effects can
be obtained by drinking only 10 small Chinese style teacups
of green tea daily (or 1-2 American-sized cups), or taking green
tea supplements.
Research on Green Tea at Case Western Reserve University School
of Medicine in Cleveland (Journal of the National Cancer Institute,
Dec 17, 1997) tested EGCG on numerous cancerous human and mouse
cells of the skin, the lymphatic system and the prostate without
affecting the normal cells. Test tube results showed an apoptosis
(death of the cancer cells) in the those cancers. EGCG is present
in the amount of 200 mg in one cup (American size) of brewed
green tea.
Green Tea also appears also effective as an agent against skin
cancer promoted by UV radiation, and fewer lung cancers, as
reported by researchers at Rutgers University (Proceedings of
the American Association for Cancer Research, 32, 1991).Interestingly,
black Tea (which is green tea that has been allowed to ferment)
has only 10% of the protective factors available to that of
Green Tea. Green tea has significantly higher levels of beneficial
chemicals called polyphenols than black tea.
