Green Tea Health Benefits
Green tea protects the liver against harmful toxins, chemicals in
cigarette smoke and alcohol to name examples.
It is ideal for maintaining good oral health as it suppresses the build up of plaque formation and destroys the bacteria that can cause bad breath.
Green Tea also aids the prevention of free radicals from ageing you prematurely and gives your immune system a boost due to the high concentration of polyphenols and flavonoids.
Green tea has been shown to possess antiviral and antibacterial properties. Studies conducted have shown Green tea halts the spread of disease and quickens ones recovery from cold and flu viruses. It also combats seven strains of food poisoning including botulism, staphylococcus and clostridium.
Green tea helps to stop dehydration by helping your body to maintain a healthy balance of fluid; it also relieves stress and fatigue which is often caused by dehydration. It also helps to stimulate the metabolism, give the calorie burning a boost and is commonly used as a key element in a healthy diet.
Black tea comes from the same plant as green tea but it will not give you the exact same benefits as during fermentation, a lot of its medical benefits are lost.
That said, tea in any form is still beneficial to health just that some are more so than others. The best way to preserve the nutrition of tea is to drink it freshly brewed, without sugar or milk and to let the tea brew about 4-5 minutes before consuming it.

Fred, I agree that environmental awareness is growing. However, we still have a long way to go to restore our environment. More trees have to be planted and practices harmful to the environment must be reduced or stopped entirely.
Bush burning has to stop or be reduced. Emissions harmful to the environment must be controlled.
Oil spills have to be dealt with quickly to avoid permanent damage to our environment.

Agreed Bronnamdi, nature benefits us if we take care of it. For too long we human beings have been very careless as regards to how we treat our environment. However, all is not lost. Environmental awareness is growing by the day as we realize the importance of treating our environment with, if you will, "respect"

Just goes to show us that nature is full of "substances/medicines" - Green tea being one of them - that when consumed can help us lead very long healthy lives.
