Lets have a talk about green tea. Earlier today my roommate Noelle handed me two HUGE green pills and told me to take them . She told me that they were green tea, and that by taking them (along with diet and exercise) I would have a better change of losing weight! WOOT! Well, I wanted to learn a bit more about green tea's health benefits, and here is what I found out for ya:
* Research has shown that green tea may have a key role in;lowering cholesterol, burning fat, preventing diabetes and stroke, and staving off dementia.
*Recent proof shows that green tea may help fight against heart disease and cancer .
*Green tea's antioxidants scavenge for the free radicals that can damage DNA and contribute to cancer and blood clots.
Also, green tea contains as much caffeine as a bottle of pop, but provides many more benefits for your body. Next time you need to choose a beverage...go for the tea :)
