The Powerful Benefits of Green
Tea
Research is confirming the buzz
that the benefits of green tea
are becoming greater every day.
Green tea contains some of the
most powerful antioxidants
known. Recently, studies have
also concluded that green tea
has enormous benefits for your
immune system as well.
Cholesterol levels and your
entire cardiovascular system are
affected positively by the
addition of green tea to your
diet.
Green tea has been linked to
skin cell rejuvenation.
Compounds found in green tea
called polyphenols help to
eliminate free radicals, thus
safeguarding healthy skin cells.
This information is important in
the ongoing search for new
treatments for skin diseases and
wounds. When used in creams and
lotions, green tea has a
soothing and moisturizing effect
on the skin. Research has shown
that green tea used in skin care
products also protects the skin
from the deadly dangers of UV
rays, naturally.
