In
today's world we are experiencing more cases of cancer and other immune
diseases than ever before. This is due primarily to the increased pollution
that we pump into our atmosphere at increasingly alarming levels, and eating
over processed, ill-prepared, contaminated food products. However, it is not
all bad news. All the time scientists are discovering that some of the foods
we eat and drink have health benefits that can help to combat, or even
reverse, the effects of modern life.
One of these 'miracle foods' is Green tea, or to be more precise, a series of components of the tea known collectively as 'catechin'. While green tea is not a new invention, it is only now, thanks to better equipment and understanding, that scientists are able to prove the benefits of these ancient products. For instance, research in the West and Asia suggests that taking green tea could reduce the risk of certain types of cancer by up to 60%; Oesophageal cancer being the most effectively treated during their research. At the University of Purdue, researchers concluded that the compound, catechin, actually inhibits the growth of the cancer cells. There is also research indicating that drinking green tea lowers total cholesterol levels, as well as improving the ratio of good (HDL) cholesterol to bad (LDL) cholesterol.
The "special edition"
green tea pads work 24 hours a day by harnessing the benefit of the green
tea without having to ingest it. Based on the theory of reflexology, detox
pads work on the body making it accessible to even the busiest person.
There are many other medical
conditions in which taking green tea can also be beneficial, some of
which are: cancer, rheumatoid arthritis, high cholesterol levels,
cardiovascular disease, infections and it can even help to prevent dental
decay. Green tea is also reputed to be more effective than vitamin C and
vitamin E at protecting cells from damage caused by cancer, heart disease
and other serious illnesses, making it a natural defence against these
killers. Only green tea contains the compounds in high enough quantities to
give these benefits. This is due to the production process. Green tea leaves
are steamed preventing the compound from being oxidised. Other teas are
fermented, effectively destroying the benefits if catechin, and in some cases
completely transforming it into another compound entirely.*
