Green Tea General Information
The Camellias sinensis plant is a large, attractive, evergreen shrubs best known for their beautiful flowers. There are more than 2,300 named varieties of this shrub. Camellia sinensis is the variety, which is the source of green, black, and Oolong tea. Even though all three teas are made from the leaves of the same plant species, their chemical content and flavors are very different due to different fermentation processes. Green tea leaves are dried in hot air, and then pan-fried to stop the oxidation (fermentation) process, while the leaves of Oolong tea are dried in full sunlight, and are partially oxidized. Black teas leaves are fermented in cool, humid rooms. The Green Tea plant has been used as a beverage for thousands of years, yet the documentation of the potential health benefits of this tea have been recorded only within the last couple of decades. Polyphenols, the substances known to possess strong antioxidant, anticarcinogenic, antitumerigenic, and even antibiotic properties, are abundant in Green Tea.

Green Tea Uses & Scientific Evidence For
There is a growing body of evidence that suggests that regular consumption of Green Tea can reduce the incidence of a variety of cancers, including colon, pancreatic, and stomach cancers, and in fact, many people drink Green tea daily for cancer prevention. It is possible that this tea might also help prevent heart disease. Studies have shown that continued use of Green Tea lowers enzyme levels, which could significantly reduce or prevent liver disease, and reduce the negative effects of hepatitis and alcoholic liver disease. Preliminary studies also show that Green Tea might protect the skin from sun damage and sunburn. This tea also can lower cholesterol, boost your immune system, fight off tooth decay, regulate blood sugar levels, combat mental fatigue, and may help delay the onset of artherosclerosis.
Green Tea is already known for its cardiovascular health benefits and anticarcinogenic properties could also help ease the inflammation and pain associated with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The Washington Post in April of 2007 had this to say about Green Tea: Researchers cultured the cells of RA and exposed them to epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), just one part of Green Tea. Then the cells were stimulated with a protein, which is known to play a role in causing joint degradation in rheumatoid arthritis. The protein is called cytokine interleukin-1 beta or IL-1B. Dr Ahmed explained that, “IL-1B is a major player in mediation cartilage degradation.” In this recent study EGCG was exposed to two damaging cells in RA and found that EGCG “blocked them significantly.”

Green Tea Dosage Information
For cancer prevention, studies suggest drinking 3 cups of Green Tea daily. If you cannot drink 3 cups a day, you can take a Green Tea extract in pill or capsule form. A standard dosage is 100 to 150 mg 3 times a day of Green Tea extract standardized to contain 80% total polyphenols and 50% epigallocatechin gallate. It is not certain if the extract is as effective as the Green Tea.

Green Tea Safety & Interaction Information
Green Tea has long since been a beverage and is considered safe; however, it does contain caffeine, albeit an amount smaller than coffee or black tea, but nonetheless, it can cause insomnia, nervousness, and other symptoms of excess caffeine intake. This tea should not be given to infants or young children. If you are taking MAO inhibitors or Coumadin (warfarin), you could experience problems, so it is suggested you consult with your physician before using this tea, or do not use it at all.
