Green Tea for Better Health

The preventive prescription is in—recent research from the Moffit Cancer Center in Florida concludes that drinking three cups of the world’s most popular beverage each day may ward off cancer. In fact, if you’re a woman under the age of 50, investing in a quality kettle could cut your risk of breast cancer by up to 37 percent. The article, published in Cancer Epidemiology Biomarkers and Prevention, gives a gold star to green tea and its potent polyphenols. Past studies have also shown an association between tea consumption and lowered risk of heart attack and stroke, decreased cholesterol levels, and improved blood pressure. So keep on simmering, seeping, and sipping your way to better health!
