Green tea: not just for Chinese restaurants

Ivanhoe’s Medical Breakthroughs reports on the Benefits of Green Tea as reported by two UCLA medical researchers. Regular drinking of green tea has been shown to lower the risk of breast cancer, gastritis, and stomach cancer but Drs. Zuo-Feng Zhang and Mai Nguyen believe further studies will show similar benefits for several other types of cancers. A key differentiation between green and other teas is that green tea is not fermented, a process that destroys the anti-oxidents that are naturally part of all teas.
