Dr Hala
says...
In traditional Chinese and Indian
medicine, practitioners used
green tea as a stimulant, a
diuretic (to help rid the body of
excess fluid), an astringent (to
control bleeding and help heal
wounds), and to improve heart
health. Other traditional uses of
green tea include treating gas,
regulating body temperature and
blood sugar, promoting digestion,
and improving mental processes.
Studies show that polyphenols
in green tea may help treat
health conditions including -
atherosclerosis, high cholesterol
and even protect against cancer
by inhibiting the growth of the
cancer cells.
