The Soothing Way to Ward Off Cancer
Article Abstract:
Studies are showing that green and black tea contain cancer fighting antioxidants. The teas come from the same leaf, Camellia sinensis, but are processed differently. Researchers believe that this tea gets its disease fighting properties from polyphenols, especially one called epigallocatechin gallate, or EGCG. This EGCG neutralizes potentially cell damaging free radicals in the body. Decaffeinated versions of this tea also have these cancer-fighting properties.
