Health Benefits of Tea
Tea: It Does the Body Good Studies that support the health benefits of tea drinking keep filling the headlines. There's simply no denying that a daily spot of tea does the body good. Even though researchers can't quite agree on every aspect, I'm sold on the fact that a few cups a day will do its best to protect me from heart disease, a stroke, cancer, and more. What Makes Tea Good for the Body? Tea contains high levels of antioxidants, some of which are called polyphenols, flavonoids, and catechins, and all of which take on the "free radicals" in the body and prevent them from harming the healthy cells on board. In other words, sending in antioxidants is disease prevention in its finest form. Antioxidants are ready and waiting not only in teas but also in several fruits, vegetables, nuts, meats, and even wines (see my health benefits of wine article). If that were not enough, tea also contains flouride which benefits your teeth and has bacteria killing properties which helps control bad breath and the formation of plaque. Are All Teas Equally Good for the Body? This is a question researchers are still squabbling over. Does green tea have more antioxidants than black tea? Should I drink instant tea or loose leaf tea for better health benefits? Is hot tea better than iced tea? And here's what it comes down to:
Here's a short preview of the hundreds of recent studies that boast the health benefits of tea and its antioxidants: Heart Benefits:
Cancer Prevention:
Hypertension-Reducing Benefits:
Immunity-Boosting Benefits
Leukemia-Fighting Benefits:
Alzheimer's-Fighting Benefits:
AIDS-Fighting Benefits:
In Conclusion: So how do you get started in doing your body some good with tea? To get the most health benefits out of your teas, choose high-quality loose leaf teas from your local or online tea shop. Brew it up and enjoy. And of course, don't throw out the idea of enjoying instant or bottled teas when you're on the go. You just might have to drink a little more. Don't wait any longer. Sip, savor, and fight disease today. It's never too late to enjoy the many health benefits of tea!
