subject: Green Tea And Prostate Cancer [print this page] Recent reports have told us that some of the components found in green teas should reduce the chance of men getting prostate and other cancers. Scientists carried out in the USA have shown that green teas contain an ingredient that will cut the amounts of a protein that is linked to the onset of prostate cancer.
Taking these types of tea could lower the onset of prostate cancer and halt the growth of tumours.
In the stringent study, men suffering from prostate cancer that was localised to the area were given either six doses of Green tea or water per day over a six week period before undergoing radical prostatectomy.
The scientists then examined the removed tissues for signs of a compound called Epigallocatechin-3-gallate.
Epigallocatechin-3-gallate was only found in the tissue taken from the tea drinkers. Blood tests showed that the tea drinkers had lower amounts of proteins associated to the onset of prostate cancer.
It is thought the compound provides an antioxidant effect, cutting out harmful and free radicals.
With so many types of Green teas to choose from, how can you decide which one to purchase? One proven Green tea product is named Tava Tea. It is made from a rather special mix of three of the most powerful teas available, these are Sencha, Puerh and Wuyi Cliff Oolong.
Blended together these three teas provide fantastic health giving benefits, along with impressive weight loss, and effective detox properties. Available from the manufacturers website, Tava Tea can be bought in boxes of 30 bags along with a lengthy cash back guarantee.
