The benefits of drinking green tea

1, anti-aging

It is helpful to delay aging. Tea polyphenols have strong antioxidant and physiological activity, and are free radical scavengers in human body. Studies have proved that 1 mg tea polyphenols is equivalent to 9 micrograms of superoxide dismutase in scavenging excessive free radicals harmful to human body, which is much higher than other similar substances. Tea polyphenols can block lipid peroxidation and remove active enzymes. According to the test results of Tomoyo in Ota, Japan, it is confirmed that the anti-aging effect of tea polyphenols is 18 times stronger than that of vitamin E.

2. Suppress diseases

Tea polyphenols can inhibit cardiovascular diseases and play an important role in human fat metabolism. The human body has cardiovascular diseases such as high cholesterol and triglycerides, such as fat deposition on the inner wall of blood vessels and atherosclerotic plaques formed after vascular smooth muscle cells proliferate. Tea polyphenols, especially catechins ECG and EGC in tea polyphenols and its oxidation products theaflavins, are helpful to inhibit this mottled proliferation, reduce the formation of fibrinogen that enhances coagulation viscosity, make coagulation clear, and thus inhibit atherosclerosis.

3. Antiviral bacteria

Tea polyphenols have strong convergence, obvious inhibition and killing effects on pathogenic bacteria and viruses, and obvious anti-inflammatory and antidiarrheal effects. Many medical units in China use tea preparation to treat acute and chronic dysentery, amebic dysentery and influenza, and the cure rate is about 90%.

4. Beauty and skin care

Tea polyphenols are water-soluble substances, which can remove greasy face and astringe pores, and have the effects of disinfection, sterilization, anti-aging and reducing the damage of ultraviolet rays in the sun to the skin.
