Trends in Tea

Green tea in the spotlight during Breast Cancer Month

During the National Breast Cancer Awareness month scientists have highlighted the health benefits of green tea on the metabolism of overweight breast cancer survivors. A recent study from University of Arizona suggests that drinking decaffeinated green tea helps breast cancer survivors improve metabolic biomarkers. Overweight breast cancer survivors who drank decaffeinated green tea reduced their energy intake leading to some weight loss and improved their good cholesterol levels. Each year 175'000 women are diagnosed with breast cancer in the US and 50'000 die from the disease. Authors of the study note that being overweight after breast cancer treatment may increase a woman's risk for recurrent disease and early onset cardiovascular disease.

3 Cuppas May Prevent Cardiac Problems

Researchers at the University of Western Australia have found that drinking three cups of tea a day can protect against heart attacks and strokes. Their wide-ranging study, which did not find any difference between green and black varieties, suggests that regular tea consumption can reduce the risk of cardiac problems by 11 percent. Flavonoids, a type of antioxidant, are thought to cut the formation of plaque - a combination of fat an cholesterol - in the arteries. Two cups of tea are equivalent to five portions of vegetables in terms of antioxidant delivery.
