Additional Info about Green Tea :
Both green tea and black tea come from the leaves of the plant Camellia sinensis, however the final processing of the leaves is different. The leaves for black tea are fully oxidized while those for green teas are lightly steamed before being dried.
Black teas and green teas both contain similar amount of flavonoids however, they differ in their chemical structure. Green teas contain more of the simple flavonoids called catechins, while the oxidization that the leaves undergo to make black tea converts these simple flavonoids to the more complex varieties called theaflavins and thearubigins.
Although the oxidization process modifies the type of flavonoids present, the total level and their overall antioxidant activity is similar in both teas. Research is now suggesting that antioxidants, such as those found in both green tea and black tea may have a protective role to play in certain health conditions such as heart disease, stroke and some cancers.
Green tea specifically has been associated with protection against certain types of cancers including lung, stomach and its pre-cancerous condition, gastritis. Moreover, an observational study in Japan found that the regular consumption of green tea (more than 3 cups a day) might be protective against the recurrence of breast cancer in the early stages.
The possible protective mechanism of green tea is unclear, although a number of in vitro and animal studies are attempting to explain this, including a study that found that the green tea polyphenol-epigallocatechin (EGC) inhibited the DNA replication in leukemia cells, resulting in the death of these cells.
In addition to its potential anti-carcinogenic and antioxidant effects, other studies have shown green tea to have anti-inflammatory, antithrombotic, cholesterol lowering, antiviral and antibacterial properties.
