Green Tea and it's amazing properties!

Green tea contains anti-bacterial properties, and has also been shown to:

• Zap harmful free radicals.3
• Promote joint comfort and mobility.4
• Support healthy DNA, leaving cells stable and healthy.5
• Boost your exercise capacity by up to 30%.6
• Offer 25 to 100 times the potency of vitamins C and E.7
• Change the way your body reacts to LDL to maintain healthy arteries.8
• Fight against the damaging effects of toxin exposure.9,10
• Guard against cancer.11
• Increase the length of telomeres to reset your biological clock.12
• Prevent bad breath and maintain healthy skin.13


But stay away from green tea drinks that contain sugar, aspartame, or chemical additives. These additives counter the effects of the tea.

Instead, brew your own…

To brew a cup of green tea, bring water to a boil and combine with tea leaves in a teapot. Steep for one to four minutes, depending on the tea you use and the strength you enjoy. Drink it hot or pour it over ice. Try drinking green tea throughout the day for the best effects.

You can’t entirely isolate yourself from infection. But you can do something else right now to start building up your immune defenses.
