Why Is Green Tea Good for You?

Green tea contains polyphenols and most notably epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG). This is one of the most powerful and naturally occurring antioxidants. Antioxidants fight free radicals, which are believed to contribute to the aging process as well as their potentially negative role in causing ailments such as cancer and heart disease. By drinking green tea, benefits from these natural antioxidants become a part of your diet and are purported to improve health. (Information via the University of Maryland Medical Center)
