Traditional Chinese medicine has long-recommended Green Tea for its wide-range of health-promoting properties especially to build up natural resistance.
Since it's naturally-rich in polyphenols antioxidant compounds) and Siberian Ginseng contains potent adaptogenic compounds called eleutherosides, this blend is particularly valuable as an immune enhancer, energy booster, digestive aid and as a general, nutritive health beverage.
Contains: Green Tea, Siberian Ginseng and Orange flavor extract
Green tea contains twice the disease-fighting punch as red wine, according to new research presented at an American Chemical Society meeting in Las Vegas.
Researchers from The University of Kansas measured the antioxidant content of green tea and found that it is 100 times more effective than vitamin C and 25 times better than vitamin E at protecting cells from damage believed linked to cancer, heart disease and other illnesses.
This is the first research to quantify the effectiveness of green tea's disease-fighting capabilities and measure it against other popular antioxidants.

Drink Green Tea For Healthy Teeth And Gums
Recent study suggests that green tea may help reduce periodontal disease...
Green tea has long been a popular beverage in Asian culture, dating back over 4,000 years, steadily gaining popularity in the United States. While ancient Chinese and Japanese medicine believed green tea consumption could cure disease and heal wounds, recent scientific studies are beginning to establish the potential health benefits of drinking green tea, especially in weight loss, heart health, and cancer prevention.
A study recently published in Journal of Periodontology, uncovered yet another benefit of green tea consumption. Researchers found that routine intake of green tea may also help promote healthy teeth and gums. The study analyzed the periodontal health of 940 men, and found that those who regularly drank green tea had superior periodontal health than subjects that consumed less green tea.
The researchers wanted to investigate the impact of green tea consumption on periodontal health,especially considering the escalating emphasis on the connection between periodontal health and overall health. Periodontal disease is a chronic inflammatory disease that affects the gums and bone supporting the teeth, and has been associated with the progression of other diseases such as cardiovascular disease and diabetes.
Male participants aged 49 through 59 were examined on three indicators of periodontal disease: periodontal pocket depth (PD), clinical attachment loss (CAL) of gum tissue, and bleeding on probing (BOP) of the gum tissue. Researchers observed that for every one cup of green tea consumed per day, there was a decrease in all three indicators, signifying a lower instance of periodontal disease in those subjects who regularly drank green tea.
Green tea's ability to help reduce the symptoms of periodontal disease may be due to the presence of the beneficial antioxidant catechin. Previous research has demonstrated this antioxidant's ability to help reduce inflammation in the body, and the key indicators of periodontal disease measured in this study, PD, CAL and BOP, suggest the existence of an inflammatory response to periodontal bacteria in the mouth.
By interfering with the body's inflammatory response to periodontal bacteria, green tea may actually promote periodontal health, and help ward off further disease.
Periodontists believe that maintaining healthy gums is absolutely critical to maintaining a healthy body. That is why it is so important to find simple ways to boost periodontal health, such as regularly drinking green tea, already known to possess a wide range of valuable health-related benefits.

New Study Shows Green Tea Boosts Cell Health
An important study was published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology late last month. The study did not get much media attention, but health and nutrition experts were very impressed by the results.
A total of 33 patients with a history of abnormal cellular growth of the white cells/lymphocytes were treated with varying doses of the Green Tea extract with high levels of epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) a natural constituent of Green Tea.
Previously, researchers noted that EGCG was effective in inhibiting abnormal cellular growth in lab dishes. Doctors from the Mayo Clinic, decided to try this on a group of people suffering with abnormal cellular growth of the white cells.
As noted, the patients participated in this study, received doses of EGCG ranging from 400 mg to 2,000 mg twice a day. Fifteen of these patients showed a 20% or greater reduction in their white cell counts, which lasted for at least two months in eleven of these patients.
The highest dose seemed to be the most effective, with 76% of those patients taking 1,200 mg to 2,000 mg twice a day, showing a biological response compared to only two out of twelve patients (17%) who were taking 400 mg to a 1,000 mg twice a day. The research team indicated that EGCG appeared to help stabilize the early stage of abnormal cellular growth in the white cells.
Another study using 2,000 mg twice a day is currently underway. This result is significant. Although one frequently reads about the potential benefits of various herbs and nutrients being able to have positive effects on abnormal cellular growth, Green Tea's natural constituent EGCG appears to work, although the results are preliminary.
