A Nice Cup of Green Tea

I've always quite liked green tea but now that I've read up on its many health benefits, I like it even more

My Top 10 Reasons for Drinking Green Tea on a Regular Basis



  1. It is a source of antioxidants, which are said to help fight against the ageing process and also said to help inhibit the growth of cancer cells
  2. Is supposed to help burn calories and thus help with weight loss
  3. Has been recognised for its medicinal benefits for over 4,000 years in China to treat a variety of ailments such as headaches and depression
  4. Some research studies have shown that it can help lower cholesterol levels
  5. Is said to have bacteria destroying abilities and may help protect teeth by fighting the bacteria which cause dental plaque
  6. No need to drink it with milk -  a good reason if you are lactose intolerant or just trying to find ways of cutting extra calories from your daily intake
  7. Refreshing and thirst quenching and yet
  8. Still comforting to drink on a cold day
  9. Contains caffeine for that extra boost (although decaffeinated versions are available)
  10. Now stocked by the majority of good cafes and restaurants when even as recently as 5 years ago it was normal to be told "sorry, we don't sell it"
