Breast Cancer Facts For 2009
Earlier whatever claims were being made on green tea and prostate cancer prevention, they were really not very conclusive. There was nothing much that could be confirmed from those studies. However, today things are different. There is information sufficient enough to prove that green tea and prostate cancer prevention go hand in hand.
A recent test was carried on a set of 60 people - half of which were given this medicinal tea and half weren't. After a thorough observation of around 1 year, the results confirmed that while 14 out of the people in the second half (deprived of this tea) were found to develop prostate cancer; the first group had only 1!
The results are shocking as well as encouraging. So, what really is this tea and how does it help prevent an ailment like cancer? Green tea is derived from a plant known as Camellia Sinensis. The leaves of this plant are processed using a steaming process so that the invincible anti-oxidants present in it are properly retained while preparing this tea.
These anti oxidants or Catechins as they are formally called, help in destroying the unwanted cancerous cells. Moreover, they also help in preventing the further growth and development of these self-duplicating cells.
Thus, they help not only in preventing prostate cancer but other cancer types like breast and liver cancer too. The wonders that this herbal tea can do to your health, is not limited to cancer prevention alone. It is extremely useful in reducing the LDL (bad cholesterol) in the body too. This provides a better protection against the second big health issue - cardiovascular diseases.

The next question is how to ensure a regular intake of this miraculous herb?
One obvious way is to consume this tea regularly. However, this has certain downsides. One - to get the real benefits, you will need to consume up to 5-6 cups of this tea daily. This may be practically difficult as well as monotonous too.
Two - it has caffeine in it. Excessive amounts of this substance are known to cause edginess and sleeplessness. It can also cause stains and yellow marks on the teeth. Really not a very good choice to go for.
So, what is the best way here?
Use powerful natural supplements containing this tea. In fact you should really look for the supplements containing this tea along with other like natural ingredients. Like green tea and prostate cancer are closely associated, there are other herbs which have been established to work for preventing various other ailments too.
