Green tea is high in catechin polyphenols, mostly epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG). EGCG is a very powerful anti-oxidant. The antioxidants are responsible for killing the free radicals in the body that alter cells and tamper with DNA. Smoking is responsible for building up free radicals in the body. Regular consumption of green tea also helps kill cancer cells without affecting healthy cells. Drinking green tea also helps clear blood clots in the arteries, which are known to cause heart attack and stroke. Many have wondered why the French have lower cases of heart disease compared to Americans although they eat lot of red meat and are regular smokers.
