Green Tea Taste and Goodness

Yesterday I bought a packet of 10 green tea bags from the shop for Rs.32 with the intention of sipping a green cuppa everyday. The packet had a label that said green tea is best had without milk. Therefore I decided to insert the tea bag in boiling water and drank a cup of green tea. The solution had a tinge of green color but the taste was not a big difference from the ordinary black tea that we used to prepare by mixing normal tea powder in hot water. I liked it and I learnt that green tea has umpteen health benefits. Green tea is a powerful source of naturally occurring antioxidants and it is extremely popular in China. Green tea has anti-carcinogenic properties. Drinking green tea regularly will lower the bad blood cholesterol level and improve the good cholesterol content. Green tea is used for the treatment of a variety of diseases like multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases, leukemia, rheumatoid arthritis, etc. Green tea will help in reducing the impact of diseases like obstructive sleep apnea. The antioxidants in green tea help in inhibiting the harmful molecules called free radicals and protect the cells and tissues from damage. Green tea prevents tooth decay and it is also used in beauty products for skincare.
