Three Major Benefits of Green Tea
by Tom G. Antion
Enjoyment
The sheer enjoyment that goes along with a soothing cup of green tea is perhaps the
simplest benefit. This drink is a favorite because of its light and delicate flavors which
makes it a good complement to breakfasts, lunch and dinner. Green tea is fabulous
with honey even though it can be served with or without sweetners. Green tea is not
longer only being served as a hot beverage. Now it is served as a cold bottled
beverages and a component in smoothies or frappes. Now you can enjoy the flavor
of green tea even on hot summer days.
Energy
Another benefit of green tea in addition to enjoyment is the energy factor. Green tea
has caffeine like coffee. Green tea contains less caffeine, but it is still a great way to
get over the late afternoon hump. The benefit of green tea is actually this small dose
of caffeine since it is just enough to give you a boost but doesn’t cause the jittery,
anxious feeling typically associated with other caffeinated beverages. So consider
pouring a hot cup of water and dipping in a bag of green tea the next time you go to
the coffee machine in your office.
Essential Health Benefits
Two great benefits of green tea are the enjoyment and energy, but the greatest
benefit is the health benefits. These are becoming increasingly more noticeable with
green tea. Antioxidants are abundant in green tea and they help counterbalance free
radicals. As a result of our bodies natural metabolic processes, free radical are
produced which cause damage to our cells. Antioxidants prevent some of this damage
by counterbalancing these free radicals. Follow the urge to grab a cup and enjoy some
green tea no matter which of the three benefits interest you.
