To be honest, I don’t like green tea at all. The reason why I drink it every day is because my friend told me to do so as it helps in reducing weight. And, I did lose a couple of kilos and inches as a result. But, what I didn’t know was that it offers a plethora of other benefits that I was completely unaware of.
Here are some convincing reasons why green tea should be part of your daily life.
1. It helps in weight loss
Consumption of green tea increases metabolism, a rate at which your body burns calories which further helps in reducing abdominal or belly fat.
2. It offers other health benefits as well
Green tea is full of polyphenols which function as powerful antioxidants which protects cells and molecules from damage. These antioxidants work like a shield for your body.
3. It reduces the risk of diabetes
It is believed that green tea also improves insulin sensitivity and reduce blood sugar levels.
4. It reduces the risk of cardiovascular diseases
Green tea improves some of the main risk factors of cardiovascular diseases. It increases the antioxidant capability of blood and protects cholesterol level from increasing which is one of the causes of heart-related problems.
5. It makes you smart by improving brain function
The combination of caffeine and amino acid L-theanine work together to improve the brain function.
6. It prevents tooth decay
The bottom line is that the presence of a number of antioxidants in green tea protects our body. Studies suggest that the chemical antioxidant “catechin” in tea can destroy bacteria and viruses that cause throat infections, dental caries and other dental conditions.
For all the folks out there who are looking for a healthy schedule, this is where you should start from. Cheers!!
