Our ancestors were good in terms of their understanding of
herbs for medicines. One of the examples is the Green Tea. Modern medicine has
started to see and use the benefits of it. The polyphone in tea is what makes
the tea so special. The Green as well as the White tea has the subtype of polyphones
however, the white tea differs in terms of its composition as is not widely
studied as the Green Tea. This is the reason why Green Tea is promoted better.
Green Tea has an inverse relationship with the cholesterol
levels in our body. The best way to stay healthy is by controlling the
cholesterol level in the body. Cholesterol could also be called as fat in the
laymen language. It’s soft, waxy, and fat like thing found in the body cells
and in the blood. High cholesterol level in human body could be very harmful.
Leg pain, block or rupture of the blood arteries, heart attack are some of the
inverse results of high cholesterol in the body. All the cholesterols are not
harmful for the body. There are good and bad cholesterols.
The Good cholesterol known as HDL has the property of
reducing the level of cholesterol level. The bad cholesterol LDL can contribute
to the heart diseases and infers with the blood circulation. It’s been noticed
that intake of Green tea would result in decreasing the level of bad
cholesterol and increases the level of good cholesterol in our body. The same
holds true in case of animals as well. Over and above the medicine, the
practitioners are recommending to include Green Tea as a part of your diet on
the daily basis.
The benefits or drinking Green Tea especially on the
cholesterol levels have been studied extensively. According to one animal
study, intake of Green Tea would restrict the absorption of cholesterol from
the intestine. Further, it would help in the excretion of the cholesterol to
eliminate the chance of accumulation of cholesterol. Green Tea has great
antioxidants called Epicatechins; another component in the Green tea is
responsible for the excretion of acids and salts that contains cholesterol.
If you look at it, just by drinking green tea the mechanism
of cholesterol absorption is controlled. This would ensure that the endless
harmful effects of cholesterol are either reduced or eliminated depending upon
the quantity of Green Tea consumed. It has been experimented and observed that
people who consume Green Tea have lower total cholesterol level than the ones
who are not using the benefits of this ancient herb. As against the artificial
medicines available, this natural herb is an undoubted winner.
