Low In Caffeine
One of the major health benefits of green tea is that it is low in caffeine.You may still choose to buy decaffeinated green tea bags or iced green tea mixes, but green tea contains only a very small amount of caffeine. The caffeine content in green tea is less than half a cup than that of black tea. How caffeine affects our body's system is becoming a real issue in health nowadays. No one really believed that caffeine could be addictive or could cause moods to alter, even as late as in the 1970's. However, it is now an accepted fact that aside from causing a disturbance in our sleeping patterns, caffeine can also be addictive.
The health benefits of green tea includes that you can enjoy a great beverage that helps you get through the day without getting any caffeine buzz that usually keep you up long after your regular sleeping time.A medical study done in England in 2007 shows that getting less than seven hours of sleep out of a 24-hour day increases the possibility of a decrease in our body's immunity to ailments.
Helps in Blood Circulation
Studies suggest that another of the major health benefits of green tea is that it helps keep your blood flowing at just the right rate – not too fast and not too slow. Green tea has also been shown to help reduce blood pressure, lower cholesterol levels and aids with the overall circulatory system health. Arthritis can also greatly affect the circulatory system, leaving limbs numb or tingly.Green tea also helps lower the severity of arthritis because it helps keep your blood moving.
Because of this outcome, people who are on medication for blood thinners are not advised to drink a lot of green tea.This might thin out your blood and put you at risk of losing too much blood with just very minor injuries.
Rich In Antioxidants
One of the long term benefits of green tea is that you are taking in a great source of antioxidants.Antioxidants are very small chemicals that help the body recognize and fight cancer.To date, scientists are still conducting research on the full effects of antioxidants on the body.
