GREEN TEA (ECO) ORGANIC TEA FROM DARJEELING DISTRICT OF INDIA 20 FILTER BAGS

The list of benefits of our highest quality organic green tea goes on and on, but making the tea right is very important. Boiling water should not be poured on the road, it is worth cooling the water to 70-80 degrees and if the quality of the water is at least decent, then it is not worth letting the water boil. Note that green tea is stimulating when steeped for 3-4 minutes and relaxing when steeped for 5-7 minutes.

Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG, in English EpiGalloCathechin-3-Gallate), which is a flavonoid with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, has a health effect. EGCG is contained only in green tea, but not in black tea, where EGCG et al. catechins are destroyed during the fermentation process.

Green tea's protection against cancer is mainly due to the antioxidants it contains (they bind free radicals and neutralize harmful waste products). Among the flavonoids, EGCG is one of the most powerful anti-oxidants, which also activates antioxidant enzymes in the intestines, lungs and liver. The ingredients of green tea also reduce the activity of cancer-causing substances (such as nitrosamines) and strengthen detoxification. Many studies suggest that green tea consumption can reduce ovarian, breast, stomach, intestinal, lung, prostate, etc. the risk of cancers, green tea also increases the effect of drugs used in cancer treatment. (1) Catechin is a substance belonging to the flavonoid group that protects plants from diseases.

German molecular biology professor Erich Wanker claims that amyloid deposition in the brain plays a major role in diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's, and that EGCG in green tea inhibits amyloid deposition and can even dissolve it. Amyloid is a protein that deposits into insoluble structures that damage nerve cells in the brain. In such structures, the protein chains are folded differently than usual. Berlin researchers have proven with laboratory experiments that the EGCG contained in green tea binds itself to an unfolded protein and thereby prevents the protein from forming a different structure than usual. Instead, round formations that are harmless to nerve cells are formed.
