Green tea offers numerous health benefits, including a rich content of polyphenols that reduce inflammation and may help fight cancer.

Its caffeine and L-theanine content can enhance brain function, while its antioxidants might aid in fat loss and improve metabolic rate. Additionally, green tea consumption has been linked to a reduced risk of dementia and certain cancers.

The benefits of green tea for anti-aging include its potential to reduce inflammation, protect against heart disease, liver disease, diabetes, and Alzheimer's, and possibly aid in weight maintenance and cancer prevention.

"Green tea catechins have proved to be very versatile in providing health benefits. This means that there are potential health benefits for everyone in the consumption of green tea. Even moderate amounts of consumption (drinking 1–2 cups of tea per day) may have benefits. It is a very good thing that it is the second most popular beverage worldwide, as the differences in health in a world without green tea might be significant. There is fortunately a wide variety of research being performed using green tea catechins, and we are starting to see many studies performed using human subjects, as it is extremely important that we are able to show the direct benefits to humans. The expansive repertoire of green tea activity in health is important, especially to those people who live where medical assistance is not generally available or affordable." cite Beverages | Free Full-Text | An Update on the Health Benefits of Green Tea (mdpi.com)
