The initial interest in studying the health benefits of green tea came from epidemiological studies showing a lower rate of cancer in regions where green tea was consumed. Published research shows that EGCG is the most potent cancer cell suppressing polyphenol found in green tea. Some noteworthy studies on green tea include:
• When non-Hodgkins lymphoma cells were transplanted into mice, green tea prevented 50% of the tumors from taking hold and significantly inhibited growth of the tumors (Leukemia 2000 Aug;14(8):1477-82).
• Green tea was shown to help protect against the progression of atrophic gastritis in Japanese men (Scand J Gastroenterol 2000 May;35(5)476-81).
• Phenol sulsotransferases are involved in cancer growth, and green tea extract was shown to inhibit this activity in a human colon cancer call line (Biol Pharm Bull 2000 Jun;23(6):695-9).

For those who are sensitive to caffeine or otherwise do not wish to consume it, Green Tea Extract is available in decaffeinated form.
