All About Green Tea: Green Tea, The Best Functional Food In Reduced Risk and Treatment of Breast Cancer

Kyle J. Norton


Green tea may be next generation of in expensive herbal medicine for reduced risk and treatment of breast cancer, a renowned institute study suggested

Breast cancer (malignant breast neoplasm) is a cancer that starts in the tissues of the breast either from the inner lining of milk ducts (Ductal carcinoma) or the lobules (Lobular carcinoma) that supply the ducts with milk. there is also rare cases that breast cancer starts in other areas of the breast.

Green tea, a precious drink processes numbers of health benefit known to almost everyone in Asia and Western world. However, as yin in nature herbal medicine or food, long term injection of large amounts may obstruct the balance of yin-yang, induced "yin excessive syndrome" or "yang vacuity syndrome" including weaken immunity and painful case of GERD,... according to traditional Chinese medicine's Yin-Yang theory.

According to the joint study lead by the Xinyang Normal UniversityHenan, Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), a bioactive compound in green tea inhibited risk of breast cancer through many mechanisms involving primarily in cell death and survival.

The study also insisted the efficacy of Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) in reduced risk of breast cancer probably due to main function in induced cancer cell cycle arrest in interference of cell division.

In MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell line, Epigallocatechin gallate isolated from green tea induced apoptosis and inhibited tumorigenesis through expression of multiple signaling pathways in breast cancer cells.

Also, EGCG decreased MDA-MB-231 cell viability and significantly downregulated the expression of β-catenin in regulated the coordination of cell–cell adhesion and gene transcription, according to Western blot analysis as patients with breast cancer is found to associate to high levels of β-catenin in breast cancer tissue than in normal tissue.

Dr. Hong OY, the lead author said, "EGCG inhibits the growth of MDA-MB-231 cells through the inactivation of the β-catenin signaling pathway. Based on these promising results, EGCG may be a potential treatment for triple negative breast cancer patients.".

In polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) accumulated in human breast cancer tissue induced the growth of estrogen-sensitive tumors, EGCG inhibited the early onset of breast cancer through modifying estrogenic activity against cell proliferation in a dose-dependent manner.

Furthermore, at dose of at 25 μM, EGCG also exerted antiproliferative and pro-apoptotic action in the activation of ERβ receptor.

The information collected above, green tea, containing rich sources of anti malignant and non malignant tumors phytochemicals, may be considered as a functional food in reduced risk and treatment of breast cancer.

All About Green Tea: Green Tea, the Best Functional Food for Oral Health

Green tea may have a potential effect in promotion of oral health against bacterial induced tooth decay or cavities, some institutes suggested.

Green tea, a precious drink processes numbers of health benefit known to almost everyone in Asia and Western world. However, as yin in nature herbal medicine or food, long term injection of large amounts may obstruct the balance of yin-yang, induced "yin excessive syndrome" or "yang vacuity syndrome" including lack of energy, weaken immunity and painful case of GERD,... according to traditional Chinese medicine's Yin-Yang theory.

According to the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology, Polyphenols including epigallocatechin 3 gallate (EGCG) isolated from green tea ameliorated oral cavity oxidative stress and inflammation, cigarette smoking and cigarettes' deleterious compounds nicotine and acrolein.

Dr. Narotzki B, the lead author of the study said, " Generally, green tea defends healthy cells from malignant transformation and locally has the ability to induce apoptosis in oral cancer cells. All together, there is an increasing interest in the health benefits of green tea in the field of oral health".
In the review of beneficial effects of green tea on oral disease, researchers found that green tea not only reduced the bacterial activity in the oral cavity in expression of the aforementioned oral afflictions but also attenuated risk of oral cancer through the antioxidant activities.

EGCG, in Solobacterium moorei, a volatile sulfide compound (VSC)-producing Gram-positive anaerobic bacterium study, displayed a significant effect in inhibited the growth of S. moorei, with MIC values of 500 and 250 μg/ml resulting in reduced the adherence of S. moorei to oral epithelial cells.

The study also suggested, the efficacy of green tea extract and EGCG protected oral health by inhibited the progression of Solobacterium moorei probably through the ameliorated S. moorei's β-galactosidase activity in production of volatile sulfide compound (VSC) in doses dependent manner.

Green tea with abundant natural compounds may be the next generation of whole food used as therapeutic supplement in promoted oral healthcare.

All About Green Tea: Green tea, the Best Anti Depression Beverage

Kyle J. Norton

The use of plants for healing purposes have been predated long before the existence of modern medicine. Herbal plants have formed a fundamental source for conventional medicine in discovery of single ingredient medication, including aspirin (from willow bark), quinine (from cinchona bark), and morphine (from the opium poppy)......

Green tea is found to consist a psychological effect in patients with depression, a renowned institute study suggested

Depression is a normal response as part of our daily lives such as the loss of s job, the death of a love one, and illness, affecting the way you eat, sleep, and the way you feel about yourself. Over 30 million Americans suffer from depression and the amount is increasing in an alarming rate.

Green tea, a precious drink processes numbers of health benefit known to almost everyone in Asia and Western world. However, as yin in nature herbal medicine or food, long term injection of large amounts may obstruct the balance of yin-yang, induced "yin excessive syndrome" or "yang vacuity syndrome" including weaken immunity and painful case of GERD,... according to traditional Chinese medicine's Yin-Yang theory.

In a cross-sectional study of consumption of green tea and coffee ascertained with a validated dietary questionnaire and the amount of caffeine intake estimated from these beverages, green tea consumption is associated to reduce symptoms of depression, depending to amount of intake.

In comparison to amount intake of participants, the study also found that participants consumed ≥4 cups green tea/d had a 51% significantly lower prevalence odds of having depressive symptoms than those consumed less than 1 cup/d.

Dr. Pham NM, the lead author in the study said, "higher consumption of green tea, coffee and caffeine may confer protection against depression".

In vivo, green tea(GT) and GABA green tea (GGT) also expressed a protective activity of against post-stroke depression (PSD), a common consequence of stroke, according to joint study lead by the Pavia University.

In a mouse model of post-stroke depression, GGT and GT enhance the activity in the modulation of depressive symptoms through decrease oxidative stress, increased antioxidant endogenous defenses, including polyphenol, theanine, glutamine, etc......

Furthermore, in the review of Embase, PubMed, and Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure databases from their inception through August 2014, tea consumption of more than 3 cups a day showed a significant decrease in the risk of depression of 37% (RR = 0.63, 95% CI: 0.55-0.71), in compared to individuals with lower tea consumption and those with higher tea consumption.

Taking together, there is no doubt, green tea may be used as a functional food in reduced symptoms and risk of depression if consumes daily. However, oral administration of large amount daily should be taken with care, particular to people with yin constituent.

Green Tea: Health Benefits of Sencha Tea - Bad Breath

Sencha is a type of decocted Japanese green tea, most popular tea in Japan, made from the dried tea leaves without grinding the tea leaves. It volatile compounds could be used as markers for the overall quality evaluation of all green tea.

Health Benefits of Sencha Tea - Bad Breath
a. In the investigation of green tea extract on bad breath of the study of "The effect of green tea extract on the removal of sulfur-containing oral malodor volatiles in vitro and its potential application in chewing gum" by Zeng QC, Wu AZ, Pika J.[18a], researchers found that Adding 5% baking soda to green tea extract-containing chewing gum was found to buffer saliva pHs to 8.0 during 10 min of chewing. However, severe discoloration was observed and undesirable bitterness was perceived, most likely due to the polymerization of unencapsulated green teapolyphenols. Therefore, encapsulation of greentea extract is recommended for applications at elevated pHs.

b. In the evaluation of the effect of green teaand mouth air of the study of "Effect of greentea on volatile sulfur compounds in mouth air" by Lodhia P, Yaegaki K, Khakbaznejad A, Imai T, Sato T, Tanaka T, Murata T, Kamoda T.[19b], researchers wrote that green tea was very effective in reducing oral malodor temporarily because of its disinfectant and deodorant activities, whereas other foods were not effective.
