Does Tea Belong in the Medicine Chest?

 

Numerous papers being presented at the Am. Chem. Soc. support the

health benefits of tea. A study by Dr. J. Bukowski, of Harv. Med.

Sch. concludes that certain molecules in tea can activate gamma

delta T lymphocytes, a part of the immune system that fights

infection and tumors. Dr. Bukowski had subjects who did not

ordinarily consume tea or coffee, drink 5 to 6 cups of black tea or

coffee for either 2 or 4 weeks. They found greater immunity against

bacteria in blood samples taken after tea drinking.

 

H. Mukhtar, of Wisc. U., found that tea inhibited cancer in mice

that had been bred to develop prostrate tumors.

 

Others showed an association between the consumption of green tea

extract and reduced body fat; while Boston researchers found that

drinking tea may reduce the risk of heart attack.
