Second Opinion Health Alert **************************************************** November 22, 2006 **************************************************** This is the most important antioxidant in your body - but you can't take it as a supplement.Everyone has heard of antioxidants. But there's one antioxidant most people have never heard of - yet it's the most powerful antioxidant of all! This antioxidant scavenges free radicals just like the others. But it also does a whole lot more … Keep reading: www.healthyresolve.com/maxplus *****************************************************Popular beverage reduces your risk of invasive cancer by 89%We all have cancer. Men and women alike have cancer cells in their bodies. But most of the time, our immune system keeps them from growing and becoming deadly. When doctors find these cells, they call it intraepithelial neoplasia. There's nothing to worry about with type of cancer. It's when the cancer invades that you get in trouble. The good news is a popular beverage can prevent cancer from becoming invasive 89% of the time. A new study followed 60 men with biopsy proven prostate cancer. All of them had intraepithelial neoplasia. The cancer had yet to invade. The researchers gave each of the participants a green tea supplement or a placebo and followed them for a year. The men taking the green tea took 600 mg daily of green tea catechins (a type of bioflavonoid). What the researchers found was amazing. Only 3.3% of the active treatment group developed cancer compared to 30% of the placebo group. That's an incredible 89% reduction in the number of cases where cancer turned invasive. The researchers indicated the active catechins in green tea were the reason for its success. Green tea has 30-60 mg of these bioflavonoids per serving. To get the level of protection seen by the researchers in this study, you will need up to 10 cups per day. I've often said there is only one beverage you could drink instead of water.. It's green tea. And this study shows why. But it's not the only study that shows green tea's anticancer abilities. Another study demonstrated that green tea chemicals can induce apoptosis (programmed cell death) in leukemia cells. That's the best way to defeat cancer. Get the cells to commit suicide. Since green tea has a nearly 90% reduction in a common invasive cancer, and it causes cell death in another type of cancer, I'm sure it will work wonders in most other cancers as well. Please feel free to drink as much green tea as you like. You can get green tea extracts easily at health food stores and on the Internet. If you don't like the taste of green tea - or prefer water - then these are an excellent way to get green tea's protection.
