Green tea

Green tea contains components that assist in fat burning.

The tea has a high content of antioxidants known as polyphenols, also called flavonoids.

Studies indicate a link between the consumption of these antioxidants and a reduced risk of heart disease, cancer, stroke, arthritis, cataracts, Alzheimer's, and Parkinson's.

Research further suggests that the antioxidants in green tea are more effective than those found in black tea.
