Green Tea Essential Oil
Maybe many people have not know green tea essential oil in detail. Today, I will take you to understand the green tea essential oil from four aspects.
Introduction of Green Tea Essential Oil
The many well-researched health benefits of green tea make it a great beverage to include in your diet for the prevention of cardiovascular diseases, high cholesterol levels, rheumatoid arthritis, infection, tooth decay, and many others. Green tea comes from the same plant from where normal tea is obtained. Scientifically known as Camellia Sinensis, it is the same tea with a different process. Furthermore, green tea leaves are freshly harvested and quickly steamed to prevent fermentation, resulting in a dry stable product. During that steaming process, the leaves’ color is undisturbed allowing the tea to maintain its green color.
Green Tea Essential Oil Effects & Benefits
1. Help Protect Heart Health
Consumption of flavan-3-ols and anthocyanidin antioxidants, the types found in green tea, is beneficial for metabolic and cardiovascular health. It also has more ACE-inhibiting properties than many other plant foods that are commonly consumed, which helps increase the amount of blood your heart pumps and lowers blood pressure. Not only do bioflavonoids have anti-inflammatory capabilities, but they’re also antithrombogenic, antidiabetic, anticancer and neuroprotective compounds.
2. May Help Prevent Alzheimer’s or Memory Loss
The antioxidants flavonoids may also protect the brain from oxidative stress. However, because humans ingest other antioxidants in the form of vitamins and plant polyphenols, it’s likely that a much lower quantity could be effective in protecting memory.
3. Help Protect Brain Cells From Free Radical Damage
Epicatechin seemed to promote blood vessel growth in the brain. Epicatechin may protect brain cells through mechanisms unrelated to its antioxidant ability, as epicatechin is one of the few flavonoids that can cross the blood-brain barrier.
4. May Help Prevent Diabetes or Insulin Resistance
Certain studies indicate that intake of flavan-3-ols and/or anthocyanidins found in green tea may improve glycemic control and help normalize blood sugar levels. Due to its anti-inflammatory properties, green tea is believed to be beneficial for those who are at-risk or diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. Green tea’s catechins, especially EGCG, appear to have anti-obesity and antidiabetic effects.
5. Promote Bone Health
The catechins also increased bone mineralization and weakened the activity of cells that reabsorb bone rather than form it.
6. Prevents Eye Disease and Protects Vision
Consuming more catechins may help protect the eyes from oxidative damage and vision loss.
7. May Reduce Your Appetite
According to some research findings, consuming antioxidants found in green tea, especially catechins and the compound called EGCG, may promote metabolic health and modestly prevent weight gain.
