Greens First GREEN TEA enhanced with MORINGA VITALITY FORMULA

GREEN TEA BENEFITS:Weight Loss. Green tea increases the metabolism. The polyphenol found in green tea works to intensify levels of fat oxidation and the rate at which your body turns food into calories.14

Heart Disease. Scientists believe green tea works on the lining of blood vessels, helping keep them to stay relaxed and better able to withstand changes in blood pressure. It may also protect against the formation of clots, which are the primary cause of heart attacks.25

Diabetes. Green tea is believed to help regulate glucose levels slowing the rise of blood sugar after eating. This can prevent high insulin spikes which may result in less fat storage. 22, 23, 24

Skincare. Green tea is believed to help with wrinkles and the signs of aging, this is because of their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities. Both animal and human studies have demonstrated that green tea applied topically can reduce sun damage.28, 29

Esophageal, Breast and other Cancer. Green tea has been shown to be supportive of Breast Health. It can reduce the risk of esophageal cancer, but it is also widely thought to kill cancer cells in general without damaging the healthy tissue around them.12

Cholesterol. Green tea helps reduce bad cholesterol (LDL) in the blood which improves the ratio of good cholesterol to bad cholesterol.13

Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. It is said to delay the deterioration caused by Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. Multiple studies show that the catechin compounds in green tea can have various protective effects on neurons in test tubes and animal models, potentially lowering the risk of Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s.15, 16

Tooth Decay. Studies suggest that the chemical antioxidant “catechin” in green tea may inhibit the growth of bacteria and some viruses, like streptococcus mutans, that cause plaque formation and throat infections, bad breath and other dental conditions.17,18, 19, 20, 21

Depression. L-Theanine is an amino acid naturally found in tea leaves. It is this substance that is thought to provide a relaxing and tranquilizing effect and be a great benefit to tea drinkers.26, 27

Antiviral and Antibacterial. Tea catechins are strong antibacterial and antiviral agents which make them effective for treating everything from influenza to cancer. In some studies green tea has been shown to inhibit the spread of many diseases.17

MORINGA BENEFITS:

Vitamins and Minerals. Moringa leaves are an excellent source of many vitamins and minerals. One cup of fresh, chopped leaves(21 grams) contains the following: • Protein: 2 grams• Vitamin B6: 19% of the RDA• Vitamin C: 12% of the RDA• Iron: 11% of the RDA• Riboflavin (B2): 11% of the RDA• Vitamin A (from beta-carotene): 9% of the RDA• Magnesium: 8% of the RDA

A Rich Nutritional Profile. Moringa leaves are loaded with vitamins, minerals, essential amino acids, and more. One hundred grams of dry moringa leaf contains:• 9 times the protein of yogurt• 10 times the vitamin A of carrots• 15 times the potassium of bananas• 17 times the calcium of milk• 12 times the vitamin C of oranges• 25 times the iron of spinach

Rich in Antioxidants. The leaves of the Moringa Oleifera tree have been reported to demonstrate antioxidant activity due to its high amount of polyphenols. Moringa Oleifera extracts of both mature and tender leaves exhibit strong antioxidant activity against free radicals, prevent oxidative damage to major biomolecules, and give significant protection against oxidative damage. High levels of free radicals cause oxidative stress, which may contribute to chronic diseases like heart disease and type 2 diabetes.3,4

Enhanced with Moringa. The Moringa Oleifera tree is one of the most powerful health-enhancing plants and has been touted as “the miracle tree.”Moringa has been used to increase the natural defense of the body to beautify the skin, promote energy, give a feeling of wellness, improve the body's immunity, stabilize sugar, provide nutrients to eyes and brain, act as an antioxidant and to promote good cholesterol and normal functioning of the kidneys and the liver.

MORINGA BENEFITS (continued):

Further, in a study of women taking 1.5 teaspoons of moringa leaf powder daily for three months, blood levels of antioxidants increased significantly.1,2

Anti-Inflammatory. Moringa leaves, pods and seeds have been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties.5

Both animal and human studies have shown that Moringa Oleifera may have similar cholesterol-lowering effects.6

Inhibit Cancer Cell Growth. The entire Moringa Oleifera tree, including its seeds, leaves, bark, and roots contain compounds, like niaziminin, which have been shown to inhibit cancer cell growth.7

Published Study of Green Tea for HPV:Green tea extract, called sinecatechins, is an effective treatment for external genital and anal warts, according to the results of a controlled study.

Genital and anal warts are caused by human papillomavirus (HPV).

Researchers assigned over 500 adults with 30 warts to either sinecatechins ointment or a placebo. In the sinecatechins groups, warts cleared completely in roughly 57 percent of patients, compared to just 34 percent of subjects in the control group.8,9

The catechins in green tea are thought to have anti-inflammatory activity by COX-1 and COX-2 inhibition, leukotriene inhibition, and nitric oxide synthetase activity. Green tea flavonoids might also reduce lipoprotein oxidation, reduce proliferation of vascular smooth muscle and inhibit the release of arachidonic acid from platelets.

It’s more than just drinking the tea that treats the cancerous cells. According to one study published in the European Journal of Cancer Prevention, treatment for cervical dysplasia (precancerous tissue) was studied with the use of EGCG and another extract from green tea, Poly E. What did the treatment include? Taking EGCG extract supplements and applying the EGCG directly into the vagina to reach the cervix. Women receiving the treatment had a 69% positive response rate in comparison with a 10% response rate in untreated controls.

The story doesn’t end there. EGCG has also been found to reduce the viral activity of human papillomavirus (HPV). A recent study found that the EGCG extract both killed the cancer cell growth and helped stop the HPV virus. Why is this important? According to the CDC, virtually all cervical cancer is caused by HPV. Basically, EGCG is helping reduce the cancer and stopping the cause of the cancerous changes.10
