Dr. Oz and Green Tea: Go Green and Give Your Body the Benefits of Tea
Dr. Oz had an expert in Internal Medicine on his TV show today. She stated that for many people who have risk factors for different diseases due to their physical characteristics, there are also Lifestyle changes that can reduce the risks when implemented on a daily basis. Dr. Oz and this physician both recommended that people drink Green Tea daily.
Houston…we have a problem!
This physician means well, but she suggested that people go to their grocery store and grab a box of Green Tea off the shelf and drink down five cups a day. We have to address this and set you upon the path to the proper selection of Green Tea. If you don’t listen to what we’re telling you here, it is possible that you will fail to derive the actual health benefits from the Green Tea that you find in some grocery store that is more concerned with the bottom line than the quality of the products they carry in their store.
Not all Green Teas are created equally! This may come as a surprise to you, but tea varies widely. Look at it in a comparable way to looking at wine, chocolate, or beer. The source material and the care that goes into the preparation of the tea makes a world of difference for quality and the contribution to your health and well-being. You MUST drink the best Green Tea to get the value from the source material.
Visit this website and spend some time reading about the variation of the different Teas. You will learn about Green, White, Black, and other Teas that are crafted with the ancient traditions that provide the quality that you are looking for in Tea. You can eventually become a brew master of your Green Tea with a little practice.
I know that Dr. Oz and the physician are making an effort to try to steer you in the right direction, but they are not experts on Green Tea. They read the scientific literature, but they don’t research the traditions. It’s their loss, but you can gain the knowledge that will keep you from making the same mistake they have made when it comes to making the ideal selection of Green Tea. The tea that passes for Green Tea in a grocery store may be OK for doctors, but it’s not good enough for you!
