In the case of green tea, this is actually true. The Chinese have known of the medicinal benefits of green tea since ancient times and used it to sure anything from headaches to depression!
Green Tea - could it be the cure for many illnesses?
In fact, in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute, green tea has been found to reduce the risk of esophageal cancer in Chinese men and women by almost 60%!
That’s pretty impressive, don’t you think? But it gets better…
