It is often asked if tea can prevent cancer but the short answer to that question is unfortunately in the negative. However, many studies give weight to the belief that it certainly helps. Lung, prostate, breast, bladder and other cancers have all been the subject of intense research over the past fifty or so years. Compounds commonly found in tea have favorably influenced many if not all of them.

Not only are there many health benefits of green tea, it is also very enjoyable to drink as well. Normally, nothing that is remotely good for us tends to taste so good, but not so with green tea. It's role in promoting health has been much in the news during the last few years and there is ample evidence that, consumed in moderation, it does indeed aid many aspects of functioning. Some green tea medical benefits have been known for over a thousand years.
