Regular consumption of properly brewed organic tea has been shown to reduce fat oxidation. Studies suggest that green and black tea are equally effective.
The catechins in green tea, and theaflavins and theubigins in black tea, have the ability to inhibit lipid oxidation and the formation of plaque that can lead to heart disease. At the same time, it lowers cholesterol, as regular tea consumption has also been associated with reduced blood clotting and, therefore, reduces the risk of coronary thrombosis.
Tea extracts and tea polyphenols can inhibit platelet aggregation to a certain degree, thereby reducing the risk of thrombosis. Both green and black tea improve endothelial function (vasoconstriction and vasodilation) and blood pressure control, as well as atherosclerosis and the formation of new blood vessels (angiogenesis).
Tea and cancer
Numerous studies have shown that the polyphenols present in green and black tea can react directly with and neutralize chemical carcinogens, thereby reducing the risk of cancer. Tea has also been shown to increase the activity of detoxification enzymes naturally found in the human body.
The anticancer potential of tea is based on the ability of tea flavonoids to interact with active carcinogens and render them inactive. In vitro and in vivo research indicates that tea polyphenols and tea inhibit the initiation and later stages of carcinogen development. Regular consumption of tea, especially fresh tea, decreases tumor growth.

Tea and Diabetes
As we know, in cases of diabetes (Type 1), the pancreas doesn't produce the necessary amount of insulin to regulate blood glucose. In type 2, liver cells and muscle cells can't use the insulin produced to regulate blood glucose.
Some tea plant extracts contain substances that may mimic the action of insulin and help manage type 2 diabetes. The flavonols and myricetin present in green and black tea have been shown to mimic insulin activity.
The enzyme alpha-amylase catalyzes the conversion of starch in food to glucose during the digestive process. Glucose in the digestive tract is readily absorbed into the bloodstream, while starch is not. The polyphenols in tea inhibit alpha-amylase activity and may contribute to lower blood glucose. Research suggests that tea consumption may be very beneficial for diabetics. One tea that helps prevent diabetes is honeybush tea .
Tea and aging
The antioxidants in tea are known for their ability to reduce oxidative stress. It is believed that diseases of aging are the result of free radical attacks, and tea polyphenols inhibit the action of free radicals and may contribute to a better quality of life for older adults, possibly even longevity.
