Green Tea Drinkers More Agile And Independent As They Age...
Dear Reader,
Good news for green tea drinkers! A Japanese study involving thousands of subjects has found that regular drinkers of green tea appear to show less age related disability than those who don't enjoy the beverage. The work, appearing in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, examined the question - do green tea drinkers have a reduced risk of becoming frail and disabled as the years pass?
Researcher Yasutake Tomata from Tohoku University Graduate School of Medicine and his team studied nearly 14,000 Japanese adults, all 65 or older, and followed them for a period of three years. Information on green tea consumption as well as other lifestyle factors was collected using a questionnaire.
Researchers found that those who drank the most green tea were the least likely to be identified with "functional disability" - problems with completing daily activities or basic functions like bathing or getting dressed.
Almost 13% of the adults who drank less than a cup of green tea a day became functionally disabled - compared to about 7% who drank at least five cups of green tea each day. Of course the study isn't proof that green tea on its own keeps adults spry and able as they get older.
Green tea drinkers also had healthier diets (more fish veggies and fruit), as well as higher levels of education, lower rates of smoking, fewer strokes and heart attacks as well as better mental sharpness. They were also more socially active and thus had more family and friends as support systems in their lives.
Even after all other risk factors for disability were accounted for; green tea was still associated with a lower risk of age related disability. Subjects who had at least 5 cups a day were a third less likely to have disabilities than those who took in less than a cup a day. Those who drank 3 to 4 cups of green tea a day had a 25% lower risk of age related disability.
The Chinese have known about the medicinal benefits of green tea for thousands of years. Experts now know that green tea has powerful antioxidants (particularly epigallocatechin gallate, or EGCG for short) that help to hold off cell damage that can lead to disease.

The delicious tasting drink has been studied by experts for its affect on cholesterol
numbers and the risks of certain cancers, but thus far, results on green tea's
effectiveness have been mixed. And while the researchers on this study cannot
explain how green tea might offer a buffer against disability, they do cite a
recent study that found green tea extracts appeared to build leg muscle strength
in older women.
And unlike the black and oolong tea varieties, green tea leaves are steamed,
not fermented, which keeps the EGCG from being oxidized and turned into compounds
that aren't nearly as effective.
Small amounts of green tea, and its extracts, are considered safe for most people,
though they do have caffeine and a small amount of vitamin K. This means that
the beverage could interfere with medications that keep blood from clotting.
Talk with your own doctor before adding this beverage to your diet - once you
get the okay enjoy this delicious drink hot, warm, iced or mixed with other drinks.
To your good health,
