This is the Chinese Green Tea.

Chinese have been drinking tea for almost over 6,000 years.

The purpose of drinking tea is to wash down the fat of the food & also replenish water in the body.

Certain herbal teas do have the effect of healing some illness & "Cancel".

But there is no such things that as many claimed that just single type of green tea can heal the "Cancel".

As mentioned in "I-Medicine Sutra" a person illness is due to the imbalance of "Chi" within the body, therefore healing it would require the various elements & "Chi" to be back to balance!!

So please beware those unfounded claims!!

Why Carotenoid

Carotenoid combo reduces damage to cells, may fight disease

15/03/2005 - Doses of carotenoids easily gained from the diet have a significant effect on reducing oxidative damage, said researchers at a nutrition conference in Paris earlier this month.

Their study is thought to be the first to demonstrate the impact of carotenoids on protecting against oxidative damage, which has been linked to increased potential for disease. It also suggests that a combination of carotenoids, such as is found naturally in the diet, may offer greater benefits than a single carotenoid.

Lead investigator Kyung-Jin Yeum from the Human Nutrition Research Center on Aging at Tufts University in Boston, said that the study was designed to add new information to the evidence that fruit and vegetables can help fight off disease.

Fruit and vegetables contain numerous different chemical compounds making it difficult to assess which of these are acting against disease. However carotenoids are the main source of pigments in fruit and vegetables and have already been linked to decreased risk of cancer and other diseases in which oxidative damage is thought to play a role.

The researchers supplemented 37 healthy, postmenopausal women with either a combination of 4mg each of lycopene, beta-carotene and lutein, 12mg of a single carotenoid or a placebo for eight weeks. The carotenoids were provided by German group BASF, which funded the study. The scientists assessed oxidative damage to lymphocytes (white blood cells) at certain points during the study. â?o

Both the single and mixed carotenoid groups showed significantly increased plasma total carotenoid levels within 15 days of supplementation and significantly decreased damage at day 57," write the researchers in the study abstract.

The mixed carotenoids supplemented group showed significantly decreased DNA damage as early as day 15 (by around 22 per cent) and this further decreased at days 29 and 43. By day 57, it had been reduced by 36 per cent. There were no significant changes in the placebo group. â?o

We wanted to combine three different carotenoids as we know they have a different structure and are located in different positions in the membrane. This means they have different functions so could have a synergistic effect when combined,� Dr Yeum told NutraIngredients.com.

She added that 4mg of lutein can be gained from a quarter of a cup of cooked spinach, while the same dose of beta-carotene can be found in a third of a carrot.

A medium-sized tomato offers 4mg lycopene. â?oWhat is really important is that we have used a physiologic dose. We do not want to use pharmacological levels as increasingly research is showing that high doses of nutrients like vitamin E or beta-carotene can have side effects," she added. "Our findings emphasise the importance of a balanced diet.

If fruit and vegetable intake is low, supplements could be helpful although the study did not intend to promote supplements,� continued Dr Yeum.

The researcher explained that while there is no study showing a direct connection between DNA and disease, several have shown that heart disease and breast cancer patients have higher DNA damage compared to controls.

The study was presented at the Nutrition, Oxygen Biology and Medicine conference at the Societe De Recherches Sur Les Radicaux Libres in Paris from 2-4 March 2005. It will shortly be submitted for publication in a scientific journal.

Fitness freak? Have a cup of tea

Tea have been used by Chinese for daily drinking, throughout the day.

It is all depends on the type of herbs is use to brew tea. Difference Herbs would have difference effect to the body & organ.

In the case of for Remedy or Healing, there is no single herbs are use to the effect of healing the particular illness. In many cases, the tea for healing of illness minimum is 2 to 8 type of selection. I have seen the prescription for Remedy from the Mainland Chinese doctor using about 16-18 types of herbs these day.

A word of caution is that according to the "I-Medicine Sutra", All medicine would have 30% of poison content if it is taken for a long time.. So please beware of that.

Fitness freak? Have a cup of tea
IANS Kolkata, March 31, 2005

The tea industry has long harped on the beverage’s medicinal qualities. In a new campaign aimed at youngsters, it is now being packaged as a panacea for lifestyle disorders.

“Junk food, late nights, lack of exercise. You could do with a few drinks,” say full-page newspaper advertisements published by the tea industry and the state-run Tea Board.

Tea has long been claimed to have medicinal value. But this is perhaps the first time the beverage is being promoted to tackle lifestyle-related complications.

According to the Indian Tea Association (ITA), the antioxidant quality of tea is much higher than several vegetables like spinach, lettuce, cauliflower, garlic and carrot.

“Through recent research it has been discovered that tea is one of the richest source of antioxidants that help our body detoxify harmful free radicals that work against our immunity system,” said an ITA official.

Antioxidants in tea help reduce the risk of heart diseases, stroke and certain types of cancer such as oral, pancreatic and prostrate..

The campaign is aimed at attracting youngsters — many with unhealthy lifestyles, but fitness conscious — to drinking tea.

Teenage Girls Urged to Drink Milk

This report mentioned about the Osteoporosis prevention is by drinking Milk.

Women suffer Osteoporasis in later life. Also due to the body nature & the reproductive cycle that women have to goes through in life.

The other research I found is to replennish Calcium by drinking Bone Soup.

According to the "I-Medicine Sutra", Pig bone have the high calcium & it contents the calcium more near to our human bone characteristic. Also its collagen rich as well.

The other alternatives is drink more Soy Milk. My research found that Natural Cow Milk is still the 2nd best for human.

Nothing can be compare to our mother's milk.

Teenage girls urged to drink milk

Teenage girls are to be encouraged to increase their calcium intake by consuming dairy products - and become more beautiful at the same time.

The Milk Development Council (MDC) is launching a multi-million pound campaign, Naturally Beautiful, with the support of the EC, aiming to focus on the beautifying nutrients found in milk, yoghurt and cheese.

The MDC is hoping to raise awareness amongst teenagers that dairy products are an essential dietary need, and to dispel the myth milk products are fattening.

With an increase in women suffering from osteoporosis in later life, the MDC is targeting young women in an attempt to reverse the trend.

Vicky Hathaway, spokesperson for the MDC said: "Osteoporosis costs the tax payer a staggering 1.7 billion each year and with women making up the majority of sufferers, the campaign will look to tackle the problem at its roots- teenage girls and their mothers."

According to MDC research, almost on in three 11-16 year olds do not know that eating dairy products can prevent brittle bones in later life.

7 out of 10 of their mothers are not aware that deficiency in calcium during adolescence can lead to long-term health problems.

During teenage years, 800mg of calcium a day is needed, which would help combat the onset of osteoporosis in later life.

Celebs whet appetite for latest juice craze
Douglas Dalby

IT has taken Hollywood by storm and it’s coming soon to a supermarket shelf near you.

When it comes to fruit juices, health-obsessed celebrities have been queuing up to endorse the humble pomegranate as the new cranberry. Laurence Fishburne, Cameron Diaz, Calista Flockhart, Kim Cattrall and Heidi Klum, the supermodel, are avid devotees of the new must-have drink.

Fruit juices are no longer marketed on the basis of their thirst-quenching features and pomegranate is no different. The emphasis is on taste and the high level of antioxidants, which help to lower cholesterol levels.

The juice has been on sale in America since 2002 and from 2003 in Britain, where the Pomegreat brand produced by RJA Foods, a start-up company founded by its managing director Adam Pritchard, enjoys a virtual monopoly. Pritchard, 31, hit on the idea for producing pomegranate juice during a trip through India and Pakistan.

His near-exclusive run at the British market is likely to end following the announcement that POM Wonderful, a large American concern, is set to arrive. It is unclear if it will follow Pomegreat to Ireland.

In what will be something of a departure for Robert Roberts, the coffee distributor will be pioneering the new product in stores across Ireland from next month.

“It is an unusual one for us in one way, I suppose,” said Gavin Divilly, Robert Roberts’s marketing manager. “But we felt Pomegreat had so much potential that we were proactive in approaching the company and securing the contract. We are always looking for something new and promising: this is one product that certainly fits the bill.”

RJA Foods sources, produces and imports its pomegranate juice from Iran, which has the machinery to separate the juice from the seeds. One of the world’s oldest fruits, it is believed that the forbidden fruit of Adam and Eve fame was a pomegranate rather than an apple. Pomegreat now sells more than 180,000 litres a month through the British supermarkets.
