By now, it’s common knowledge that CHINA GREEN TEA is one of the healthiest drinks available. Green tea goes through minimal processing before it hits your cup, so it retains all of its cancer fighting and health boosting properties.
Scientific studies have shown that green tea can improve health in a long list of ways, including:
Improve blood flow and circulation
Lower cholesterol
Drop high blood pressure
Prevent heart disease like congestive heart failure
Block formation of plaque that causes Alzheimer’s
Boost memory function part of the brain
ORGANO™ Green Tea boosts the health benefits of green tea by adding antioxidant-rich, organic Ganoderma lucidum. That’s already a powerful combination, but recent studies have shown that you can make green tea even healthier — with just one small adjustment.
Add lemon.
Despite contrary belief, that lemon slice isn’t just for decoration and flavor — it can boost the health benefits of green tea. Studies have shown that adding lemon can increase green tea’s benefits by five times!
Green tea is full of catechins, an antioxidant shown to reduce the the risk of chronic diseases like cancer and cardiovascular disorders. It’s the secret component that makes green tea so powerful — in addition to being low calorie and perfectly hydrating. You can get these catechins by drinking green tea, but the majority of them are destroyed by the digestive system before they can be absorbed and used by the body.
Catechins need a certain level of acidity in the environment to survive. The non-acidic environment of the intestines means that as low as only 20% of catechins from green tea actually become absorbed into the body.
Citrus fruit, like lemon, helps to protect the catechins by providing more acid. This improves the chances of the catechins surviving until absorption — as much as five times as much with an 81% to 98% survival rate.
So next time you go to brew that ORGANO™ Green Tea, drop in a slice of lemon or pour in some lemon juice — your body will thank you! Make sure to pass along this info to any potential new customers too — maybe hand out a lemon with samples to get them hooked at your next OG Mixer.
