10 Foods That Fight Inflammation
Inflammation Fighting Food #9: Green and Black Tea
Green tea is a type of tea made from buds that have not undergone the same oxidation and withering process as black tea. Despite many claims regarding its health benefits, clinical research has not been able to provide definitive evidence for any of these claims. However, it is believed to be beneficial for enhancing mental alertness, reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease, and cancer.
Black tea is tea that has been oxidized more compared to other teas. Both green and black tea is thought to help fight off inflammation as the tea polyphenols have been found to decrease C-reactive protein levels in human clinical research.
