Does this Organic Darjeeling Green Tea contain caffeine?
Treatment of Green Tea polyphenols to skin has been shown to have a beneficial effect on aiding with skin inflammation, cell proliferation and chemical tumour promoters. These results have been confirmed in a human model, where topical application of Green Tea polyphenols protected against UV light induced DNA damage. Caffeine has also been found to be an effective antioxidant, scavenging OH radicals, thus producing another mechanism for its anticancer properties.
