What are the benefits of taking the Green Tea Energy Shot?
Researchers at the University of Murcia in Spain (UMU) and the John Innes Center (JIC) in Norwich, England have shown that a compound called epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) in green tea might prevent cancer cells from growing by binding to a specific enzyme. “We have shown for the first time that EGCG, which is present in green tea at relatively high concentrations, inhibits the enzyme dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR), which is a recognized, established target for anti-cancer drugs, ” Professor Roger Thorneley, of JIC, told Reuters.
