One of the healthiest teas available is green tea. It is a fact. Recently a researcher did a study where he exposed a bunch of tiny minnows to very radioactive substances. You would have thought they would all get cancer and die. But, instead they survived. The reason? They were living in green tea and not water.

Inundating minnows with x-rays may not sound so great to you. I’m sure most people don’t. However, you have to like the results. I’m going to start drinking gallons of green tea a day or I might bathe in it.

More and more people are realizing the healing and restorative powers of green tea. Because of this there are products containing green tea literally flooding the marketplace. Green tea infusions are even contained in coffee. Plus there are so many other products containing green tea blends that are available for consumption.

However, there is an area that has not quite caught on yet. That is the skin care area. Rumors are going around about it, but nobody seems to actually be doing anything. What consumers do not get is that not only is green tea amazing for your body and inner organs, it also works great for your skin.

Green tea is loaded with anti-oxidants. When you drink it, those anti-oxidants get into your body and do beneficial things like improving your immune system. You will notice an immediate difference in your skin when rubbed on your face.

Anti-oxidants are so good for your face and skin. They keep free radicals away from you. These highly charged molecules are in the air and can potentially cause wrinkles in your skin. Sometimes, they can damage skin cells so much that they actually become cancerous.

However, green tea skin care does more than that. Green tea extracts serve to revitalize your skin. They ease both inflammations and discolorations that can be caused by the environment or by the wrong products. Add a green tea product to your skincare regimen today. Whether it is a lotion, a wrinkle cream, a serum or a spritzer, you will soon be glad that you made green tea a priority in your beauty regimen.

Staying healthy is a big topic for women today. You can tell by all the health-related magazines, TV and radio programs and Web sites that cater to women. I think all that health information has become more commonplace because women are trying to stay healthy in our fast-food society and they need good information to do that. They need answers because healthy eating is not the norm like it used to be. Eating junk foods that deliver flavor but no nutrition has created a world filled with women who weigh more than they want to and are generally less healthy. We’re also not as connected to what is good for our bodies, because accompanying the focus on empty calories has been a general shift away from rigorous everyday physical activity in our jobs. That combination has created the need to find other ways to stay healthy.

Looking at just the surface level, women feel much more attractive if they’re healthy. But when you look deeper, you’ll see there are many other reasons to keep the body in tip-top shape. Women who are healthy are far more able to enjoy all that life has to offer and usually live disease-free much longer. Being healthy simply gives them more quality time in their lives. Those are some pretty good reasons to work on your health. If you need even more incentive, though, consider your friends and family. I’ll bet they’d all say they want you to be healthy and fit so you can stick around for as long as possible!

One method women use to stay healthy is to take nutrition supplements. But do they really work? That’s something everyone has to answer for themselves but there are many studies that say that nutritional supplements are worth the money. One good example of this are the studies spurred by the experience of World War II English Royal Air Force pilots whose night vision improved when they ingested bilberry. Scientists studied the role of bilberries on general eye health and found that there’s a strong connection. In fact, some recent research studies have indicated that bilberries or bilberry supplements can increase visual acuity in people who are healthy, and can also aid those who have eye diseases such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD), glaucoma and cataracts. There are also other substances that studies show have a good effect on eye health care, like vitamin A and lutein. And these are only a few eye-related examples. The Internet is full of documentation that details research studies on every possible substance. Naturally, I can’t say whether all of them have received as positive reports as bilberry. It’s important to do your own research, and make sure you get the latest research results. Don’t forget, supplements can be just as risky as medicines, so you should know what you’re doing before you take them. But don’t let the potential risks stop you from taking something if you feel it will help you. Just be thorough with your research and then follow your instincts.
