Greeeeeeeeeeeen Tea!

Are you a woman in your 20's or 30's concerned about health and beauty?
Then we've got the product for you. New from Coca Cola Japan,
GREEN TEA COKE!

Coca Cola Plus Catechin - as the news release states. (which is all in Japanese by the way)
No calories, selling nation wide Japan, went on sale on the 8th (monday)...and I'm having a hard time translating. But there is always Rikaichan (lol)

So I am a woman in her 20's, sure I am concerned about health and beauty. Would I try green tea coke. YOU BET YOUR ASS! Would I like it? Saaa, who knows. Will I ever have this chance? Probably not, unless I get my act together and save my money for my trip to Japan. (when ever that will be)

Speaking of tea....Takaaki Goto has written an article "Green tea revolution dated in 1985" It's interesting. ^^

I love Green Tea. Not only does it taste good, but as most of us know by now, green tea has loads of benefits.
  • helps protect you from cancer (EGCG in Green Tea prevents the mutation of cells)
  • Eases some arthritis pain
  • Brings down cholesterol Levels
  • Lowers risk of cariovascular disease
  • Protects you from infection
  • Helps your immune system
  • used to treat multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases
  • Raises metabolism
  • Prevents tooth decay and bad breath
  • Flushes toxins and boosts energy levels

Green tea is also used in a wide range of beauty products. Used as an exfoliant, or moisturizer, it is claimed to reduce signs ageing, such as wrinkles and sunspots. Research states that Green tea is also effective in preventing skin cancer.
