Green Tea
Green tea is tea made solely with the leaves of Camellia sinensis belonging to family
Theaceae . Whether applied topically or consumed as a beverage or dietary supplement, green tea
is a premiere skin protectant. It protects against direct damage to the cell and moderates
inflammation, according to research from the Department of Dermatology, Columbia University,
New York. Studies suggest that the catechins in green tea are some 20 times stronger in their
antioxidant powers than even vitamin E. Men, women and children need to position this super
shield on their side against the ravaging effects of the sun.[
