Green tea will keep you from getting old

This drink is known for reducing the risk of cardiovascular diseases, and thanks to the content of fluorine, it strengthens teeth and prevents caries. However, recent studies have shown that green tea also prevents cell aging. The powerful antioxidants contained in it reduce the so-called oxidative stress, or the process of cell damage as a result of oxidation. Oxidative stress disrupts the protective properties of cells and can lead to the development of diseases such as diabetes mellitus, atherosclerosis, Alzheimer's disease, stroke and cancer. This stress is also one of the components of the aging process. According to researchers, 4 cups of green tea a day can reduce the intensity of oxidative stress by 2 times, thereby slowing down the aging of our body.
