Research Notes on Prostate Cancer and Green Tea
Drinking five to six cups of green tea can reduce a man's risk of developing prostate cancer. Researchers suggest that green tea contains phytochemicals called polyphenols which attack growth factors and proteins of cancer cells and interrupt the process that increase the size of tumors, thus preventing them from spreading to other parts of the body. Another substance found in green tea is called catechin which reduces the level of testosterone, a male hormone which can contribute to prostate cancer.
