First, cancer prevention.
1June 998 15 Health News (Reporter Zheng Yuanxiang) Not long ago, Han Chi, an associate researcher in the Toxicology Laboratory of Institute of Nutrition and Food Hygiene, Chinese Academy of Preventive Medicine, and her assistant Xu Yong conducted an anti-cancer experiment of tea on animals. They fed mice five kinds of tea, such as Anxi Tieguanyin, and at the same time, they were fed methyl carbazide glue, a synthetic carcinogen with purity greater than 99.8%. After three months, the incidence of esophageal cancer in rats was 42-67%, and the average number of tumors in rats with cancer was 2.2-3. The incidence of esophageal cancer in rats who did not drink tea was 90%, and the average number of tumors in mice with cancer was 5.2. Five kinds of tea have the best anticancer effect in Anxi Tieguanyin. At the same time, they also conducted another experiment, that is, using sodium nitrite and methyl carrageenan as carcinogenic precursors. The results showed that none of the rats in the tea drinking group developed esophageal cancer, and the incidence rate was 100%. This result proves that tea can completely block the endogenous formation of nitrite nitrogen in the body.
Second, reduce blood fat.
198 1 year, a male professor from Toyomi Miyagawa, Kawamura and a foreign women's university conducted an experiment on the effect of oolong tea on animal fat metabolism, which proved that oolong tea can significantly inhibit the increase of cholesterol and neutral fat in blood. From 65438 to 0983, Fujian Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine observed a group of patients with hypercholesterolemia. When they stopped using all kinds of lipid-lowering drugs, they drank oolong tea twice every morning and evening. After 24 weeks in a row, the blood cholesterol content of patients decreased to varying degrees. Further animal experiments show that oolong tea can prevent and alleviate atherosclerosis of aortic blood lipids. Drinking oolong tea can also reduce blood viscosity, prevent erythrocyte aggregation, improve blood hypercoagulability, increase blood fluidity and improve microcirculation. This is very important for preventing vascular diseases, intravascular thrombosis and traditional Chinese medicine? Quot Blood stasis has positive significance. In addition, in vitro thrombosis test also shows that oolong tea has the effect of inhibiting thrombosis.
Third, anti-aging.
65438-0983 Anti-aging experiments conducted by Fujian Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine showed that the lipid peroxidation in the liver of two groups of animals fed with oolong tea and vitamin E decreased obviously, indicating that oolong tea has the same anti-aging effect as vitamin E. Human experiments also showed that drinking oolong tea can keep the content of vitamin C in blood at a high level and reduce the excretion of vitamin C in urine. The anti-aging effect of vitamin C has long been proved by research. Therefore, drinking oolong tea can enhance the anti-aging ability of human body in many ways. 1985 10 professor Wang Zenong wrote a poem during his inspection in Anxi tea town, which highly summarized the health care efficacy of Anxi oolong tea: Anxi is like the fragrance of Tieguanyin, and six roots prolong life. Huang Jingui, a newly selected famous tea, is a panacea to protect Dan's heart. After serving for thousands of years, it is beautiful, cures all diseases, and is light and light. The wonder of tea is endless, and the flavor of southern Fujian is close to the old friend. Attached:
Drink green tea in autumn
Dry weather in autumn often makes people thirsty. You should drink green tea such as oolong tea and Tieguanyin tea. Green tea is mild in nature, between black tea and green tea, neither too hot nor too cold, suitable for autumn climate. Regular drinking can moisturize the skin and benefit the lungs, promote fluid production and moisten the throat, effectively remove residual heat in the body and restore body fluids, which is of great benefit to autumn health care. Green tea soup is golden in color, fat and even in appearance, tightly curled, green in color, rich in substances and refreshing and sweet in taste.
Chrysanthemum Tea
September is the season when chrysanthemums bloom every year, and the sky is crisp. It is also the best season for tea people to start picking chrysanthemums to make chrysanthemum tea.
A small chrysanthemum has led to many well-known poems by poets of past dynasties. Jiao Ran, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, was the grandson of Xie Lingyun in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. He didn't ask politics all his life, but only paid attention to pastoral poems and tea ceremony poems. He is Cha Sheng Lu Yu's closest friend. When drinking tea together, he entertained him with poems: "Jiuri Mountain Zen Temple, Dongli Chrysanthemum is yellow. The laity is full of wine, who can help tea. " Tao Yuanming returned to the field after ten days as an official. He loved chrysanthemums and was indifferent to officialdom. He is free. His "picking chrysanthemums under the east fence and seeing Nanshan leisurely" pinned his feelings for mountains and rivers. The elegance of chrysanthemums, without makeup, has great medicinal value. It seems that these hermits are willing to be indifferent to farming, but they do not forget the excellent quality of caring for the country and the people, which makes people respect.
Chrysanthemum is not only pleasing to the eye, but also can be made into health tea. At the end of each year 10, when chrysanthemums are in full bloom, pick chrysanthemums from Tongxiang County, Huzhou City, Zhejiang Province and Florists Chrysanthemum, the top of Huangshan Mountain, steam-deactivate them, dry them until the water content is below 70%, and crush the petals by hand for later use. There are also chrysanthemums produced in Bozhou, Anhui, Chuju in Chuzhou, Chuanju in Zhongjiang, Sichuan, and Deju in Deqing, Zhejiang, all of which have high efficacy. "Compendium of Materia Medica" recorded in detail the efficacy of chrysanthemum tea: sweet in nature, cold in taste, and effective in dispelling wind and clearing heat, calming the liver and improving eyesight. According to Shennong's Classic of Materia Medica, chrysanthemum tea can "cure dizziness, swelling and pain, drowsiness, dead skin, aversion to rheumatism, joint pain, benefit qi for a long time, be intellectual and hardworking, and prolong life." What I want to mention here is Florists Chrysanthemum, which grows in the fog of Shan Ye, inherits the aura of Huangshan Mountain and absorbs the essence of mountains and rivers in southern Anhui. Its pollution-free nature has high drinking value for modern people.
When soaking chrysanthemum tea, it is best to use a transparent glass, put four or five capsules at a time, and then brew with boiling water. If there are many people drinking, you can use a transparent teapot, put a handful at a time, soak in boiling water for 2-3 minutes, and then pour the tea into everyone's transparent glass. When drinking chrysanthemum tea, you can put a few crystal sugar in the cup to make it sweeter. Chrysanthemum tea has a certain curative effect on dry mouth, intense fire and astringent eyes, or limb pain and numbness caused by pathogenic wind, cold and dampness. Healthy people can also drink boiled water as boiled water. Every time you drink, don't drink it all at once. Save the third cup of tea, add new tea, soak for a while, and then drink. Chrysanthemum tea is widely loved by people for its efficacy. Modern science has been able to extract the effective components from chrysanthemum and make it into drinks such as chrysanthemum crystal and chrysanthemum cola, which is more convenient and saves time for people who like to drink quickly. Chrysanthemum tea is a kind of tea drink suitable for all ages.
