(1) Cancer prevention

Cancer has now become one of the biggest threats to human health. Tea contains catechins, especially catechins in green tea, accounting for 15%~20% of tea.

Tea also contains vitamins C and E, which have auxiliary anti-cancer effect.

(2) Radiation protection

Tea contains polyphenols, lipopolysaccharide, vitamin C and carotene, which together can absorb radioactive strontium and excrete it in the form of feces.

This degeneration and proliferation will lead to keratinization of lacrimal gland cells, stop the secretion of tears, and lead to dry eye. . After carotene is converted into vitamin A in human body, rhodopsin is synthesized with protein in retina, which can enhance photoreceptor of retina and prevent night blindness.

These nutrients are necessary for human tissues to maintain normal physiological functions. People are not familiar with manganese, and its physiological function is no less than that of minerals such as iron and zinc. The human body needs to take 3.8 grams of manganese from food every day to meet the needs of metabolism. Vegetarian foods such as wheat bran and spinach contain a lot of manganese, but the absorption rate is low. The absorption rate of manganese in animal liver, kidney and fish food is high, but the content is low. Tea has obvious advantages in supplementing manganese. The manganese content in a cup of strong tea is as high as 1 mg. Drinking 3 cups a day plus other foods is not a problem for the human body to supplement manganese.

Therefore, the anti-aging effect of tea tannin was far better than that of vitamin E.

(16) Regulating thyroid gland

Tea contains iodine, which can effectively regulate thyroid function. Because iodine deficiency will lead to abnormal thyroid secretion function, which will lead to abnormal human life activities, and the consequences are very serious.
