The 8 Healthiest Drinks
Green Tea
When you think of good-for-you beverages, water immediately comes to mind, but there are others worth adding to your diet. "Some drinks have tremendous health benefits, from relieving minor ailments like indigestion to protecting against serious ones like osteoporosis," says Dan Nadeau, MD, medical director of Exeter Hospital's HealthReach Diabetes, Endocrinology, and Nutrition Center in Exeter, New Hampshire. Here, eight healthy drinks that are packed with disease-fighting nutrients. Now that's easy to swallow.
The Benefit: Helps reduce risk of osteoporosis, cancer, heart disease, and cavities. Green tea contains a rich concentration of flavonoids and polyphenols, natural antioxidants that may protect cells from carcinogens (cancer-causing substances) and inhibit tumor growth by helping to neutralize free radicals in the body. The tea's antioxidants may also guard against heart disease by relaxing blood vessels, inhibiting the formation of blood clots that trigger heart attacks and strokes. Green tea also contains fluoride, which strengthens teeth; the flavonoids may build up bones as well, reducing the risk of osteoporosis and tooth decay.

5/17/2013 03:48:14 PM Report AbuseI have to say from reading that I feel I should just drink green tea from now on. My wife uses skinny sprinkles, she found it at www.slimandhealthy.org She finds it stops her wanting to snack and eat too much. Slightly different approach to the above. But if it works, which it does.

9/29/2012 01:38:00 PM Report AbuseGreen tea contains fluoride.. yes.. and TOO MUCH FLUORIDE is bad for BONES.. it is called skeletal fluorosis. Make sure if you're adding green tea that you make it with fluoride free water, if possible. Otherwise, you will be like me, finding out that you were dosing yourself with the highest tolerable limit and had it continued.... I'd have BONE problems later. DO YOUR RESEARCH - fluoride is not required for health! http://www.fluoridealert.org/s-fluorosis.htm
