Green tea really is a superfood extraordinaire.  Thanks to a potent plant nutrient called epigallocatechin gallate, or EGCG, green tea is proving that food (or beverage, in this case) really is the best medicine. 

It prevents cholesterol build-up in arteries and helps prevent cardiovascular disease.  According to research released earlier this month in the Journal of Biological Chemistry, EGCG helps prevent fat buildup in the arteries.

In another new study published in the Journal of Applied Oral Science, scientists tested the effects of EGCG against bacteria found in the mouth called Streptococcus mutans and found it to be effective. The former used EGCG in dental materials but drinking green tea had a similar inhibitory effects. 

It also helps slow breast cancer growth.  New research published last month in the journal Experimental Cell Research found that EGCG inhibited cancer cell metabolism in breast tumors.
