Bad science sells so-called healthy products

Green tea does contain health-giving polyphenols, but these plant chemicals that protect arteries from inflammation are readily available in many other foods. More potent anti-inflammatory, naturally occurring substances are in egg yolks, over which mainstream medicine is idiotically cautious. Egg yolks contain the anti-oxidants selenium and amino acids l-cysteine, l-tyrosene, and l-tryptophane. Two raw egg yolks a day normalise LDL, which is the marker for artery inflammation. It’s this inflammation that leads to calcium deposits (clogging).

Egg yolks are also high in Vitamin K2, needed to direct calcium into hard tissues and bones, and away from soft tissues and arteries. They are high in the brain nutrients phosphotidyl serine and phosphotidyl choline. Peptides in egg yolks lower blood pressure. There is about 0.25mg each of lutein and zeaxanthin in one raw egg yolk, both essential for healthy eyes. 

The negatives in green tea far outweigh the expected benefits. Green (and black) teas are very high in naturally occurring fluoride. Fluoride has two negative effects: It attracts and stores radioactive particles in the spleen, from there available to start and fuel all malignancies, and heavy tea drinkers’ excessive exposure to fluoride can cause a debilitating bone disease known as skeletal fluorosis.

Further, tea has a high content of two allergens, acetyl salacylic acid and caffeic acid. Each of these inflames eight different specific body parts. An inflamed part allows easy entry for the cancer nucleus and cancer complex to start and fuel a malignancy at that site. (Clark HR, PhD ND, 2007). My green- and black-tea consumption is zero. Herbal teas such as Jiao Gulan, mulberry leaf and papaya leaf have real health benefits. I drink those.
