The Role of Tea in Human Health

FlyingAce
By FlyingAce

Tea is an important dietary source of flavanols and flavonols. In vitro and animal studies provide strong evidence that tea polyphenols may possess the bioactivity to affect the pathogenesis of several chronic diseases, especially cardiovascular disease and cancer. However, the results from epidemiological and clinical studies of the relationship between tea and health are mixed. International correlations do not support this relationship although several, better controlled case-referent and cohort studies suggest an association with a moderate reduction in the risk of chronic disease. Conflicting results between human studies may arise, in part, from confounding by socioeconomic and lifestyle factors as well as by inadequate methodology to define tea preparation and intake. Clinical trials employing putative intermediary indicators of disease, particularly biomarkers of oxidative stress status, suggest tea polyphenols could play a role in the pathogenesis of cancer and heart disease.

yv2r, you have given too much importance to yourself. Why did you even think that I would accept whatever you send so as to fight.

You are obsessive.....get yourself treated.

yv2r, only people like you are good for social forum. I will fight with the whole world, Its non of your business. Go back to your posts and recheck, almost all your posts are regarding my comments rather than the topic of the post itself.

and ignore each other both of you.

By yv2r• 7 Jul 2010 13:06
yv2r

please tell,see what time she has said after that 3 posted,i was generally saying why not QL for that honourable respected madam started fighting with me ,

every now and then you also will be telling her to cool down on many ocassions when she fight with other members also.

This agressiveness is not good for a social forum.

If I am wrong, i will definitely apologise,i have no intension of hurting any one here,

who ever say any negetive she concludes that they are aginst her.

soniya

saad, even i've read sometime back that having two-three cups of tea in a day can reduce the risk of heart attack..

I am not addicted to tea actually..For me morning tea is enough..And if my mom or anyone forces me to go for eve snacks, i prefer to have a very little qty of tea then...

By yv2r• 7 Jul 2010 12:55
yv2r

No one is superior against another,Let all the members who have participated in this thread if i have abused,insulted.

when the topic is about tea adiction i asked why only Tea how about QL adiction.

Dramana comented at 1158 after that there are about 3coments including Rizk saying about Tea,I said why only Tea why not QL,is it wrong.

How dare you can use such abusive language,it shows culture of you

drmana

DaRuDe, because as per Mr. yv2r I am a QL addict which is very troubling for him and he has been concerned about my being in QL 24/7 ever since the day I joined QL. Till I am in QL, he will not be able to focus on anyone else. Please MODs have mercy on Mr. Yv2r and ban me ASAP.

yv2r, have I ever commented anything against you? or is it that you have a special crush on me. You are scary. You must have an obsession about me somehow. You come across as a person who is used to stalking.

By drmana• 7 Jul 2010 12:36
drmana

yv2r, you really want to me show where you commented against me. Its not against you bugger, its like being stalked. IF I say "A", you would say " why so A", I said I can't see WC, you say how will you manage anyway after being in QL 24/7, If I say "b", You will say someone is always saying "b". That is stalking yv2r and I had made my objections clear many times to you in good language but you thick headed creature seems to not understand that language.

By yv2r• 7 Jul 2010 12:32
