Green Tea Library Website Launched

To answer this question, Taylor created "The Green Tea Library," which gives an overview of green tea's health benefits, and backs everything with summaries of the most important scientific evidence currently available.

(PRWeb) November 30, 2006 -- Nadine Taylor, M.S., R.D., author of the popular book Green Tea: The Natural Secret to a Healthier Life, announces the launch of a new, free website, "The Green Tea Library" (www.GreenTeaLibrary.com).

It's the only organized, simplified collection of scientific studies demonstrating the health benefits of this popular beverage.

For centuries, doctors, healers and tea drinkers have touted the healing benefits of green tea, which are said to range from preventing cancer and heart disease to fighting cavities. But is green tea's prowess as a health-enhancing substance truly based on scientific fact, or is it more like health food store hype?

To answer this question, Taylor created "The Green Tea Library," which gives an overview of green tea's health benefits, and backs everything with summaries of the most important scientific evidence currently available. It's all simplified, easy to understand and arranged according to diseases or conditions, such as elevated cholesterol, obesity, cancer in general, lung cancer, breast cancer and dental problems.

Taylor offers a concise explanation of each problem/condition, then presents the most recent and/or important studies showing how green tea can help. Human studies are discussed first, since they carry more weight, followed by animal and laboratory studies.

When readers click on any study, they find a summary of important facts in a bare-bones format that includes:

•    type of study

•    who participated

•    where the study occurred

•    what happened

•    side effects (if any)

•    the researcher's conclusion

•    author contact

•    the study's citation (linked to its abstract on PubMed, whenever possible).

"The Green Tea Library" is a fast and simple way to access brief summaries of solid scientific information linking green tea to better health. It's essential for anyone who wants to understand why green tea is called "a steaming cup of medicine" and wants to find the studies that prove it.

At last, the scientific evidence behind green tea's health-enhancing effects, gathered together and simplified for everyone to understand - and it's all for free.
