Green tea protects against heart disease: study

Why focus on the car when you can get nice floor mats?
"A few cups of green tea each day may help prevent heart disease, Greek researchers said on Wednesday...

The study showed that green tea improves blood flow and the ability of arteries to relax, said Charalambos Vlachopoulos, a cardiologist at the Athens Medical School in Greece who worked on the study..

The researchers gave 14 healthy volunteers either green tea, diluted caffeine or hot water on three separate occasions and then measured the function of endothelial cells lining the circulatory system...

The measurements taken 30, 90 and 120 minutes following consumption showed an almost immediate benefit among people who had drunk green tea, he said...

While the researchers looked only at a short-term impact, Vlachopolous said the team's not-yet-published studies suggest the protection is long lasting."
This report has nothing to do with the title of the article and is another example of MSM lies.

There was no "improvement."

At most, there was change.

There was no protection.

At most, there was "short-term impact."

The volunteers were "healthy."

There was no decreased development of heart disease.

The article is a lie.

The research is stupid.

The conclusion is misleading.

Lose the weight if you are fat.
