DESCRIPTION: The ability of green, versus white tea, to protect against in vitro DNA damage caused by a cooked chicken carcinogen (heterocyclic amine). The antioxidant data with that interesting lemon juice result can be found in Green Tea vs. White (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/green-tea-vs-white/). Other interesting videos on tea include Dietary Brain Wave Alteration (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/dietary-brain-wave-alteration/) and Cannabis Receptors & Food (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/cannabis-receptors-food/). The longer-the-better brewing time for white tea didn’t surprise me, but this did: Cold Steeping Green Tea (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/cold-steeping-green-tea/). Another way to maximize the phytonutrient absorption in tea is to eat it; see Is Matcha Good for You? (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/is-matcha-good-for-you/) and A Better Breakfast (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/a-better-breakfast/). One can overdo it, though: Overdosing on Tea (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/overdosing-on-tea/). Other ways to protect one’s DNA include eating broccoli, avoiding bacon, not overdoing stevia, and eating a plant-based diet, see Repairing DNA Damage (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/repairing-dna-damage/) and Research Into Reversing Aging (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/research-into-reversing-aging/). Isn’t caffeinated tea dehydrating though? That’s the topic of tomorrow’s NutritionFacts.org video-of-the-day (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/is-caffeinated-tea-dehydrating/). While you’re waiting, there are an additional 1,000+ topics to explore at https://nutritionfacts.org/topics/.
