@drwilliamli: 🍵 Green tea is good for you — and here’s why. When you steep green tea, the catechins and polyphenols in the leaves dissolve into the hot water. These compounds have been shown in lab studies to help cut off the blood supply cancers need to grow. But steeping doesn’t extract all the catechins — some remain in the leaves. That’s where matcha stands out. About 28 days before harvesting, the tea plants are shaded, boosting their polyphenol content. The leaves are then dried and ground into a fine powder, so when you drink matcha, you consume the entire leaf. 🍵 That means: • 100% of the polyphenols • The dietary fiber • Nothing left behind It’s all in your cup. 👉 Masterclass Dec 30 at 8 PM ET — link in bio. #drwilliamli #foodasmedicine #greentea #matcha #polyphenols #catechins #longevityscience #cancerresearch #nutritioneducation
