Increased consumption of green tea might be helpful to reduce the risk of colorectal cancer in those with an unhealthy lifestyle.

PMID: Nutrients. 2019 Nov 1 ;11(11). Epub 2019 Nov 1. PMID: 31683767 Abstract Title: Protective Effect of Green Tea Consumption on Colorectal Cancer Varies by Lifestyle Factors. Abstract: The inconsistent findings regarding green tea intake and colorectal cancer (CRC) risk in several epidemiological studies might result from variations in lifestyle factors. Therefore, we examined whether …
