Fort Wayne Pain Relief with Green Tea
We need to bring back teatime, a quiet time in the middle of the day to experience a quiet cup of tea and escape from the bustle of life! (Your Fort Wayne chiropractor would enjoy such a time again!) Teatime was valuable for the mind and spirit and very likely quite good for the body. Today, most of us just do not have time, but just enjoying tea on the run in a reusable bottle on the way to your chiropractic appointment at Aaron Chiropractic Clinic can be advantageous, especially if it’s green tea.
BENEFITS OF TEA OVERALL
In China, drinking tea is part of daily life. That’s a pretty good idea! In evaluating the health benefits of tea and its active ingredients for osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, and rheumatoid arthritis – common bone and joint diseases bothering many people – researchers found that tea has potential anti-COX (cycolooxygenase) factors and hormone-like effects. They determined that tea has a great potential to be helpful in medicine and healthcare especially as the mechanisms of the different types of tea properties are identified as to their synergistic mechanisms. (1) Tea from plants around us offers us a tasty way to be healthier and even less painful!
BENEFITS OF GREEN TEA FOR PAIN
The more information we gather about what nature offers us by medicinal plants, the more we will want to thank nature! Green tea is a well-known beverage sourced from such medicinal plants. Green tea via lots of pharmacological activities and antinociceptive effects can be effective for pain relief because of its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Green tea is explained to be a safe and often effective treatment for pain management owing to its suppression of inflammation and oxidative stress. (2) Green tea’s major component, EGCG (epigallocatechin-3-gallate), has shown itself to be valuable for its anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant properties. Research papers have published how green tea helps diseases like neurodegenerative and cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, cancer, and obesity. Green tea and its EGCG seem to curb the expression of inflammatory cytokines and inflammation-linked enzymes. The use of green tea quite possibly improves the quality of life for inflammatory disease patients with no severe adverse side-effects. (3) Back pain and its related spinal pain conditions like leg, arm, and neck pain, etc., typically have inflammatory components with them, so adding green tea for its anti-inflammatory benefit may be an advantage.
