Green Tea: One of the most studied plant foods - but its benefits depend on...

Green tea leaves are among the most widely studied plant foods in nutrition - yet their real effects are often simplified into antioxidant or longevity claims. In this episode, we take a research-driven look at green tea leaves, focusing on their bioactive compounds, how they interact with the body, and where popular advice goes beyond the evidence. Topics covered include: • What green tea leaves are and how they’re processed • Polyphenols, catechins, and EGCG explained • Green tea vs extracts and supplements • Habitual consumption vs short-term effects • Caffeine, absorption, and timing • Common green tea health myths This is not longevity marketing or supplement advice - it’s a careful breakdown of a traditional plant food, its chemistry, and its realistic role in long-term health.
