Drink Green Tea for Your Skin

Let's talk about some interesting benefits of using green tea, both topically and drinking it for your skin. I've done other videos on what it can do for your cancer, but there are some real interesting things that can help you with your skin. I'm talking about the polyphenols. These are phytonutrients. Number one, anti-photo-aging. What does that mean? It means reducing the aging effect on your skin from UV light, from the sun. So number one, it can protect you from the radiation from sun to prevent the aging of your skin. Number two, it can increase collagen and elastin fibers by suppressing enzymes that are degrading collagen because the chemicals in green tea help suppress the enzymes that degrade or break down collagen and elastin. So that's pretty cool. Number three, it's loaded with anti-inflammatory properties. Number four, and this is cool, it can induce autophagy. We know fasting induces autophagy, but green tea will also trigger autophagy, which is the recycling of old damaged proteins into new proteins. That's what makes your skin look youthful. All right, number five, it can actually promote enzymes to help clean up free radicals that can damage your DNA. Anything that can reduce the free radicals on your DNA is going to be very beneficial for protecting your skin. It can also decrease hydrogen peroxide too, that your body is generating. Number six, it's a potent stress mediator. What is a stress mediator? Well, that has a biological definition, okay? There's different definitions of mediator, which in the thumbnail sketch will just help you resist stress. Number seven has potential for decreasing the risk to cancer of your skin, both melanoma type cancer and non-melanoma type cancer. So drink more green tea, especially when you're doing fasting, because fasting also has very similar properties.
