Quintupled Goodness with Green Tea & Citrus

This good health news was something we noticed at CBC.ca
"You've likely seen the studies that argue green tea is a powerful brew of cancer-fighting antioxidants.
But new research shows that although green tea is high in catechins — antioxidants that have been shown to reduce the risk of chronic diseases like cancer and cardiovascular disorders — the amount of these substances that are available for absorption by the body are lower when they're consumed solely in tea.
Under 20 per cent of catechins, which include EGC, EGCG, EC and ECG, remain after digestion, say the authors.
Scientists have discovered that mixing green tea with other substances, such as citrus juices, vitamin C and even soy milk and rice milk, increases the amount of the antioxidants that can be absorbed by the body.
The study is published in the November issue of Molecular Nutrition and Food Research."
