Catechins : The wonder element
Scientists from Japan Cancer Institute have been successful in identifying substances in Green Tea called Catechins or Polyphenols, which act as strong antioxidants among others. They are in a position to clinically establish the old adage that "tea is a miraculous medicine for the maintenance of health."

Catechins remain unchanged in Green Tea as leaves are merely cut, dried and steamed as opposed to black tea which is fermented. This process also ensures that there remains no tannin in Green Tea - a substance that interferes with the absorption of calcium, iron and protein by the body. Green Tea has also been proved to be very low on caffeine - about one third of that in a cup of coffee.

Catechins : The Elixir of Life
Lipid Peroxide, which is known to trigger such diseases like cancer, cardiovascular ailments and diabetes, is more easily generated as the age advances. It also creates Lipofuscin, which is better known as the ageing index.

It has been proved clinically that Catechin in Green Tea has strong anti-oxidising properties and is considered by the medical fraternity as a wonder drug that suppresses the process of ageing. Regular intake of Green Tea can, therefore, provide a strong foundation against ageing.

The beneficial aspects of Green Tea are that it refreshes the body, stimulates every organ and particularly rejuvenates the central nervous system.

It deters food poisoning, stops the formation of the cavities by fighting dental disease and provides the body with an effective shield against various viral infections, apart from acting as a function food.

Little wonder that the earliest Buddhists, the first regular converts to this elixir of life, attained nirvana and where such prime examples of health.

Luckily, the secret of good health of the old masters is today available to man and the increasing popularity of Green Tea is expected to provide a viable and inexpensive solution to a plethora of diseases stalking the mankind.

At Apple Valley, we are seeking to bring this ancient tradition and popularise it, so as to tread the path shown by the masters and conquer man's foes - disease and ageing. Apple Valley's Long Life is our humble dedication towards this end.
