Like you may know, I like to drink any kinds of tea and in England, researchers, from the Kingston University at London, found out that the white tea can help to prevent wrinkles and some diseases. According to a study done by them, the white tea has a high level of antioxidant which can reduce wrinkles and prevent the cancer, heart diseases o the arthritis. The team, directed by the professor Declan Naughton, examined the properties of 21 plants and herb extracts and they discovered that all of them had some potential benefits but that the properties of white tea exceed all of them. To get to this conclusion, they realized different |
tests to identify the extracts of plants which protect the structural proteins of the skin like the elastin and the collagen.
The elastin is a protein in connective tissue that is elastic and allows many tissues in our body to resume their shape after stretching or contracting which helps a lot for ours lungs, arteries, ligaments and skin. Also to repair the fabrics of our body when they suffer some damage and stop the flaccidity of our skin.
The collagen is a protein of the fabrics which is very important for the elasticity of our skin.
The results showed that the white tea prevents the actions of the enzymes. The enzyme damages the elastin and the collagen and it favors the appearance of wrinkles when we get older. Combined with the oxidants, they are associated with the inflammatory diseases like the rheumatoid arthritis.
So now, we have more reason to drink white tea and for people who do care about wrinkles, it may save them some money since it is cheaper than any cosmetic products :-)
