Using a mouse model, researchers tracked the absorption and use of a strong antioxidant found in green tea and found it could ameliorate high-fat, high-fructose induced insulin resistance that leads to diabetes, and reduce cognitive impairments triggered in many people by a Western diet.

According to Xuebo Liu, Ph.D., researcher at the college of Food Science and Engineering at A&F University in China, quoted in Science Daily:  “Green tea is the second most consumed beverage in the world after water, and is grown in at least 30 countries. The ancient habit of drinking green tea may be a more acceptable alternative to medicine when it comes to combatting obesity, insulin resistance, and memory impairment."
