Green Tea is an antioxidant used in many beauty and health regimens because it neutralizes free radicals. An antioxidant is any substance that reduces oxidative damage (damage due to oxygen) such as that caused by free radicals. Free radicals are highly reactive chemicals that attack molecules by capturing electrons and thus modifying chemical structures.
Green Tea was first popularized in Japan and India green tea has been used for a variety of medical purposes.
