Green tea is a form of tea that has undergone minimal oxidation during processing. It has traditionally been popular only in its native China and other parts of Asia. Western traders in the 18th and 19th centuries prized black tea over green because it could survive the long journeys back to Europe and the Americas. But with modern transportation, green tea has gradually emerged as a viable and popular drink throughout the world.
It is greatly prized for its health effects, which may include prevention of cancer and obesity. Green tea is also high in EGCG, a type of catechin that is believed to have numerous health benefits.
