Query: "What are the health benefits of green tea?"

Green tea contains powerful antioxidants called catechins, particularly EGCG, which have been linked to various health benefits [1]. Research suggests that regular consumption may help improve brain function [2] and support heart health by reducing LDL cholesterol [3]. Studies have also shown potential benefits for weight management [1].
