Why Is Green Tea So Good For Women With PCOS?

Jan 10, 2018

Green tea is “liquid magic” for women with PCOS. Several studies have indicated the benefits of green tea for PCOS in reducing its symptoms.

First of all, green tea is loaded with powerful antioxidants. PCOS is a chronic condition in which oxidative stress plays a major role. Antioxidants in green tea help in lowering this stress, thereby helping to reduce many symptoms of PCOS.

Green tea is rich in a compound called L-theanine that is known to reduce anxiety and calm the mind. Depression is a common symptom of PCOS, and that’s where green tea comes in handy.

Green tea is also known to help burn fats more effectively. This decreases body fat and helps in reducing weight. It also improves physical performance.

Green tea also improves insulin sensitivity. This is probably its most important benefit in the context of PCOS, because insulin resistance is the key cause of this hormonal condition.

Apart from its benefits for PCOS, green tea also helps in lowering the risk of cancer. Green tea is also known to improve lipid profile and decrease the risk of cardiovascular diseases. All in all, green tea is loaded with nutrients and there are many reasons to make it a part of your daily routine.
