Eating green tea increases muscle mass

Green tea has many benefits and drinking it has become very popular among people today. Researchers have found that drinking green tea reduces muscle damage and increases muscle mass.

In a four-week study, researchers looked at the effects of drinking green tea on 35 young men who had just started exercising.

17 of them drank green tea and 18 others drank sports drinks. After four weeks, the researchers found that green tea increased blood polyphenols and antioxidants. In moderate-intensity muscle training, the researchers found that free radicals produced a significant reduction. In addition, creatine activity, which indicates muscle damage, decreased in the green tea group.

Researchers have found that green tea prevents damage caused by free radicals in sports. Reducing muscle damage increases muscle mass and performance.
