Question
Can children drink green tea?
Answer
Green tea is believed to have the effect of preventing and treating radiation damage. The polyphenols in tea and their oxidized products can absorb the harmful effects of radioactive substances such as strontium-90 and cesium-60. According to the results of clinical trials by the medical department, for patients receiving radiation therapy for cancer, the effectiveness of treatment with tea extracts for mild radiation sickness can reach over 90%; for leukopenia, the treatment effectiveness is about 81.7%; and the treatment effect for leukopenia caused by radiation is even better.
