The Power of Green Tea

Of all the antioxidants known to mankind, the components of green tea are the most potent, ” says Mukhtar. “Antioxidants are those agents which can counteract the effects of oxidant radicals.”  Oxidant radicals — or free radicals, as they are commonly called– are byproducts of the body that can cause damage to cells and tissues.  Antioxidants bind to the free radicals, deactivating them before they can cause harm.” [1]

Studies also suggest that products containing at least five percent green tea extract may help to prevent skin cancer if applied with a sunscreen before going in the sun. Besides its promising anti-aging benefits, green tea is an effective skin care treatment  to help prevent anti aging and helps with skin tightening. Skin care products with green tea extract are as effective as benzoyl peroxide cream but without the possible skin irritation. [2]

Long thought to be the strongest acne fighter, benzoyl peroxide acts as a drying and a peeling agent so that old layers of skin peel away to renew cells and clear pores.  Unfortunately for people with sensitive skin, benzoyl peroxide can cause redness and an uncomfortable burning sensation that can last for hours or days.

Green tea skin care is all natural and gentle on the skin. It’s even proving to be an effective treatment option for rosacea suffers.  According to an article published by WomenFitness.net, women in a study that used a topical green tea treatment experienced a 70% improvement in their skin.

BelisiRX is new product that delivers 12 mega antioxidants , including green tea extract, peppermint oil and shea butter, to treat the aging symptoms that are the most plaguing: loss of elasticity, uneven skin tone and fine lines and wrinkles.
