Speaking at an international conference on diet and cancer, researchers funded by the American Institute for Cancer Research (AICR) presented evidence that a major component in green tea may short-circuit the cancer process in a striking new way that scientists had not foreseen.
AICR experts also released the results of surveys showing that only 15% of Americans say they drink green tea on a typical day, and less than 1% of Americans are currently drinking enough green tea to match the average per capita consumption in Asian countries.
