日本科学家发现,绿茶具有抑制癌细胞扩散的功效。东京癌研究中心的研究人员经调查发现,居住在日本静冈县地区的人死于癌症者明显少于其他地区。静冈是一个出产绿茶的地区,这里的居民主要以绿茶为饮料。研究结果表明,绿茶中的丹宁可抑制恶性肿瘤的生长。研究人员从绿茶中分离出了丹宁的主要成分,为表棓儿茶索桔酸盐(EGCG),并用大鼠进行了实验 Japanese scientists found that green tea has the effect of inhibiting the spread of cancer cells. Researchers at the Tokyo Cancer Research Center survey found that people living in Shizuoka Prefecture in Japan were significantly less likely to die of cancer than other regions. Shizuoka is a region where green tea is produced, and residents here mainly drink green tea. The results show that tannin in green tea can inhibit the growth of malignant tumors. Researchers isolated the main constituents of tannin from green tea as epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) and performed experiments in rats
