Green tea is found to consist a psychological effect on patients with depression, a renowned institute study suggested
Depression is a normal response as part of our daily lives such as the loss of s job, the death of a loved one, and illness, affecting the way you eat, sleep, and the way you feel about yourself. Over 30 million Americans suffer from depression and the amount is increasing at an alarming rate.
Green tea, a precious drink processes a number of health benefits known to almost everyone in Asia and the Western world. However, as yin in nature herbal medicine or food, long-term injection of large amounts may obstruct the balance of yin-yang, inducing "excessive yin syndrome" or "yang vacuity syndrome" including weakened immunity and painful case of GERD,... according to traditional Chinese medicine's Yin-Yang theory.
In a cross-sectional study of the consumption of green tea and coffee ascertained with a validated dietary questionnaire and the amount of caffeine intake estimated from these beverages, green tea consumption is associated to reduce symptoms of depression, depending on the amount of intake.
In comparison to the amount intake of participants, the study also found that participants who consumed ≥4 cups of green tea/d had a 51% significantly lower prevalence odds of having depressive symptoms than those who consumed less than 1 cup/d.
Dr. Pham NM, the lead author in the study said, "Higher consumption of green tea, coffee, and caffeine may confer protection against depression".
In vivo, green tea(GT) and GABA green tea (GGT) also expressed a protective activity against post-stroke depression (PSD), a common consequence of stroke, according to a joint study led by the Pavia University.
In a mouse model of post-stroke depression, GGT and GT enhance the activity in the modulation of depressive symptoms through decreased oxidative stress, and increased antioxidant endogenous defenses, including polyphenol, theanine, glutamine, etc......
Furthermore, in the review of Embase, PubMed, and Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure databases from their inception through August 2014, tea consumption of more than 3 cups a day showed a significant decrease in the risk of depression of 37% (RR = 0.63, 95% CI: 0.55-0.71), in compared to individuals with lower tea consumption and those with higher tea consumption.
Taken together, there is no doubt, green tea may be used as a functional food in reduced symptoms and risk of depression if consumes daily. However, oral administration of large amounts daily should be taken with care, particularly for people with yin constituents.
