Could Green Tea Help In Fighting Prostrate Cancer?

The health properties of green tea have been discussed widely in recent months and this discussion has now moved into the effects which green tea and green tea extract may have in fighting prostrate cancer. Green tea is known to increase the production of detoxifying enzymes within the body which in turn are known to be beneficial in fighting cancer. A variety of different genetic and environmental factors effect the production of glutathione S-transferase (GST) enzymes which are believed to play an important role in fighting cancer causing compounds and it is the production of these enzymes which is stimulated by green tea and green tea extract.
