If you choose the infusion, we must take precautions about the number of cups, since, on this subject, there is no agreement among researchers. Let us look this matter.
Japanese Traditional medicine says, for example, Tava Tea that drinking 2 to 3 cups of green tea per day helps to prevent cancer. On the other hand, a study from the University of Cleveland found that 4 or more cups a day prevent or relieve rheumatoid arthritis symptoms. The Japanese Institute Saitama Cancer Research found that drinking 5 or more cups a day prevents breast cancer, although one study from the University of California says that two cups a day would suffice.
In summary, we conclude that consume up to 5 cups a day is effective, safe, and produces no side effect has been detected.
