Green Tea Compounds Prevent Hypoxia Damage

Compounds in green tea protect against
neurological damage from obstructive sleep apnea -- at least in
rats, researchers said here.
The compounds also prevent loss of cognitive ability as measured in a maze test, according to David Gozal, M.D., of the Kosair Children's Hospital Research Institute, and colleagues.
The findings suggest that the "potential therapeutic role" of green tea catechin polyphenols (GTPs) deserves more investigation, Dr. Gozal and colleagues said in the May 15 issue of the American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine.
