In the latest findings, the study authors found that a compound in green tea trigger processes in the mitochondria of cancer cells leading to cell death early.

"We designed a study to use a concentration of EGCG found in green tea and we examine oral leukoplakia (precancerous lesions) and oral cancer cells to get an idea whether the effect of EGCG would be able to reduce reduce the development of oral cancer," said study author Joshua Lambert , as reported by Yahoo Health website on Sunday (15/2).
