Green Tea Extract Can Protect Your Muscles from Damage

Here's some good news about a really healthy diet supplement: green tea extract can protect your muscles from "exercise-induced" damage. A new study showed that people who took 640 mg of polyphenol-rich green tea extract every day had significantly less oxidative damage after performing heavy strength training exercise.

What does this mean for you? Possibly faster recovery, less muscle soreness, and a reduced chance of overtraining (and its many health-related consequences) after lifting weights or performing other intense training!
