| 0:00.0 | Today on the exam room, |
| 0:04.4 | Matche Green Tea has the power to eradicate stem cells |
| 0:08.4 | on a Petri dish. |
| 0:10.4 | I think it can do the same thing inside of you because in human studies not looking at |
| 0:16.4 | stem cell eradication specifically but just looking at |
| 0:20.4 | high versus low consumers of green tea what what's your story, do you live longer, do you not? |
| 0:25.9 | There was one study in particular that looked at three cups of green tea a day in stages |
| 0:31.4 | one, two, and three breast cancer patients. |
| 0:33.6 | And for stage one patients, three cups of green tea a day |
| 0:37.9 | drop breast cancer recurrence by 57%. |
| 0:41.6 | Three cups a day in stage two was a 37% drop. |
| 0:46.1 | That packs a heck of a punch. |

| 0:52.3 | not really dressing it up with a whole lot of sugars and other flavors and things like that correct? |
| 0:56.8 | Correct. You don't want to then send refined sugars and a bunch of dairy-based creamers flying through your bloodstream at the same time as the green tea |
| 1:04.7 | because then it will probably just duke it out with those oxidants and never get to the exam room podcast brought to you by the Physicians Committee. |
| 1:19.0 | Hi, I'm the Weight Loss Champion Chuck Carroll, raising health IQs coast to coast and |
| 1:24.4 | around the world. |
| 1:26.0 | High to the exam roomies listening in Frisco, Texas, home of the Dallas Cowboys, Fontana, |
| 1:31.2 | California, and Valparaiso, Chile. |
| 1:34.8 | Wherever you are, we appreciate you helping to make the world a healthier place. |
