Citing a handful of small studies that found a link between green tea and the prevention of prostate and breast cancer, the FDA declared that there is in fact no such link. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/8424430/

After careful review, the FDA found that there was no direct connection between the consumption of green tea and potential job opportunities for FDA officials. Further there was nothing to indicate that FDA staffers would be invited to even a three-star restaurant to discuss the results over dinner. And have you seen what green tea enthusiasts consider to be a good bottle of wine?

However, the FDA does remain open to the possibility that green tea may be beneficial if a credible corporate pharmaceutical manufacturer can find a way to patent it and sell it for $93 a cup ($12 a cup in Canada). "..........
