Short answer: No. Green Tea, also known as green tea extract or Chinese tea (Scientific name: Camellia sinesis) is a drink made from the steamed and dried leaves of the Camellia sinesis plant, a shrub native to Asia. Black tea is also made from this plant, but unlike green tea, it is made from leaves that have been fermented. Fermentation may reduce the levels of some compounds, such as antioxidants, in black tea. Overview Some researchers believe green tea may have a protective effect against certain cancers because it contains antioxidants. However, results from human studies have been mixed. More research is needed to determine its role in cancer prevention.
