Green tea's impact on brain health is another intriguing property. The caffeine in green tea acts as a stimulant, improving brain function, mood, and alertness. Additionally, the amino acid L-theanine in green tea can cross the blood-brain barrier, increasing the activity of the inhibitory neurotransmitter GABA, which has anti-anxiety effects.

The antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties of green tea also contribute to skin health. Topical application or consumption of green tea can protect the skin from UV radiation, reduce signs of aging, and improve skin elasticity.
