Possibly: It is known to contain antioxidants which may be helpful but it depends on your nutritional status. No harm in drinking if you don't have problems with caffeine.

Overhyped: Green tea is the latest in a long line of overhyped nutritional products. Claims include wieght loss, better health, longer life, better endurance. Do not believe the hype. Yes green tea contains some anti-oxidants and phytonutrients, but it still contains caffiene which is a stimulant and has duiretic properties. Too much green tea is not good for you.
