Green tea, a cold-fighting strategy

It is that time of year: germs are lively and want to attack. Did you know that being green can help prevent sickness? Green Tea that is! Our partner, Mellow Monk shares some insight....

Green tea's claim to fame is its antioxidants, which may help boost the immune system. People drink green tea to fight aging, arthritis, Alzheimer's, cancer, heart disease and many other conditions. But can it prevent the common cold? A 2007 study found the ingredients in green tea can enhance the body's immune system by 28 percent. The antioxidants in green tea are said to be 100 times more effective than vitamin C.

Green tea is one of ten strategies for staving off the common cold:

EcoGreenOffice is a proud retailer of these fine teas... thank you Mellow Monk!

Needing to chuck your old electronics? The Basel Action Network, who contributed documentary footage to this video, compiled a list of Responsible Recyclers that will not export your old computer. Check out their list here: www.ban.org/pledge1.html

EcoGreenOffice sources all of our 'renewed' printer cartridges in the USA and is the exclusive online seller of these products. Many sellers of remanufactured cartridges source from developing countries where there are no regulations and products are inferior. At the same time, many of the 'collectors' of empty cartridges actually send their empties to same place. See the truth about the Remanufactured Cartridge Effort and why EcoGreenOffice can be trusted as a 'green' cartridge supplier.
