104 – Green Tea
Learn about the health benefits of green tea while learning English on this ESL podcast. Another great spoken English lesson
ESL Conversation
|
- Green tea contains high levels of antioxidants. Antioxidants are particles that remove the charge from the free radicals moving around the body. Over time, free radicals damage the body. Free radicals are said to cause cancer, heart disease, aging, and many other problems.
– Green tea helps boost the immune system. The immune system is the body’s own natural defence system against viruses and bacteria. If we didn’t have an immune system, we would die from a common cold. A healthy immune system helps us to get sick less often. – Green tea helps to suppress appetite. This indirectly helps people to maintain a healthy weight. – Green tea helps to stabilize blood sugar levels. Maintaining stable blood sugar levels reduces the risk of aquiring type 2 diabetes.
|
Phrases and Vocabulary used:
Antioxidants – particles that remove the charge on free radicals
A healthy diet should be high in antioxidants.
Free radicals - Tiny charged particles that act like little magnets, floating around in the body and causing damage to it.
The reason we want to eat a diet high in antioxidants is so that we can reduce the number of free radicals in our bodies.
Immune system – The body’s natural defense system against viruses, bacteria, and other foreign particles that shouldn’t be inside the body.
A strong immune system helps us fight off disease.
Suppress – Suppressing something means to keep it from getting high or hold something back.
Not getting enough sleep can suppress our immune system.
Indirectly – This is a little difficult to define but an example and an explanation will work better i think.
His new job made him really tired and stressed. Because he was too tired to cook, he ordered a lot of pizza. He worked a lot of overtime and usually didn’t feel like going to the gym after work. He figures that his job indirectly caused him to gain a lot of weight.
This means that his new job made him do things that caused him to gain weight. Ording pizza and not exercising were the direct reasons he gained weight, but his job was the reason he ordered pizza and stopped exercising.
Stabilize – Stabilizing something means to keep it balanced. Keep it so it doesn’t rise or fall a lot. Her old job really made her emotional. Her mood has stabilized since she quit.

Hello guys! I don\’t want the taste of green tea, but now that I\’ve heard from you its benefits, I will surely drink it from now on. Thanks for the lesson!
August 27th, 2008 at 8:39 am
Thanks!
Glad to be the first one who leave message for you guys!
In Chinese we call it “on the sofa ” heh.
Thanks again
August 27th, 2008 at 8:41 am
oh~ i lost my sofa~~
August 27th, 2008 at 12:03 pm
Another excellent lesson guys.
I cant image the taste of combination of green tea and fruit juice, but i\’ll try.
I agree with Andrew that green tea doesn\’t suppress appetite too well because it doesn\’t work on me either. Probably it\’s just the feeling of satisfaction of eating food that i\’m indulging in. There\’s nothing about hunger.

We just returned from a vacation in Grimsby Ontario going to visit our Canadian friends who live over there and we received a lot of compliments for our improved English! And the reason for this is you guys!
Our friends are still laughing for having used expressions like “pony up” or “gullable”!!
Thanks a lot for all this, we appreciate all this stuff

Hello Guys,
I have completed all of your lessons. I\\\’m still listening to them over and over again without getting tired of doing so. By the way, I am curios why you are no longer publishing business english stuffs. They were really beneficial. Looking forward to seeing new ones. And also talk show, both you deicided to make some talk show podcasts but we could see only one.
It will be better if you continue to prepare similliar podcasts. And finally videocasts of course, they were awesome.
Cheers

I thought the caffeine in green tea makes us hungry since it helps our digestion.. :S
September 4th, 2008 at 2:22 am
Hey guys, i want to ask an english question. If you are talking on the phone, your friend ask you to go out but at that time you have to OT. so what’s the standard way to tell your friend.
choice 1. I’m having a meeting at that time.
choice 2. I’ll be in a meeting at that time.
I’m a little confused about the use of these two tense. one is be+V.(-ing), like i’m doing sth. the other is will be+V.(ing), like i will be doing sth.
In the future when you will be doing sth, you could use I’m doing sth at that time or it’s better to use i will be doing sth at that time?
October 17th, 2008 at 7:57 am
Thank for your job very much! It is a great source of listening!
March 7th, 2009 at 6:33 pm
This is Michael , I already left some comments on forums, sorry if some of them do n’t make sense! I guess it happened due i was on run(did n’t have enough time). Hope you guys could pick something out of it!
Any way I guess you opened a really good issue about the importance of having a good diet, life plan and how feel better and so on. And I really thank you two because of those juicy terms!( to avoid plagiarism ; told by Andrew)
Finally, I remember once Addison said that you’re short in stories, I have some story about myself that can lend you! And I’m positive you are able (with your high intelligent) to paraphrase it, and make another fabulous story of it.

Now I realized why my lady is drinking green tea all the time.. She is a chemist specialized in food analysis. Thank you for drawing my attention to the importance of green tea.
