These livers were then transplanted into rats with unhealthy livers. The study found that only 13% of the rats that received livers untreated with green tea survived, while 77% that had received a liver treated with green tea extract had survived.

Green Tea Study 2: In a research studying the effects of green tea on treating acne, researcher Gan Wong et al. (Memorial Medical Center in the Philippines) compared the effects of 3% green tea cream and 4% benzoyl peroxide on moderate to severe acne.
