The Key Ingredients
THE INGREDIENTS IN THIS  RECIPE are detoxification stars. The vitamin C-rich lemon is a powerful purifier for the blood and organs, and helps purge the body of impurities while supporting the liver and kidneys. The red pepper flakes lend a metabolism-boosting kick that helps the body pump blood and remove toxins and impurities at a faster rate. The green tea helps provide the body with potent phytochemicals and polyphenols such as catechins that act as powerful antioxidants, helping support the immune system as the detoxification process progresses. 
*Note 1: Phytochemicals are chemical compounds produced by plants. They are commonly found in fruits, vegetables, nuts, legumes, and grains.
Note 2 : Polyphenols are micronutrients that we get through certain plant-based foods. They're packed with antioxidants and potential health benefits. Polyphenols are abundant micronutrients in our diet, and evidence for their role in the prevention of degenerative diseases such as cancer and cardiovascular ...Polyphenols are secondary metabolites of plants and are generally involved in defense against ultraviolet radiation or aggression by pathogens.
But why are plant-based foods so powerful? Why do I repeat over and over to my heart patients to get seven to 10 servings a day of brightly colored fruits and vegetables? For example, just this week the news channels reported a story that blueberries improve both blood pressure and the healthy flexibility of arteries, making them act younger.

The secret that blueberries and other selected whole foods possess is that they are rich sources of polyphenols. Let's get to know these powerful chemicals a bit more.

Time to pay attention for a one-minute food chemistry lesson. Polyphenols are a group of plant-based chemicals that have at least one phenol group (don't ask me why we don't call some monophenols — I don't know). One broad type of polyphenols are phenolic acids including red fruits, black radishes, onions, coffees, cereals and spices.

The second broad group are the flavonoids, including isoflavones found in soy, anthocyanidins found in berries and wine, flavones found in herbs, flavonols found in broccoli, tomato and tea, flavanones found in citrus fruits and juices, and flavan-3-ols found in cocoa, tea and wine.

Finally, some famous ones don't fit into any class, including resveratrol and stilbenes from wine and nuts, curcumin in spices, and lignans in flaxseeds.

Polyphenols improve your health in six ways:

Lower cholesterol
Lower blood pressure
Improve artery (endothelial) function
Prevent platelet clumping
Improve arterial flexibility

Improved life span
