ABSTRACT:
A method is provided for reducing the incidence of lung cancer in a mammal by administering thereto a pharmacologically effective amount of epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG). The EGCG may be administered to the mammal in the form of drinking water and particularly in the form of, for example, 2% green tea. The EGCG may be isolated prior to administering the same and is subsequently put into solution for administration thereof. The EGCG is an antioxidant.
