I'm asking because both my mother and sister have battled breast cancer and I want to arm myself with protection. I heard about matcha green tea powder on one of the morning shows.

I dont know but I copied this from their website - EGCg Studied for Possible Breast Cancer Therapies In a 2008 study conducted by researchers at the University of Mississippi researchers found that consuming EGCG significantly inhibits breast tumor growth in female mice. Researchers believe these findings can help lead to new therapies for the prevention and treatment of breast cancer in women.

It is not clear if Matcha green tea prevent or treat breast cancer but experts and doctors say taking this tea daily reduces the chance of getting breast cancer. For your morning caffeine fix, Dr. Funk, a herbal medicine specialist, suggests for for taking green tea instead. Coffee doesn't increase your risk of getting cancer, but he explains, "three cups of green tea a day decreases breast cancer risk by half." Specifically, Matcha green tea is said to be the best. Rachel Beller, a nutritional oncology specialist, reveals that Matcha "has ten to fifteen times the antioxidant power as regular green tea that comes in a bag." A splash of citrus can boost the antioxidant levels in your tea as well. "Adding lemon juice to the green tea will enhance the antioxidant power by four times." Ginger, too, is an anti-cancer heavyweight. Spices like turmeric and oregano spruce up bland dishes while they fight-off cancer. "Population studies show that individuals who ingest turmeric on a regular basis have a lower incidence of breast cancer," Beller says, adding that oregano is perfect "sprinkled on roasted vegetables." There is no adverse effect in consuming Matcha green tea and hence I feel it is worth giving a try for this.-

Simple answer...NO If this were the case, there wouldn't be any need for Dr.'s & people wouldn't have that devastating disease. The best way to arm yourself with protection is to have regular screenings, eat a healthy diet & live a healthy lifestyle. Just because your Mom & Sister have breast cancer, doesn't mean you will. It simply means that you are at higher risk than someone who's Mom or Sister doesn't have it
