Mega Green Tea Extract Decaffeinated
Mega Green Tea Extract capsules contain an unprecedented 725 mg of either lightly caffeinated or decaffeinated 93% standardized green tea extracts, which makes it easy to obtain super-potent doses by taking only one of these low-cost capsules per day. Each Mega Green Tea Extract capsule provides 246.5 mg of EGCG about ten times more than what is being put into commercial multivitamin supplements today. EGCG functions as an antioxidant that is about 25-100 times more potent than vitamins C and E.16 One cup of green tea may provide 10-40 mg of polyphenols and has antioxidant effects that are greater than a serving of broccoli, spinach, carrots, or strawberries. The
antioxidant activity of green tea EGCG is about 25-100 times more potent
than vitamins C and E. One cup of green tea may provide 10-40 mg polyphenols
and has antioxidant activity greater than a serving of broccoli, spinach,
carrots or strawberries. The active constituents in green tea are powerful antioxidants called polyphenols (catechins) and flavonols. Several catechins are present in green tea and account for the bulk of favorable research reports. Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) is the most powerful of these catechins. Green tea may also help maintain a healthy body weight.* In one study, mice receiving green tea in their diets had a significant suppression of food intake, weight gain and fat tissue accumulation. Levels of cholesterol and triglycerides were lower in mice who received green tea. This study also showed that leptin levels decreased with green tea treatment, indicating that green tea may have a direct effect in reducing body weight. Research shows that green tea may help maintain the health of the arterial wall by reducing lipids while maintaining healthy platelet aggregation.* There is also evidence from some studies that green tea provides immunoprotective qualities, particularly in the case of patients undergoing radiation or chemotherapy. White blood cell count appears to be maintained more effectively in patients consuming green tea compared to nonsupplemented patients. Supplement to be
taken in conjunction with a healthy diet and regular exercise program.
