Green Tea Extract
The key to good health may be found in a cup of tea! A study conducted at the USDA Human Nutrition Research
Center on Aging at Tufts University and the University of ConnecticutÕs nutritional science department shows that
tea has potent antioxidants; more potent than the antioxidants found in over 20 vegetables they studied including
broccoli, cauliflower, garlic and spinach. While tea shouldnÕt replace vegetables in your diet, drinking black,
oblong and green tea or supplementing with Green Tea Extract may boost your antioxidant intake.
Green Tea Extract comes from the natural dried leaves of the tea plant (Camellia sinensis) and has been used for
thousands of years in Asia as a beverage and an herbal medicine. Green Tea Extract contains
natural caffeine that can activate the central nervous system, which in turn increases the bodyÕs ability to burn extra
calories and unwanted fat. This process is known as Thermogenesis. More importantly, Green Tea Extract is an
excellent source of potent, bioflavonoid rich compounds that are high in polyphenols, which are a special class of
bioflavonoids. Catechins, and in particular (-) Epigallocatechin Gallate (EGCG), is the most important polyphenol
and has the strongest antioxidant action. Research has shown that EGCG is more powerful than vitamin E in
neutralizing free radicals.
An interesting, yet little known, fact about Green Tea is that it is rich in fluoride and therefore can help reduce
tooth decay. Green Tea Extract has also been successfully used in the treatment of respiratory and digestive
related conditions and to boost immune system function.
