Green tea Extract/Tea Polyphenols/Catechins/Amino acids
Product Details
Green tea has been traditionally consumed in Asian cultures for over 5,000 years. The extract is made by steeping the leaves of green tea, followed by the removal of the water content, resulting in a highly concentrated form. The most active and well-researched component of green tea is epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), a catechin associated with many of the beneficial effects of green tea.The key active compounds in green tea extract, known as polyphenols, are responsible for its extensive health benefits. The four main catechins found in green tea are:
1. Epicatechin (EC)
2. Epicatechin gallate (ECG)
3. Epigallocatechin (EGC)
4. Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) - the most abundant and active catechin.
Green tea Extract’s rich polyphenol content has been extensively studied for its antioxidant activity. Antioxidants are crucial in neutralizing harmful free radicals in the body, thereby reducing oxidative stress and potential cellular damage. Additionally, Green tea Extract contains amino acids, vitamins like B and C, and minerals such as magnesium, potassium, and manganese, all contributing to its health-promoting effects.Green tea Extract is a versatile ingredient that can be ingested in capsule or powder form, or applied topically in creams and serums. It is known for its role in promoting weight loss, enhancing brain function, and securing cardiovascular health. Furthermore, its anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties make it an excellent addition to skincare products.
