GreenTea
EGCG 150 mg


Composition:
Each capsule contains:
EGCG from Green tea extract ………. 150 mg
Health benefits:
Reduction of extra body fat
Green tea polyphenols have been shown to inhibit digestive lipase in vitro, resulting in decreased lipolysis of triglycerides, which reduced fat digestion in humans. It improves weight maintenance through thermogenesis and fat oxidation by inhibiting catechol-O-methyl transferase (COMT), an enzyme that degrades norepinephrine, that enhances fat loss by stimulating the release of fatty acids from fat cells into the bloodstream for burning as fuel.
Suppression of abnormal cell growth
Green tea catechins, such as EGCG and its derivatives support normal cell growth. EGCG prevents new blood vessel growth in tumors and also inhibits tumor cell proliferation, blocks cell cycle progression and induces apoptosis. EGCG significantly increases the expression of tumor-suppressor proteins and exhibits anti-angiogenic activities in various experimental studies. They have protective effects against several kinds of cancer. EGCG inhibits thrombin induced hepatocellular carcinoma cell invasion. (Humboldt University, Germany). Scientific studies show that EGCG inhibits human head and neck squamous carcinoma cell growth and decreases the thickness of the dermal fat layer under tumors. It also induces apoptosis in breast, prostate and ovarian cancer.
Supporting rejuvenation and anti-aging
Accumulation of senescent cells in adipose tissue plays an important role in obesity and age-related diseases. The targeting SIRT3 activating compound such as epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) delays senescence of cells and senescence induced inflammatory processes. EGCG suppresses premature senescence of preadipocytes by inhibition of PI3K pathway and induces senescent cell death by regulation of Bax/Bcl-2 pathway.

If pregnant or breast-feeding, seek supervision from a physician before use. Tannins found in green tea can reduce iron absorption, thus separate doses from iron supplements at least 2 hours.
