Polyphenols, Catechins, and EGCG
The polyphenol flavonoids in green tea are known as catechins. The most studied catechin is epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) - which is responsible for many of the antioxidant, immune support, and metabolic properties of green tea. Wellness Resources Green Tea Extract is standardized for 70% polyphenols, 60% catechins, 30% EGCG.*
Green Tea Extract Assists Weight Management
Green tea catechins have also been shown to enhance the production of adiponectin, an important hormone for healthy insulin function and blood sugar metabolism. They have also been shown to help reduce the excess leptin levels associated with metabolic struggles.*
Caffeinated vs. Decaffeinated Green Tea
Green tea naturally contains some caffeine. A recent meta-analysis of green tea studies has shown that green tea catechins with caffeine are associated with a statistically significant reduction in body mass index, body weight, and waist circumference. This result was not produced by decaffeinated green tea products. There are now a number of human studies showing that caffeinated green tea supports weight loss efforts. Data shows that the green tea catechins and caffeine work synergistically to increase energy expenditure and fat oxidation, working directly on the metabolism of fat cells.*
Green Tea Extract and Skin Health
Green tea extract is shown to improve oxygen flow to the skin and increase antioxidant stores in the skin, thus offering protection from U.V. radiation and chemicals. A 12-week study with women found that green tea catechins were able to improve skin characteristics, including skin elasticity, roughness, scaling, and water content.*
EGCG and Cardiovascular Health
Green tea EGCG has been shown to improve the metabolism of cholesterol and fats, and help protect endothelial cells lining the arteries.*
Green Tea Catechins Improve Brain Health
Green tea catechins were shown to activate and enhance the function of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), thus improving brain plasticity and cognitive function.*
