Green Tea 90c

Product Information: Green Tea extract provides a standardized and extremely potent source of the catechin/polyphenol antioxidants, which have dramatically more free radical-quenching effects than other antioxidants. Research continues to indicate their promise for protecting structures such as membrane lipids and DNA as well as numerous tissues such as skin, joint cartilage, liver, neurons, and the cardiovascular system. The potent catechin/polyphenol antioxidants in green tea have been shown to protect fatty acids from free radical damage 20-200 times more efficiently than vitamin E (Cancer Lett2000;153:1-5; Prev Med 1992;21:520-5). Green tea contains polyphenols such as epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), which possess powerful antioxidant properties having numerous promising clinical applications (Prev Med 1992;21:334-50). High intake of green tea polyphenols is associated with good cardiovascular health (Ann Epidemiol 2000;10:401-8), liver health (BMJ 1995;310:693-6) and protection
