Green tea extract provides concentrated catechins, particularly EGCG, powerful antioxidants that support metabolism, brain health, and cardiovascular function. It offers the benefits of green tea without consuming multiple cups daily.
Green tea extract is standardized for catechins, with epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) being the most potent. These polyphenols cross the blood-brain barrier, providing neuroprotective benefits while supporting healthy metabolism and fat oxidation. EGCG also promotes cardiovascular health by supporting healthy cholesterol oxidation and blood vessel function. The extract provides consistent, researched doses of these beneficial compounds.
