Green Tea Extract

The following is a detailed introduction to green tea extract:

Main ingredients

1. Catechins (especially EGCG): accounting for 60-70% of the extract, powerful antioxidants, with anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer potential.

2. Caffeine: about 3-5%, refreshing and promoting metabolism.

3. Amino acids (such as theanine): soothe nerves and improve cognitive function.

4. Vitamins (C, E, etc.) and minerals (potassium, manganese).

Core efficacy

Antioxidant: scavenging free radicals, delaying aging (EGCG’s antioxidant power is 100 times that of vitamin C)

Metabolic promotion: assisting weight loss, can increase basal metabolic rate by 4-5%

Cardiovascular protection: lowering LDL cholesterol, improving blood flow

Neuroprotection: may reduce the risk of Alzheimer’s disease

Blood sugar regulation: improving insulin sensitivity

Application areas

Health products: 500-1000mg/day dose for weight management

Skin care products: 0.5-2% concentration for anti-aging products

Food industry: natural preservatives (replace BHT/BHA)

Medical research: auxiliary ingredients for anti-cancer drugs (clinical trial stage)

Powerful antioxidant protection

Free radical scavenging ability: EGCG’s antioxidant strength is 100 times that of vitamin C and 25 times that of vitamin E (data from the U.S. Department of Agriculture)

Anti-aging effect: continuous use for 12 weeks can increase skin elasticity by 28% and reduce wrinkles caused by UV damage (Journal of Nutritional Biochemistry 2021)

DNA protection: Daily intake of 300mg EGCG can reduce oxidative stress markers (8-OHdG) by 30%

Metabolism regulation and weight management

Enhanced fat oxidation: Intake of 250mg green tea extract before exercise can increase fat burning efficiency by 17% (American Journal of Clinical Nutrition)

Improved basal metabolism: Daily intake of 400mg extract can increase resting energy expenditure by 4-5%, equivalent to 80-100 kcal more per day

Inhibition of fat absorption: By blocking lipase activity, it reduces 15-30% of fat absorption in the diet

Cardiovascular system protection

Cholesterol regulation: Continuous intake of 500mg/day for 3 months, LDL (bad cholesterol) decreased by 5.3%, and HDL increased by 4%

Improved blood pressure: Systolic blood pressure decreased by an average of 2.6mmHg (Meta-analysis of 13 trials included)

Vascular function: Improved endothelial cell function, and blood flow-mediated vasodilation rate increased by 29%

Blood sugar and diabetes prevention

Insulin sensitivity: Type 2 diabetic patients supplemented with extracts for 6 months, fasting blood sugar decreased by 11%

Glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c): decreased by 0.3-0.5% (data from the National Institute of Health and Nutrition, Japan)

Mechanism: inhibits intestinal α-glucosidase and slows down the absorption rate of carbohydrates

Neurocognitive function support

Alzheimer's disease prevention: EGCG can remove β-amyloid plaques and reduce the risk of disease by 29% (Molecular Nutrition & Food Research)

Concentration improvement: Theanine and caffeine work synergistically to improve attention test scores by 13%

Emotional regulation: 200mg of theanine per day reduces the secretion of stress hormone (cortisol) by 21%

Cancer risk intervention

Breast cancer: Women who drink 3 cups of green tea (equivalent to 400mg of extract) per day have a 19% lower risk of disease (10-year cohort study at Kagoshima University)

Prostate cancer: EGCG inhibits the activity of cancer cell metastasis-related enzymes (MMP-2/9) by 67%

Mechanism of action: induce cancer cell apoptosis and inhibit angiogenesis (VEGF reduced by 42%)

Other significant benefits

Oral health: Reduces the formation of cariogenic bacteria (Streptococcus mutans) biofilm by 90%

Liver protection: Reduces the level of ALT/AST, a marker of alcoholic liver damage, by 35-40%

Immune enhancement: Increases CD4+ T cell activity and reduces the risk of influenza virus infection by 23%
