Key Ingredient Discussion

Green tea has been consumed throughout the ages in India, China, Japan, and Thailand. In traditional Chinese and Indian medicine, practitioners used green tea as a stimulant, diuretic (to promote the excretion of urine), astringent (to control bleeding and help heal wounds), and to improve heart health.* Other traditional uses of green tea include treating flatulence (gas), regulating body temperature and blood sugar, promoting digestion, and improving mental processes.* Green tea is made from unfermented leaves and reportedly contains the highest concentration of powerful antioxidants called polyphenols. Antioxidants are substances that scavenge free radicals - damaging compounds in the body that alter cells, tamper with DNA (genetic material), and even cause cell death. Free radicals occur naturally in the body, but environmental toxins (including ultraviolet rays from the sun, radiation, cigarette smoke, and air pollution) also give rise to these damaging particles. Many scientists believe that free radicals contribute to the aging process as well as the development of a number of health problems, including cancer and heart disease. Antioxidants such as polyphenols in green tea can neutralize free radicals and may reduce or even help prevent some of the damage they cause.*

Green Tea is rich in polyphenols, including one called a catechin. Catechins are 40 to 200 times more effective in seeking out and destroying free radicals than Vitamin A, C and E. These include four major polyphenols including epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), epicatechin gallate (ECG), epigallocatechin (EGC) and epicatechin (EC). Of these compounds EGCG is the most abundant in green tea and has generated the most interest. Scientific research has consistently shown that EGCG is a potent antioxidant, deactivating health-damaging free-radicals.* While these highly reactive and unstable compounds are generated in normal metabolic processes, they increase in number when we are exposed to environmental toxins, cigarette smoke, regular alcohol use or excessive sunlight. Even the emotional stress associated with our hectic, fast paced lives has been shown to disrupt normal physiological processes and tip the balance in favor of free radicals. Perhaps the most significant determinant of free radical activity is the aging process itself, which plays an important role in chronic disease. In promoting cardiovascular health EGCG has been shown to inhibit free-radical activity in the arteries (reducing oxidized low-density lipoprotein and soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule), and thus assists in coronary circulation.* Other studies have shown that ECGC has a benefit in normalizing blood glucose and protecting the pancreas from oxidative damage, as well as in boosting metabolism and burning fat.* Green tea catechins and ECGC in particular have also been shown to naturally support detoxification and the elimination of toxic substances from the body while protecting the liver.*
