Scientists believe antioxidants, such as EGCg, protect and repair cells from damage and may provide natural benefits for heart health, weight control and oral care (teeth and breath).
Clinical Studies
The powerful antioxidant properties of catechins, primarily EGCg, are widely demonstrated in animal and human research studies. In addition, studies show that the EGCg in green tea also enhances metabolism, increases fat oxidation and aids weight management. Some results have indicated that body weight and BMI were significantly decreased by consumption of EGCg in dosages of 150 – 300 mg per day.
