Green tea polyphenols are members of flavonoids. Catechins found in green tea have been shown to provide a number of health-promoting benefits: - Catechins are antioxidants with the ability to scavenge reactive oxygen species such as superoxide and the hydroxyl and peroxyl radical
- Catechins have fluid stabilizing properties
- Catechins may promote weight loss
- Green tea can boost the effectiveness of enzymatic phase II detoxification
- Catechins appear to help maintain healthy cell proliferation
- Helps maintain healthy blood cholesterol & triglyceride levels already within normal range
- Enhances immune function
The active constituents in green tea are polyphenols, with an antioxidant called epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) being the most powerful. The antioxidant activity of EGCG is about 25-100 times more potent than vitamins C and E. One cup of green tea may provide 10-40 mg of polyphenols and has antioxidant effects that are greater than a serving of broccoli, spinach, carrots, or strawberries.
