EGCG
Green Tea Benefits--Green tea contains antioxidations, polyphenols, theanine, as well as a wide variety
of vitamins and minerals. Let's take a closer look at some of
these compounds.......
Polyphenols--Polyphenols are a class of phytochemicals found in
high concentrations in green tea, and have been associated with
heart disease and cancer prevention. The slight astrigent,
bitter taste of green tea is attributed to polyphenols.
Catechins--Catechins are a category of polyphenols. In green tea,
catechins are present in significant quantities, more
specifically; epicatechin(EC), epigallocatechin(EGC),
epicatechin gallate(ECG) and epigallocatechin gallate(EGCG).
EGCG makes up about 10-50% of the total catechin content and
appears to be the most powerful of the catechins? With
antioxidant activity about 25-100 times more potent then
vitamins C and E. A cup of green tea may provide 10-40mg of
polyphenols and has antioxidant activity greater then a serving
of broccoli, spinach, carrots or strawberries.
