Green Tea Extract 500mg EGCG

Green tea extract (Camellia sinensis) is standardized to 50% epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) – the most abundant and biologically active catechin. Each capsule provides 500mg extract delivering 250mg EGCG, plus naturally occurring caffeine (approx 30mg per capsule – less than half a cup of coffee). EGCG is a potent antioxidant (20x more effective than vitamin C at neutralizing peroxyl radicals) and has been studied for: fat oxidation (increases thermogenesis by 4-5%), weight management (modest BMI reduction over 12 weeks), neuroprotection (reduces amyloid-beta aggregation in Alzheimer’s models), and cardiovascular health (improves endothelial function). 90 capsules – three-month supply (one capsule twice daily). Take with meals to prevent nausea. Caution: Rare cases of hepatotoxicity reported with high-dose green tea extracts (≥800mg EGCG) on empty stomach – do not exceed recommended dose. Avoid if you have liver disease or drink alcohol heavily.
