EGCG 500 mg – natural support for heart, metabolism and daily vitality
Green, white and black tea are made from the dried leaves of Camellia sinensis – a perennial evergreen shrub. About 30-40% of the dry weight of Camellia sinensis tea leaves is made up of catechins, which are among the compounds with antioxidant potential. The four main tea catechins are epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), epigallocatechin (EGC), epicatechin gallate (ECG) and epicatechin (EC). Of these, EGCG is the best recognized catechin in supplementation.
What makes EGCG stand out in a daily routine?
- supports cellular protection against oxidative stress
- fits into a routine targeting overall cardiovascular, brain and cardiovascular health
- supports overall metabolism and daily form
- can be part of a routine to support weight control (in conjunction with diet and lifestyle)
- a valued ingredient in supplementation for active people and those working under heavy load
Combined with forskolin, EGCG is sometimes chosen in routines targeting body shape and metabolism, especially by people who want to get in shape before the summer season.
EGCG is a green tea catechin widely reported in the scientific literature in terms of antioxidant activity. Studies analyze its association with cell protection against oxidative stress and with selected metabolic and systemic markers. The results depend on the study model, population and methodology.
Publications also report analyses of green tea intake and selected parameters related to body condition, but interpretation of these data requires caution and is not a guarantee of a specific effect with supplementation.
Green tea and EGCG – areas of scientific interest
- Analyses of the relationship between EGCG and cellular protection against oxidative stress and the influence of environmental and lifestyle factors.
- Studies of the role of EGCG in the context of intestinal microbial balance and overall digestive well-being.
- Evaluation of the relationship between EGCG and selected metabolic parameters, including markers related to lipid metabolism.
- Analyses of the effects of EGCG on selected systemic markers in experimental studies.
- Studies of antioxidant potential and its relevance to daily body condition.
- Publications on general joint and tissue comfort in the context of lifestyle and nutrition.
EGCG is an ingredient often chosen by people who are looking for modern, plant-based support for daily vitality, metabolism and body balance.
