Green tea has been used for thousands of years by the Chinese as a medicine to treat digestion, head and body aches, improve well being and increase life expectancy. Green tea extract is bioflavonoid rich, and one of its main functions is to fight the free radicals in your body.
Green tea extracts contain a high level of polyphenol and are rich in EGCG which is an antioxidant that is more powerful than Vitamin E in fighting free radicals and pro-oxidants.
The EGCG in green tea extracts protects against digestive and respiratory infections, helps lower high cholesterol levels and blocks the actions of carcinogens that promote cancer.
Green tea extract is a common ingredient in many fat burners - it increases the body's metabolism. Most fat burners increase the heart rate, whereas green tea does not do this. Those that use green tea to diet, loose weight without the anxiety of pressure on the heart or side effects of fat burning supplements.
