1. Cancer prevention
This powerful antioxidant fights off the free radicals in your body, prevent cell mutations that may cause cancer.
With so many pollutants out there and the ever increasing threat of cancer, drinking green tea on a daily basis has proven to be effective in preventing (brain, prostate, cervical and bladder) cancer and improving cellular health.
2. Cardiovascular health
EGCG is an anti-inflammatory compound. This means it prevents the heart arteries from becoming swollen and clogged and it lower blood pressure.
With a lower blood pressure, cholesterol levels will be lower and blood circulation better.
Studies have shown in order to maintain cardiovascular health you should drink 5-6 cups per day containing 200-300 mg of EGCG.
3. Neuronal disorders and anxiety
Huntington’s disease, a progressive neurodegenerative disorder has been proven to respond to EGCG if it is introduced at an early stage.
The onset and progression of this disease has been delayed by 3-gallate as studies have demonstrated.
Studies on animals have also proven the positive effect of this substance on anxiety.
Behavioral tests on mice showed that EGCG has an amnesic and anxiolytic effect, much as benzodiazepine drugs.
4. Diabetes
Researches from the University of Dundee, Scotland have proven the insulin-like properties of epigallocatechin gallate (it lowers glucose preventing renal injury).
5. Protection of the skin
EGCG provides a broad-spectrum protection against UV light and immune system dysfunctions of the skin.
It has been proven that although it does not block UV rays, it works by reducing inflammation and quenching free radicals.
It is also believed that it helps prevent skin cancers resulting from the exposure to sun radiation.
6. Weight loss
Studies suggest that 3-gallate boosts the metabolism and helps burn fat. It lowers the amount of fat stored on the body and makes it easier to burn fat for “fuel”. EGCG is a powerful stimulator of thermogenesis, the process through which fat is burned off your body, central to weight loss.
Thermogenesis is the generation of heat caused by a series of chemical reactions through which the fat molecules are burned producing carbon and water. By stimulating this process, EGCG contributes to the body’s caloric output.
I'm a nutrition student and am in the middle of writing a report/scouring the journals for information on EGCG. Current research shows that it is best taken first thing in the morning, after fasting all night, with 1000 mg of high quality fish oil from salmon, 200 mg of ascorbic acid (vitamin c) and AWAY from protein.
I love this product because it's incredibly cheap, has a high amount of EGCG and some vitamin C, though I also take it with citrus bioflavanoids for some extra C. Sometimes I'll take it at the same time I'm eating an orange or a little fat, but always away from protein.
If it makes you nauseous, start with one pill and some fruit. Rarely do I take more than one at a time. Side note: it's likely the small amount of caffeine that's responsible for the nausea. If you tolerate caffeine/black coffee or tea well, you're unlikely to have issues with this.
