Green tea is one of the most popular herbal supplements in the
world. It has been used for thousands of years, especially by Asian
cultures for its many health benefits. These benefits include
cholesterol reduction, weight loss, increased immune function and a
healthy cardiovascular system.
Green
tea leaf is rich in catechin polyphenols including EGCG - a powerful
antioxidant. Research indicates that EGCG may be beneficial for heart
and circulatory health. The effects of Green Tea and EGCG have been
studied extensively at the Mayo clinic.
There
are many green tea extracts, but they are not all equal. The best green
tea products will contain the optimal level of 50% naturally occurring
catechins. Vitabase Green Tea extract is produced by a European
phytopharmaceutical company and is manufactured under strict European
quality control standards without the use of harsh solvents.
Like
all European herbal extracts, the extraction of our green tea extract
is regulated to the same high standards as over-the-counter drugs. It
is meticulously extracted to provide the optimal level of 50% natural
occurring catechins.
Green
tea is also commonly used in diet pills because of its ability to raise
the metabolism and burn fat. In November 1999, the American Journal of
Clinical Nutrition published the results of a study at the University
of Geneva in Switzerland. Researchers there found that men who were
given a combination of caffeine and green tea extract burned more
calories than those given only caffeine or a placebo.
Vitabase has an outstanding weight loss formula called Healthy Weight Formula, which contains green tea and other powerful ingredients.
