Asian cultures have done much to popularize green tea
(Camellia sinensis). But now the rest of the world sings its
praises. Green tea is rich in bioflavonoids, compounds that help
fight damaging free radicals. One class of bioflavonoids,
polyphenols, is especially abundant in this herb. Specifically,
the catechins (polyphenols with multiple linked ring-like
structures) have extraordinary antioxidant ability.
Recent scientific studies illuminate green tea's benefits
for both the immune and circulatory systems. An important
catechin, epigallocatechin gallate (also called EGCG), has been
shown to be over 200 times more powerful than vitamin E in
neutralizing free radicals that attack lipids in the brain. Green
tea extract also possesses properties that support the immune
system, while its platelet-aggregation-reducing ability and its
cholesterol-normalizing properties make it a boon to the
circulatory system. And green tea may help protect the digestive
and respiratory systems.
Now you can get all of these health benefits in NSP Green Tea
Extract's convenient, go-anywhere capsule. And our green tea
