What is Green Tea Powdered Extract 50% polyphenols

Green Tea P.E. 50% polyphenols is a pure extract of green tea that is tested to contain 50% (or more) polyphenols, powerful antioxidants which protect cells from damage.

Green Tea P.E. 50% polyphenols:
  • contain powerful antioxidants
  • has properties that support the health of human cells
  • supports the immune system
Scientific Name: Camellia sinensis

Benefits of Green Tea P.E. 50% polyphenols

Green tea differs from black tea and oolong tea in that it is not fermented. Even though all three teas are from the same plant, the difference in the way they are prepared has an impact on the way each is used.

Because it is not fermented, green tea still retains its polyphenols, natural antioxidants. Antioxidants protect the body from free-radical compounds that destroy healthy cells.

The lighter processing method employed in producing green tea leaves leaves the polyphenols (including powerful antioxidants proanthocyanidin and catechin) intact.

In clinical studies, it has been demonstrated that polyphenols provide more antioxidant protection than vitamin E or vitamin C. Polyphenols also improve the performance of the body’s own natural antioxidant enzymes, including glutathione, a tripeptide that acts to minimize inflammation and protects cartilage.

Green tea contains gallocatechol or epigallocatechin (EGCG), a chemical compound that belongs to a group of compounds known as flavan-3-ol. Catechin is another of the flavon-3-ol group. Gallocatechin is present in bananas, persimmons and pomegranates as well as in green tea. This compound binds to a class of cell membrane receptors that acts in the central nervous system and in the immune system and hematopoietic cells. This action may explain why green tea has become popular as a health aid.

Due to this action on the central nervous system, green tea may enhance mental alertness and thinking.

Similarly, as this compound acts on certain receptors that are expressed on T-cells of the immune system and on macrophages and B cells, green tea may play a role in supporting the body's immune system. Numerous studies have been conducted researching the potential of green tea as an anticarcinogen.

Potential Side Effects and Cautions:

Green tea is considered "likely safe" for most adults according to the National Institute of Health. Alertness, over-stimulation, insomnia, are possible side effects from taking large amounts. Prolonged high intake of EGCG may cause liver or kidney damage.
Who should not take Green Tea P.E 50% polyphenols? Warning: EGCG may cause neural tube defects if taken during pregnancy. This product is not intended for use by those with a serious medical condition or pregnant or lactating women. Consult your physician before use.

Suggested Use: How should I take it?

As a dietary supplement, take 500 mg (3/16 tsp) one to two times daily. DO NOT use more than more than 1000 mg in a day. Not intended for use for longer than three months.

Using the volumetric chart you will see that 1/16 teaspoon is equal to 161 milligrams (mg), so 3/32 tsp is equal to 432 mg. A serving of 1/4 teaspoon equals 483 mg, so a serving of 1/4 tsp is about 500 mg.

Due to the fact that many of our customers have individual needs, we do not include a "scoop" in your package. For your convenience, we offer a selection of durable measuring spoons. To accurately measure this powder, you may use a digital gram scale. (PureBulk offers several scales of varying milligram ranges.)
