Green tea has been consumed for thousands of years for its many health benefits. Green tea extract (GTE) is green tea in its concentrated form. Like green tea, GTE is packed with antioxidants like epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), which can support our bodies by preventing cellular deterioration from oxidative damage. This can go on to benefit the body in many ways. 

Weight loss & metabolic health:

If you’re looking for a way to increase the amount of calories you burn, GTE has you covered. Studies show that GTE regulates insulin sensitivity and blood sugar tolerance while decreasing hemoglobin A1C and blood sugar levels. This directly impacts metabolic health, which can impact weight loss management.

Skin health:

Supplementing with GTE has been shown to have anti-aging benefits and help with acne due to the anti-inflammatory properties of EGCG. When it comes to acne-prone skin, EGCG lowers sebum excretion in the skin which helps reduce oil production. 

Cognitive health:

Antioxidants found in GTE have been shown to protect brain cells from oxidative stress caused by the presence of heavy metals like iron and copper in the brain. Studies show that these antioxidants increase parieto-frontal connectivity in the brain resulting in increased cognitive functions like working memory, improved attention, and better focus.

Cardiovascular support:

Oxidative stress increases fat buildup in our blood, which can promote inflammation in the arteries and affect blood pressure. Antioxidants like EGCG have been shown to help decrease this inflammation and reduce blood pressure while aiding in fat absorption in cells. 

Exercise performance & recovery:

GTE has antioxidant properties that reduce cellular damage and muscle fatigue associated with oxidative stress that naturally occurs with regular exercise.

CanPrev’s Green Tea EGCG is an excellent source of antioxidants that help protect against oxidative damage. Its highly potent dose of 500mg per capsule delivers a high concentration of 50% EGCG to maximize health benefits with as little caffeine as a single cup of decaf coffee per capsule.
