Product Description

Green Tea- embodiment for vitality, health and long life
The history of this unique tea goes back to a long tradition and extends over a period of more than 5000 years. The tea has been appreciated already very early in China and Japan as a very vitalizing and constitutional drink. As master of the medicine Shen-Nung, the Emperor of China, once praised the tea as appropriate remedy against tiredness and listlessness. Green Tea is known in its homeland China as embodiment for vitality, health and long life. The Green Tea Extract is a rich source of natural bioactive phytochemical substances- Polyphenols (Catechines, Flavonoids, Phenolic acids) and Methylxanthines (Caffeine, Theophylline, Theobromine). The extract also contains many vitamins and minerals and enjoys increasing popularity in the industrialised countries, too, especially because of its constitutional features.

Polyphenols- powerful secondary plant compounds
The real healthy effect of the Green tea is based on the group of Polyphenols. Polyphenols are aromatic compounds and are among the secondary plant compounds. Studies show an inhibited growth of cancer cells in the mammary gland, lung, skin, bowel and prostate. (Lansky 2007) You protect body cells against free radicals and decelerate the cell oxidation. They avoid fat deposits in the arteries and prevent therefore arteriosclerosis. So the thickness of the interior vessel wall at patients with arteriosclerosis has been reduced after a usage of a pomegranate preparation throughout a year by 30%. (Aviram 2004) Furthermore the Vanderbild University Medical Center was able to show in a study that with a regularly fruit juice consumption the risk for an Alzheimer’s disease can be decreased by 76%. For that the positive effect of the Polyphenols holds responsible as well. Simultaneously Polyphenols can bind themselves to digestive enzymes and reduce the nutrient uptake in the bowel that way. Polyphenols also inhibit a bacterium species which is conducive to the building of plaque and are therefore preventively applicable against caries.

Catechines support the effective lipometabolism
Catechines as ingredients for food – especially in Green Tea- come more and more to the Science’ fore. 2003 a research with Asians showed the connection between the consumption of Green Tea and a minor body fat resp. a minor abdominal girth. Currently medical studies are done with the western population, whose results are expected midyear 2008. Inspired by the cognitions, that Catechines can reduce body fat, especially visceral fat, the popularity of Green Tea products increases considerably.

Which advantages has Green Tea Extract for the athlete?
Scientists assume that substances like e.g. the Green Tea’s Catechine-Polyphenol EGCG can positively support the lipometabolism. Also interesting is that the antioxidant effect of the Polyphenols is especially very important for very active people. The demand of Antioxidants is strongly increased because every kind of sports increases the building of free radicals. Here the cell ageing and a loss of power can be decisive prevented. Green Tea extract is therefore not only very healthy, it supports the effective lipometabolism and increases therefore endurance and efficiency.
