Hm mm, you may be one of those people that do not like drinking tea so are considering taking green tea capsules instead. You may be wondering what the benefits of green tea extract are and if they are the same as the actual beverage? Okay, so let`s look at 5 benefits of this wonderful extract.
The tea I am talking about is the non fermented product from the camellia sinensis plant. The same plant, when the leaves are fermented provides oolong and black tea but the health benefits are reduced due to the fermentation. The leaves in green tea are steamed so that the healing components remain.
Compounds in green tea such as gallic acid, epigallocatechin gallate, epigallocatechin, epicatechin gallate and epicatechin are thought to be the reason for the many benefits it contains.
- This extract is thought to reduce cholesterol levels to a more acceptable level reducing the possibility of heart disease. Most of us these days tend to have higher cholesterol levels than what is healthy for us.
- Stomach disorders are also reduced. Also helps prevent headaches, vomiting and diarrhea. An easy way to help prevent these problems if you are susceptible to any of them.
- Green tea capsules contain antibacterial properties that are thought to reduce the bacteria that causes dental plaque. Reduced dental plaque helps reduce the number of dental cavities.
- Weight loss is another benefit. This is effective in combination with other products. The extract is thought to increase the effect of calorie burning.
- Another benefit includes sun damage and cancer from sunburn or any other environmental cause. This is probably due to the high antioxidant content such as EGCG. It also helps other solid tumor types of cancer.
Now that you know at least at least 5 benefits of green tea extract you might like to consider taking the extract in synergy with other quality products rather than just the green tea capsules to give you all the above benefits plus many,many more to achieve total balance and vitality.
