Product Description.
Like green tea, green tea extract is a great source of antioxidants. These have been credited with a range of health benefits, from promoting heart, liver and brain health to improving your skin and even reducing the risk of diseases. What's more, many studies have looked at green tea extract's ability to aid weight loss. In fact, many weight loss products list it as a key ingredient.
Benefits of Green Tea Extract:
High in Antioxidants.
The health benefits of green tea extract are mostly due to its high antioxidant content. Antioxidants can help reduce oxidative stress by fighting cell damage caused by free radicals. This cell damage is associated with aging and several diseases. Polyphenol antioxidants called catechins comprise the majority of green tea extract's antioxidant content. Among the catechins in green tea, epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) is the most researched and thought to provide the most health benefits. Studies have shown that green tea extract increases the antioxidant capacity of the body and protects against oxidative stress. For example, one study had 35 obese people take 870 mg of green tea extract for eight weeks. Their blood antioxidant capacity increased from 1.2 to 2.5 μmol/L, on average. Green tea extract boosts antioxidant capacity, which may help prevent various health problems caused by oxidative stress.
Promote Heart Health.
Oxidative stress increases fat buildup in the blood, which promotes inflammation in the arteries and leads to high blood pressure. Fortunately, the antioxidants in green tea extract can decrease inflammation and help reduce blood pressure. They can also inhibit fat absorption in cells, helping reduce blood fat levels. One study had 56 obese people with high blood pressure take 379 mg of green tea extract daily for three months. They showed a significant decrease in blood pressure, compared to the placebo group. Additionally, they experienced significant reductions in blood fat levels, including lower triglycerides and total and LDL cholesterol.
Neuroprotective Properties.
The antioxidants in green tea extract, especially EGCG, have been shown to protect brain cells from oxidative stress. This protection can help reduce brain damage that could lead to mental decline and brain diseases like Parkinson's, Alzheimer's and dementia. Furthermore, green tea extract can decrease the action of heavy metals like iron and copper, both of which can damage brain cells. It's also been shown to help memory by enhancing the connection between different parts of the brain. One study had 12 people drink a soft drink containing 27.5 grams of green tea extract or a placebo. Then, while the participants worked on memory tests, brain images were obtained to assess brain function. The green tea extract group showed an increase in brain function and improved task performance, compared to the placebo group.
Aids Weight Loss.
Green tea extract is rich in catechins, and it contains a decent amount of caffeine. Interestingly, it seems that this combination of ingredients is responsible for its weight loss properties. Both catechins and caffeine have been shown to assist in weight loss by regulating the hormones that can enhance thermogenesis. Thermogenesis is the process by which your body burns calories to digest food and produce heat. Green tea has been shown to boost this process by making your body more effective at burning calories, which can lead to weight loss. One study had 14 people take a capsule containing a mixture of caffeine, EGCG from green tea and guarana extract before each meal. It then examined the effect on calorie burning. It found that the participants burned 179 more calories, on average, in the following 24 hours.
Benefit Liver Function.
The catechins in green tea extract may also help reduce inflammation caused by some liver diseases like non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). One study gave 80 participants with NAFLD either 500 mg of green tea extract or a placebo daily for 90 days. The green tea extract group showed significant reductions in liver enzyme levels, which is an indication of improved liver health.
Help Lower Blood Sugar.
The catechins in green tea, especially EGCG, have been shown to enhance insulin sensitivity and regulate the production of blood sugar, both of which can lower blood sugar levels. A study gave 14 healthy people a sugary substance and 1.5 grams of green tea or a placebo. The green tea group experienced better blood sugar tolerance after 30 minutes, and continued to show better results, compared to the placebo group.
May Improve Skin Health.
Whether taken as a supplement or applied to the skin, green tea extract has been shown to improve skin health. A large review demonstrated that when applied to the skin, green tea extract can help treat a variety of skin problems, such as dermatitis, rosacea and warts. Also, as a supplement, it has been shown to help with skin aging and acne. For example, a study showed that consuming 1,500 mg of green tea extract daily for four weeks resulted in significant reductions in red skin bumps caused by acne. Moreover, both supplements and the topical application of green tea extract seem to help prevent skin conditions like loss of skin elasticity, inflammation, premature aging and cancer caused by exposure to UV rays.
The Bottom Line.
Thanks to its high antioxidant content, green tea extract has been shown to help improve health and body composition. Many studies have shown that green tea extract can promote weight loss, blood sugar regulation, disease prevention and exercise recovery. It can also help keep your skin and liver healthy, reduce blood fat levels, regulate blood pressure and improve brain health. It can be consumed in capsule, liquid or powder form. The recommended dose is 250-500 mg a day, and it is best taken with food. Whether you want to improve your general health or decrease your risk of disease, green tea extract is an easy way to add health-boosting antioxidants to your diet.
