NOW Green Tea Extract

The benefits of green tea extract have been played up over the last few years and there is growing evidence to indicate that this is for good reason. Green tea is made from the leaves of Camellia sinensis and has been consumed in China and other Asian countries for centuries. Modern green tea extracts take all or some of the beneficial flavanoids (kaempferol, quercetin, and myricetin) and polyphenols (epigallocatechin gallate, epigallocatechin, epicatechin gallate and epicatechin) and provide them in convenient pill or capsule form. NOW Foods produces a very affordable EGCg green tea extract in capsule form.
