 Green Tea Elite with EGCG Weight Loss, Heart and Brain Health For prevention of heart disease, possibly Alzheimer’s and death take 1-2 daily For weight loss take 2 daily. May increase to two capsules twice daily. Green Tea Here is an example of a first rate herb that can reduce the risk of a heart attack by 44% and has a marked anticancer effect. In one study, moderate to heavy consumers of green tea markedly reduced the mortality due to heart attacks. Heavy consumption was defined as drinking more than 14 cups per week and moderate consumption equated to less than 14 cups per week. I prefer green tea capsules since it beats drinking multiple cups of green tea daily. Not all green capsules are alike. Some capsules only contain the equivalent of 1 cup of green tea, while other preparations contain more. Studies in Japan demonstrate low mortality rates from cancer, especially in people who consumed 10 or more cups of green tea per day. Death rate and heart disease were reduced by 25% in a large prospective Japanese trial. Green tea contains powerful antioxidants called polyphenols. Polyphenols are also found in virgin olive oil...chocolate... red wine...and other foods thought to have extra health benefits. Green tea capsules contain an important ingredient called EGCG. This is a specific polyphenol that inhibits growth of blood vessels into a tumor and may even hinder metastases (spread of a tumor to distant sites in the body). People who drink a lot of green tea or coffee seem to have a lower risk of developing type 2 diabetes. In addition to addressing the number one and number two causes of death in the USA (heart attacks and cancer respectively), green tea may also help you to lose weight. It seems to possess thermogenic properties and promotes the breakdown of fats by a mechanism unrelated to its caffeine content. You will need to take more green tea to lose weight. One small study showed a 5% weight loss on green tea. Now the USF team provides the first evidence that EGCG decreases production of the Alzheimer's-related protein, beta-amyloid, which can accumulate abnormally in the brain and lead to nerve damage and memory loss.. EGCG appears to block the initial process by which the Alzheimer's-related protein is formed in brain cells. After treating Alzheimer's mice for several months with daily injections of pure EGCG, the researchers observed a 54% decrease of brain-clogging Alzheimer's plaques. Wow! This is preliminary but exciting. This is a terrific herb and I prefer the decaffeinated variety. More Images  More info...Sizes and Descriptions
