Benefits and effects

• Antioxidant Protection: EGCG is known for its ability to neutralize free radicals and protect cells from oxidative stress, which can reduce the risk of chronic diseases and signs of aging.
• Supports heart health: EGCG may help reduce LDL cholesterol and blood pressure while supporting healthy cardiovascular function.
• Regulates blood sugar levels: Contributes to improved insulin response and stabilization of blood sugar levels, which may be beneficial for people with diabetes or insulin resistance.
• Protects the liver: Reduces the risk of liver damage and supports healthy liver function by protecting cells from toxins and oxidative damage.
• Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) Support: EGCG's anti-inflammatory properties can relieve symptoms of Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis.
• Promotes joint health: Reduces inflammation that can lead to joint diseases such as osteoarthritis.
• Weight Loss Support: Can contribute to increased metabolism and fat burning, which makes it a good choice for those who want to improve their body composition.
• Potential cancer prevention properties: EGCG has shown promising results in studies investigating its ability to inhibit cancer cell growth and induce cell death in cancer cells.

How does EGCG work?
EGCG affects the body's signaling pathways that regulate inflammation, cell survival and blood vessel growth in tumors. It can inhibit the enzyme telomerase and reduce the activity of DNMTs, which can affect tumor development.
