Tea tree (Camellia sinensis) is a shrub or small arbor of the genus Camellia in the Camellia family. Green tea is made from unfermented new leaves or buds of tea trees through multiple processes. Green tea retains the tea polyphenols, catechins, chlorophyll, caffeine, amino acids, vitamins and other nutrients in the fresh leaves. Drinking green tea regularly can prevent cancer, lower fat, lose weight, and reduce the nicotine damage suffered by smokers.
Green Tea Extract is a standardized phytochemical derived from Camellia sinensis leaves via aqueous or solvent extraction. It is primarily composed of polyphenols, specifically catechins like EGCG. Molecular formula: C22H18O11; CAS No.: 84650-60-2.
High-dose intake may cause hepatotoxicity; strictly adhere to regulatory limits (e.g., EFSA). Store in cool, dry conditions below 25°C away from direct light to prevent oxidation and maintain potency.
