Product Introduction
Green tea catechins have shown a number of beneficial effects, modern research and scientific data demonstrates that the beneficial effects of green tea are largely due to its main catechin, Epigallocatechin Gallate (EGCG). EGCG makes up about 30%-50% of the total catechin content and has an antioxidant activity about 25-100 times more potent than Vitamin C and E. The EGCG90%, 95% is a pure and defined substance delivering all the healthful benefits associated with green tea, which provides the best of green tea in its purest form, is highly compatible with a broad range of foods, beverages and dietary supplements. It is white to a pale pink powder, has little impact on the taste of your product.

What is EGCG?
(-)- Table epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) is an ingredient extracted from Chinese green tea, which is the main activity of green tea and water-soluble ingredients, is the highest content of catechins in the components , it accounts for 10-15% of the total green tea catechins. Catechins, including EGCG, EGC, ECG, EC, GCG, etc., in which antioxidant activity followed by EC
Where will be EGCG used to?
1. In the medical care that has anti-cancer and other diseases and strengthening the immune system functions Anti-tumor effect of EGCG has been recognized by relevant researchers invarious countries, has been listed and studied as a potential new drugs for anti-cancer in China, America and many other countries. A large number of clinical experiments prove that the effect of EGCG in the treatment of many types of cancer is no less than Taxol, and its toxicity is far lower than that of Taxol. In particular, applied to the study of skin cancer is more coverage, and now in clinical stages. It has great development value to treat cancer, and it can be an effective, non-toxic an ideal drug.
Pharmacological effects of EGCG:
• Inhibit tumor cell invading and proliferating
• Adjusting metabolic processes of the tumor triggered objects
• Regulation of carcinogen metabolizing enzymes
• Inhibits covalent coupling of cancer-causing genes and DNA
• Inhibition of tumor cell proliferation
• Inhibition of nitrosation process
Anti-oxidation, scavenging free radicals, anti-mutagenic effect observably, can enhance the immune system, inhibit the growth of liver fat and cholesterol, suppress tumor growth, also have a strong inhibitory effect on dysentery, typhoid, staphylococcus aureus and other bacteria.
EGCG can also anti-aging, Lower blood lipid, improve low-density lipoprotein, prevent atherosclerosis, enhance the role of the immune and other functions. And it can inhibit the proliferation of glomerular cell membrane and improve renal function; inhibited hyaluronidase effectively, reducing inflammation and allergy.
2. In household chemicals field, it can be made to special features of the shelf-life agents, skin-care agent. At room temperature, low concentrations of EGCG has functions as strong anti-oxidation, elimination of free radicals, bactericidal, Eradicate Odor and so on. So you can add a small amount of EGCG to prevent the deterioration of cosmetics. EGCG has following characteristics as natural cosmetic raw materials compares with other biochemical materials biochemical: molecular weight is small, easily absorbed by human skin, with good transdermal absorption properties; activity is extremely stable, the changes in temperature affect the activity little; in acidic and closed light conditions, the activity of EGCG remain unchanged for a long time; safe and reliable by the relevant professional body examinations, toxicological tests showed determination and micronucleus is a non-toxic, non-irritating substances, in line with quality standards for cosmetic products; dosage is small, the role is strong; have a strong antioxidant activity, its antioxidant capacity is 2-4 times the DHA and BHT, that is, effective at low concentrations.
• The role of EGCG in cosmetics could be summarized as follows:
• The role of wrinkle-free beauty
• The role of sunscreen and anti-blotch
• To lift heavy metal poisoning effect
• Anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory effect
• To promote the role of skin microcirculation
• Anti-skin cancer
