Fushi Green Tea Ext/Matcha High/S Veg Caps [60s]

Fushi Wellbeing Fushi Green Tea Extract & Matcha High Strength Veg Caps 60s
Green tea is touted as a health drink and rightly so, as it has numerous health and beauty benefits. The three main varieties of tea green, oolong and black, all come from the same plant, called Camellia Sinensis. The difference is in the level of fermentation. Green tea is not fermented at all, only steamed, which makes it the most health promoting of the three. Oolong tea is partly fermented, and black tea is fully fermented. Fermentation reduces the antioxidant content in tea and increases caffeine concentration. Green tea contains the most antioxidants, while black tea has 23 times more caffeine than green tea.

The Matcha green tea is a special type of tea, where the Camellia plants are grown and harvested in shade. This results in higher levels of chlorophyll and the amino acid Ltheanine. Fushi’s Green Tea & Matcha is the first innovative supplement on the market, combining a concentrated green tea extract with pure Matcha powder for the most effective health benefits.

The main bioactive compounds in green tea may help improve your health and wellbeing, as well as make you feel and look younger. The antioxidant polyphenols, such as flavonoids and catechins in green tea help to scavenge free radicals, which can damage our cells and cause havoc in the body. Free radicals are thought to be one of the main players in ageing. The antioxidants in green tea can help to neutralise the free radical compounds and have an important role in improving wellbeing.

Epigallocatechin Gallate (EGCG) is the most potent active antioxidant component in green tea, that can help reduce oxidative damage to body cells and tissues. Most importantly, it is exclusively found only in green tea as there is no fermentation which affects the compound. Oolong and black teas do not contain this powerful antioxidant.
