Green Tea Extract with EGCG + Vitamin C, 120 Vegetarian Capsules (Zenwise Health) – Ingredients
- Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid)
- Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid) (C6H8O6)
Vitamin C protects the immune system, reduces the severity of allergic reactions and helps to fight off infections. Vitamin C contributes to immune defense by supporting various cellular functions of both the innate and adaptive immune system. Vitamin C supports epithelial barrier function against pathogens and promotes the oxidant scavenging activity of the skin, thereby potentially protecting against environmental oxidative stress. Vitamin C deficiency results in impaired immunity and higher susceptibility to infections. Vitamin C improves immune function, and facilitates enteral uptake of nonheme iron, reduction of folic acid intermediates and synthesis of collagen (wound healing), cortisol, catecholamines and carnitine. Vitamin C depletion may occur scurvy, long-term complications such as increase cardiovascular and neoplasic risks or cataract. Like all 8 B vitamins, vitamin C aids in protein metabolism. This means it not only provides your body with necessary proteins, but does so while blocking the synthesis of proteins known to cause infection and inflammation. That means if you go to the gym often, vitamin C can make it easier for you to recover after training.

- Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid) (C6H8O6)
- Green Tea (Camellia Sinensis)
Tea possesses significant antioxidative, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, anticarcinogenic, antihypertensive, neuroprotective, cholesterol-lowering, and thermogenic properties. Removes pathogens, Anticoagulant effect, Contains up to 70% catechins. Fat can’t be burned until it’s broken down in your fat cells and moved to your bloodstream, but the compounds in green tea can boost your fat burning hormones.Norepinephrine is a chemical that instructs fat cells to break down fat. EGCG, the main antioxidant found in green tea, inhibits an enzyme responsible for breaking down norepinephrine. This results in an increase in norepinephrine, which can increase the amount of fat your body breaks down.It is even thought that caffeine and EGCG, both of which occur naturally in green tea, work together because caffeine works to the same effect as EGCG. Green tea extract stimulates the oxidation of fatty acids, supports thermogenesis of the body, and is a powerful antioxidant that protects against the negative effects of free radicals. Green tea is generally beneficial in supporting a healthy metabolism and your overall health. Species: Camellia Sinensis,

Researchers have determined the potent ability of epigallocatechin gallate compounds (EGCG) found in green tea can actually help prevent reductions in testosterone levels by blocking the breakdown process of testosterone into harmful DHT.
