Product Overview
Epigallocatechin Gallate (EGCG) is the most abundant and biologically active catechin found in green tea (Camellia sinensis). Among the four major catechins in green tea (EGCG, EGC, ECG, and EC), EGCG is the most potent, with extensive research supporting its antioxidant, metabolic, thermogenic, and cell-protective properties.
Our EGCG 95% is produced from premium green tea leaves using a proprietary extraction and purification process that achieves pharmaceutical-grade purity while preserving the natural molecular structure. The result is a light-colored, low-odor powder suitable for incorporation into capsules, tablets, beverages, and functional foods without affecting taste or appearance.
