Uses And Benefits
Clinical trials are currently being conducted on epigallocatechin Gallate because of its potential as a treatment for a variety of diseases and conditions. It is an antioxidant. It has antiviral properties, as well as antifungal and antibacterial ones. After 12 weeks, obese individuals who drank green tea with up to 460 mg of epigallocatechin galate per day saw significant weight loss. Oxidative Stress plays a significant role in the development and progression of many health issues. Heart disease, fatty liver, cancers and premature aging are all examples. Epigallocatechin Gallate is known to have powerful antioxidant properties. It may therefore reduce oxidative stresses that can cause these conditions.
Testing is also underway for new anticancer therapies that combine this catechin with conventional chemotherapy. In animal experiments, mice treated with epigallocatechin galate and exposed to smoke for 12 weeks showed fewer cellular changes than those who did not receive treatment. This compound is also believed to help prevent the brain damage caused neurodegenerative disease. Alzheimer’s is one of them.
