What is EGCG in green tea?

EGCG (epigallocatechin gallate) is the most abundant and most studied catechin in green tea. It is a potent antioxidant that helps protect cells from oxidative damage caused by free radicals. EGCG is the primary reason green tea is so popular as a health supplement.

Does Swanson Green Tea contain caffeine?

Yes. Green tea leaf naturally contains a small amount of caffeine. The amount per capsule is typically much less than a cup of coffee, but if you are sensitive to caffeine or take it in the evening, it is worth being mindful of this. Consult your healthcare professional if you have any concerns.

How many capsules should I take per day?

The recommended dose is one capsule per day taken with food and water, or as directed by your healthcare professional. Each capsule contains 500 mg of green tea leaf. The bottle contains 100 capsules, providing over three months supply.

Is taking green tea capsules the same as drinking green tea?

Green tea capsules provide the naturally occurring active compounds found in green tea leaf, particularly catechins and EGCG, in a convenient format. Capsules are a practical option for people who want the benefits without drinking multiple cups per day.
