Caffeine is extracted from coffee and tea during the process of decaffeination. Caffeine Anhydrous can be produced from dimethyl urea and malonic acid. It stimulates the central nervous system, enhancing the focus, concentration, and alertness, and warding off drowsiness. It is a mild diuretic and can also increase the metabolism. It increases the energy level and reduces fatigue. Aside from increasing mental alertness, it also helps in maximizing weight loss training. It stimulates the metabolism that helps the body to burn fat faster and uses the fat as energy. It also provides physical energy and delays the onset of fatigue.

Epicatechin Gallate is a type of flavonoid normally extracted from green tea and buckwheat. It is a flavan-3-ol with chemical formula C22H18O10 and Mol. Mass 442.37 g/mol. Research shows that Catechins including Epicatechin gallate have anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and free radical scavenging properties. Its effects are being studied on scar formation which showed a significant increase in blood vessel formation, inducible nitric oxide synthase and cyclooxygenase-2.. It also indicated a decrease in arginase-I activity and protein levels, which improved scars. The wound healing properties of Epicatechin gallate are also being studied on rats; preliminary research shows encouraging results.

Epichtechin

Epigallocatechin or gallocatechol is a flavanol which are a class of flavanoids. Its basic structure is composed of the 2-phenyl-3, 4-dihydro-2H-chromen-3-ol skeleton. This chemical occurs naturally and is found in green tea and fruits like the pomegranate and persimmon. It is an antioxidant. The chemical interacts with the cannabinoid receptors at a moderate level. These receptors have important implications in human physiology. This means that their activation generates health benefits. Flavanols also act to protect against sunburns, increase capillary blood flow, decrease blood pressure and keep the walls of the arteries in a relaxed condition. The chemical may also act as a building block for other important chemical compounds like proanthocyanidins.

Epigallocatechin Gallate (EGCG) is among the major catechins found in green tea. It belongs to the class flavan 3 ol of flavonoids, and is polyphenolic matter. Black tea also contains EGCG but in lower quantities. Epigallocatechin gallate makes up about 30% of dry weight of the green tea leaves. EGCG is the most powerful antioxidant present in green tea. It helps to burn fat, increase metabolism, and lower the storage of fat. Researches show that EGCG can be beneficial in curing many types of cancers, like bladder, cervical, prostate, and brain cancer. It also builds up the immune system and protects the body from many diseases.

Green Tea Extract, a bioflavonoid rich, potent extract used primarily for fighting free radicals. It contains a high content of polyphenols, which are a class of bioflavonoids. Green tea extract contains a potent antioxidant, EGCG, which is over 200 times more powerful than vitamin E in neutralizing the pro-oxidants and free radicals that attack lipids in the brain. Green tea extract helps with thermogenesis and aids in the metabolism of fat. Green Tea has been used for years as a powerful antioxidant, it may also be helpful in shedding fat. The most obvious benefit to dieters is that it works without increasing the heart rate most often found in diet aids. The increased heart rate leaves dieters jittery and eventually, most dieters stop using the supplement and gain weight back. Now through using green tea extract, dieters get the weight loss benefits without any of the jittery effects, especially in obese individuals with hypertension and other cardiovascular complications.
