Tegreen 97® (30 Capsules)

Description

Green Tea Can Help You Lose Fat, Especially Harmful Abdominal Fat. When it comes to actual pounds lost, the effects of green tea are relatively modest. Although many studies show that people do in fact lose weight, there are also some studies showing no effect.

WHAT IS IT

Green tea has been used in China for thousands of years for its health-preserving and revitalizing power. Modern science has identified powerful antioxidants in green tea called polyphenols. One group of polyphenols called catechins is particularly potent and is highly effective at neutralizing free radicals at the cellular level. Catechins support healthy cell function while providing antioxidant protection to critical cell structures such as DNA. Clinical studies show catechins interfere with the production of certain enzymes involved in cell damage. Additionally, catechins have been demonstrated to cause a thermogenic effect that enhances the body s metabolic rate. Tegreen 97 ® from Pharmanex is a proprietary, highly concentrated extract of the catechins found in green tea. Tegreen 97 ® is one of the most potent antioxidant supplements on the market with a 97 percent polyphenol content, 65% catechins. Each Tegreen 97 ® capsule contains the catechin equivalent of approximately seven cups of green tea and is 99.5 percent caffeine free.

HOW TO USE

As a dietary supplement, take one (1) to four (4) capsules daily; preferably one (1) to two (2) each morning and evening with food.

Modern science has identified powerful antioxidants in green tea called polyphenols. One group of polyphenols called catechins is particularly potent and highly effective at neutralising free radicals at the cellular level.

Each Tegreen 97 ® capsule contains the catechin equivalent of approximately seven cups of green tea and is 99.5% cafeine free. Recent clinical studies show consuming 400 to 600 mg of catechins at one time will more effectlively increase the level of catechins in the blood and increase the amount of time they stay in the body.

• The 6S Quality Process ensures the quality and potency of each Tēgreen 97 capsule
• Standardised for consistent and powerful benefits in a comparative study, Tēgreen 97 was shown to have better bioavailability and antioxidant capacity than drinking green or black tea.

WHO SHOULD USE

Any adult concerned about long-term cell health and their antioxidant status should take Tēgreen 97. Individuals with a hectic, busy, or stressful lifestyle, or those frequently exposed to pollution might also find benefits from Tēgreen 97 supplementation.

DID YOU KNOW

• After water, tea is the most widely consumed beverage in the world (3 billion kg per year).
• Tegreen 97 comes from green tea grown in Zhejiang, the number one tea-producing region in the world
• Proprietary extraction of Tegreen 97 ensures a higher level of actives than most green tea products
• The processing of black tea destroys all of the active components
• A study by UCLA compared the effects of plasma antioxidant activity after consuming Tēgreen 97, green tea, or black tea. Tēgreen 97 was shown to be more bioavailable than drinking green or black tea, and increased plasma antioxidant capacity more effectively.

HOW IT WORKS

Increasing evidence suggests that the therapeutic effects of green tea are mediated by tea polyphenols. Tēgreen 97 provides triple-action cell protection by supporting the body in neutralizing three cell-jeopardizing substances: free radicals, nitrosamines, and potentially harmful toxins.

OUTSTANDING

Tēgreen 97 provides more concentrated levels of green tea polyphenols available in most food supplements. Green tea characteristics vary widely according to growing region, altitude, climate, and processing techniques. Pharmanex adheres to the time-honored tradition of using only the finest leaf buds and young leaves of tea plants cultivated in Zhejiang Province. This province is the number one tea-producing region in China, producing some of the highest quality tea in the world. Our proprietary process maximises the concentration of the naturally occurring polyphenols, while virtually eliminating caffeine.

Are there scientific studies validating this product?

Epidemiological, animal, and in vitro studies document the health maintenance and antioxidant benefits of green tea. Numerous studies using the proprietary extract found in Tēgreen 97 (known as Xin Nao Jian in Asia), suggest that the polyphenols in Tēgreen 97 provide a broad spectrum of antioxidant benefits.

STUDY ON TEGREEN 97 AND AGING

FINDINGS SHOW STRONG RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN NUTRITION AND APPEARANCE
Monday, April 19, 2010

Reference: Nutritionals Science about Tegreen 97 ® from Pharmanex 

A recent clinical study showed that Pharmanex Tegreen 97 can actually enhance the appearance of skin.

A couple years ago, scientists wanted to find the long-term effects of green tea on specific characteristics of facial skin. For two years, the scientists randomly administered Tegreen 97 or a placebo to 56 women two times a day. The women’s skin was then tested at six-, 12-, and 24-month intervals.

The randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled study, the largest of its kind to date, revealed a strong correlation between Nu Skin’s Tegreen 97 and reductions in skin damage based on different study assessments, including grading from board-certified dermatologists.

In fact, 47% of women who took Tegreen 97 twice daily for two years had moderate or greater improvements in photoaging when compared to placebo. Additional significant self-assessments over baseline included:

Reduction in pore size at 12 months
Increased skin evenness at 12 months

Clinical graders reported the following significant improvements over baseline:

Reduced appearance of small blood vessels (telangiectasias) on the skin’s surface at six and 12 months
Reduced solar damage at six months

Joe Chang, Ph.D., Nu Skin chief scientific officer and executive vice president of product development said, “This landmark research confirms Nu Skin’s philosophy that there is a strong relationship between nutrition and physical appearance. The results from this clinical study illustrate to consumers that the best anti-aging strategy requires a two-pronged approach that focuses on both internal nutrition and external skin care.”

Green tea has been used traditionally in China for thousands of years for its health-preserving and revitalizing power, and modern science has identified polyphenols as powerful antioxidants. One group of polyphenols—catechins—is particularly potent and highly effective in neutralizing free radicals at the cellular level. Nu Skin’s Tegreen 97 contains a proprietary green tea extract containing 97 percent polyphenols, of which 65 percent are catechins. The antioxidant power in one Tegreen 97 capsule is equivalent to seven cups of the traditionally brewed green tea drink and is 99.5 percent caffeine free.

In addition to the Tegreen 97 ingestible supplement, Nu Skin also includes Tegreen 97 in its topical Tru Face Essence Ultra firming serum as part of an antioxidant network to protect rejuvenated skin cells and proteins.
