Clean Energy and Antioxidant Support
It is a solid supplement for those looking to boost antioxidant intake and support metabolism naturally. Each capsule provides a concentrated dose of green tea benefits without the jitters of excessive caffeine. It’s easy to take, well-tolerated, and comes from a trusted brand known for quality supplements.

I like it’s product
Excellent supplement. It works. The desire to eat goes away and at the same time activity does not decrease. Also the price and quantity were good… I am happy with the purchase.

MUST be taken away from meals
Studies have found that EGCG – which is the component of green tea that is largely responsible for all the amazing anti-cancer, anti-aging, anti-Alzheimer’s benefits – is very poorly absorbed. In fact, if you take it with a protein-containing food (especially one that contains the amino acid proline, which is really high in dairy), it pretty much negates all its benefits as it keeps your body from absorbing it. I’m a nutrition student and am in the middle of writing a report/scouring the journals for information on EGCG. Current research shows that it is best taken first thing in the morning, after fasting all night, with 1000 mg of high quality fish oil from salmon, 200 mg of ascorbic acid (vitamin c) and AWAY from protein.I love this product because it’s incredibly cheap, has a high amount of EGCG and some vitamin C, though I also take it with citrus bioflavanoids for some extra C. Sometimes I’ll take it at the same time I’m eating an orange or a little fat, but always away from protein.If it makes you nauseous, start with one pill and some fruit. Rarely do I take more than one at a time. Side note: it’s likely the small amount of caffeine that’s responsible for the nausea. If you tolerate caffeine/black coffee or tea well, you’re unlikely to have issues with this.

Best green tea extract with 10+ year history of use
At 52, I spent my first year out of college living in Japan. I learned to appreciate good green tea and the health benefits that it would provide. Ever since then I have used a green tea extract and particularly, this brand and this version for 10 years. I’ll be cautious to overly impart every benefit I’m about to state to the green tea but I am very clear on a few. Taking a multivitamin regimen daily for several decades, the single time I swapped out this brand for a different one, was when gray hair began, only a few sprouts mind you but I am multiple years older than my brother, and have 2% Gray hair versus 100% on him. Additionally as a free radical scavenger, at 52 I would say I’m in the best shape of my life with a low body fat index and commonly commented as looking younger for my age. Of course this is a combination of multiple lifestyle components and genetics, and not just taking a magic pill, but having used this as long as I have, it is a daily go-to for life.

Didn’t work for me
I stopped smoking and my food cravings went crazy. Like crazy pregnancy cravings.I then realized no matter how much I exercised, I couldn’t lose weight. My metabolism is completely different now. I gain weight in different areas. Usually I can control the cravings, but some days it’s hard. So I decided to try the EGCg. I will say that I had a lot of energy. Not the jittery type that makes you feel sick. However, I make sure to eat with the medication. Some do empty stomach, but I’d rather not risk it.Appetite suppressant: I don’t even notice I’m hungry until my stomach is so empty I can’t ignore it. The only thing you have to watch out for is that about 6-8 hours later, you might start getting super hungry. So don’t NOT eat, just eat very healthy things.If you’re prone to insomnia, please take this EARLY morning. Even though it wears off about 6 hours after I take it, it will affect my sleep if I take it late morning/early afternoon.Update: it’s been causing intense anxiety and/or anger at the end of my day. I’m extremely sensitive to anything that might poke around my dopamine levels and it seems this does. I didn’t know what was going on, but when I didn’t take it the following day, I could feel a huge difference in mood.

はっきり言えますが、自分はこれを加えてから、確実に減量にスピードが増していってる。ミオスタチンを阻害してるのかは分からないですが、妙に筋肉が張ります。あと体臭が減った気がして、発汗時に香る制汗剤の香りがクリアになってます。自分は体感めちゃくちゃあります。ちなみにAmazonの方がi◯erbより安いです。

I would not recommend taking Green Tea Extract ever to anyone. I took just one tab in the morning and worked out in the morning for a week. Whenever I took GTE, that night I would be half asleep and half awake. I’ve read reviews where people found GTE beneficial. May be the effect varies and is not suitable for everyone.
