ZEC+ green tea extract in capsules
The ZEC+ capsules with green tea extract are a dietary supplement containing green tea as a high-quality extract. With 1000 mg of extract per capsule, they are among the highest-dose products of this type available on the market. Of this, 50% is EGCG (epigallocatechin gallate), a catechin which belongs to the secondary plant substances and is a main active ingredient in green tea.
Green tea (Camellia Sinensis var. sinensis) has been valued in China and Japan for thousands of years as a medicinal plant for its health benefits. As an extract in capsule form - made from the leaves of the tea plant - it is mainly used by athletes today for dietary support.
What effect do the capsules with green tea extract have?
The EGCG it contains has a variety of effects, including a positive influence on the immune system and the course of the diet. During a calorie-reduction diet, green tea capsules can positively influence the success of the diet thanks to their effects on calorie consumption through increased thermogenesis (heat production). They are also said to reduce the rise in blood sugar after a meal of pasta, potatoes, cereals or other starchy foods, as the EGCG it contains inhibits the breakdown of starch and the blood sugar level rises more slowly after the meal.
EGCG is also a powerful antioxidant that fights free radicals and has a disease-preventing effect. Free radicals attack healthy body cells and damage proteins, causing oxidative stress, which leads to cell damage and promotes diseases and ageing processes. Antioxidants such as EGCG prevent oxidative stress from occurring in the first place: Green tea extract can therefore help to prevent diseases.
Taking green tea extract capsules
With 500 mg EGCG per capsule, this dietary supplement is very strong and potent in its effect. Therefore, one capsule per day is usually enough to notice a positive effect. Studies show that the plant substance works best when taken on an empty stomach. If you want to improve your diet, increase your well-being and do something good for your immune system, you should ideally take a capsule of green tea extract immediately after getting up.
