OLIMP GREEN TEA capsules contain
highly concentrated green tea (Camelia sinensis) extract. For thousands
of years, tea bush leaves have been used as an effective weight
reducing, strengthening, and therapeutic agent. Green tea extract is a
rich source of natural bioactive phytochemical substances –
polyphenols (catechines, flavonols, phenolic acids) and methylxanthines
(caffeine, theophylline, theobromine). In the human body, catechins
regulate the activity of many enzymes – among other things
they limit the activity of the COMT enzyme responsible for adrenaline
decomposition, which confers to them moderate adrenomimetic activity.
Owing to their moderate adrenomimetic action, they intensify the
decomposition of adipose tissue. It has been proven that adrenomimetics
(such as catechin) in combination with caffeine and phenolic acids
(other natural ingredients of green tea extract) intensify
thermogenesis – burning with thermal energy dissipation,
which process leads to an increased utilisation of storage fats.
Catechins reduce also the assimilation of energy ingredients from food
– they bind to them, forming stable complexes, and inhibit
the activity of digestive enzymes. Green tea flavonols limit the
activity of aldolase – an enzyme which controls the process
of accumulation of storage fat in the adipose tissue. Caffeine inhibits
appetite, which effect is potentiated and prolonged by adrenomimetic
catechins. Apart from the weight reducing effect, the active substances
of the green tea extract display a very wide spectrum of health
effects, which is associated with their extraordinary free radical
scavenging activity, exceeding 200 times the activity of the model
antioxidant- tocopherol (vitamin E). Scientific studies have proven
beyond all doubt that active substances of green tea display
anti-atherosclerotic, anti-infective, anti-inflammatory, anti-allergic,
anti-exudative (vitamin P activity), and chemopreventive –
cancer-risk limiting - actions. The product is particularly recommended
for: - obese persons and persons with a tendency to bodyweight
increase, reducing their bodyweight, and at risk of the main obesity
complication - atherosclerosis; - all adults for prevention of
alimentary tract infections and common cold; - cigarette smokers; -
persons on non-rational diet – ingesting the insufficient
amounts of fresh fruit and vegetables; - industrial employees and
inhabitants of industrial centres; - persons aged 40 years and more and
the elderly, when the natural anti-cancer defence of the body is being
reduced; - persons with cancer cases among their close relatives, for
protection against malignant diseases.
