Gregory Chandler, Attorney at Law, on Green Tea and Vitamin C

Studies conducted by scientists at Purdue University discovered that vitamin C from citrus reduces the breakdown of catechin compounds such as epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) within the digestive system, making them more available to the body. These powerful antioxidant catechins, found in brewed green tea and green tea extract, are believed to provide a myriad of health benefits, such as reduced heart disease, improved bone strength and reduced risk of certain cancers. Moreover, studies suggest that catechins may prevent weight gain and improve exercise endurance by stimulating fat burning while one is exercising.
