Jarrow Green Tea
5:1 500mg (100 Caps)
In countless cultures throughout history, tea has been regarded
as a wonder. It has been considered a healing tonic, a brain stimulator,
a relaxant, a life prolonger... in general, in centuries old lore,
tea has been regarded as a panacea.
Green tea, the oldest form, contains biochemical compounds called
polyphenols, which include flavonoids. Flavonoids are antioxidants,
which prevent cell damage thought to contribute to more than 50

Jarrow Formulas’ Green Tea is water extracted, produced from
fresh leaves that are chopped, rolled, and quickly steamed, a process
that retains polyphenols. Jarrow’s green tea consists of 50%
polyphenols, including 33% catechins. Catechins are flavan monomers,
the building blocks of OPCs.
OPCs, OligoProanthoCyanidins, are polymers (or chains) of flavans.
