- highly concentrated, standardised - over 90% polyphenols, 70% catechins and 50% EGCG - enhanced metabolism - each cap contains polyphenols in 7 cups of regular green tea - minimal stimulant effect, only 20mg caffeine per cap Concentrated and standardised by the latest technology, Lean Green contains all the beneficial compounds in high quality green tea. Each 500mg cap is equivalent to 7 cups of regular green tea, but contains only 1/3 of the caffeine in one cup of green tea. The polyphenols and Catechins in Lean Green is found to support weight and body fat loss, increase energy levels (independent of caffeine) by lifting the metabolism. Green tea extract exert a synergistic effect on fat burning with caffeine. Scientific References 1. Eur J Nut. 2004 Apr;43(2):116-24.
