How it works
EGCG and other catechins inhibit intestinal cholesterol absorption and reduce LDL oxidation. Regular intake consistently lowers total and LDL cholesterol in trials.
High-dose EGCG supplements may cause liver toxicity (rare). Contains caffeine โ may affect sleep or BP in sensitive individuals. 3โ5 cups daily for dietary effect.
Dietary changes
Consider speaking to a GP, dietitian, or naturopath before making significant changes to your diet, particularly if you have an existing health condition.

โSome improvement but not as dramatic as I hoped. Might need longer to see full benefit. Still continuing.โ
