Green tea is obtained from the leaves of the tea plant Camellia sinensis, which originally comes from East Asia. Green tea has been an established part of tea culture for thousands of years, particularly in China and Japan. Unlike black tea, freshly harvested tea leaves are heated at an early stage during the production of green tea in order to largely prevent enzymatic oxidation. This helps preserve many of the naturally occurring plant compounds.
Green tea is particularly characterised by its content of polyphenols. These secondary plant compounds include the so-called catechins, which make up an important part of its natural constituent profile. The best-known catechins include epicatechin (EC), epicatechin gallate (ECG), epigallocatechin (EGC) and epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG). Their concentration can vary depending on the type of tea, growing region, time of harvest and processing.
EGCG is one of the most abundant catechins in green tea and has been the subject of numerous scientific studies. From a chemical perspective, it is a plant-based polyphenolic compound from the flavanol group. EGCG is characterised by its distinctive molecular structure with several hydroxyl groups, which are characteristic of its chemical properties. Among the catechins, EGCG occupies a special position due to its structure and natural occurrence.
In food supplements, green tea is often used in the form of a concentrated extract. Certain plant compounds are extracted from the tea leaves and subsequently processed. A standardised extract containing 50% EGCG, for example, provides a total of 750mg EGCG in 1,500mg green tea extract. Standardisation makes it possible to provide a precisely defined amount of this catechin regardless of natural variations in the plant-based raw materials.
There is an interesting difference between traditionally drinking green tea as a beverage and using concentrated green tea extracts. While an infusion can contain different amounts of catechins depending on how it is prepared, food supplements can provide considerably more concentrated amounts. The composition of an extract is influenced, among other factors, by the plant parts used, the extraction process and subsequent processing.
Green tea extract and EGCG are therefore interesting examples of the diversity of naturally occurring secondary plant compounds. While green tea as a beverage has a long cultural tradition, standardised extracts allow selected catechins to be provided in precisely defined amounts.
