What are polyphenols?
Green Tea is the #1 source of polyphenols, chemical compounds found
in fruits and vegetables. These extremely high levels of polyphenols
deliver green tea's unique results in several ways. Just one example
is a subgroup of polyphenols, exclusive to green tea, called
catechins. EGCG, the most abundant and powerful of green tea's 5
main catechins, is dubbed the 'super antioxidant' because it is 200
times more powerful than the popular antioxidant vitamin E. This
super antioxidant eliminates free radicals, the unstable molecules
in the body that are the major cause of both aging and disease,
which are continually attacking the body. Unfortunately, polyphenols
have a quick life span (short half life) of about 3 hours, thus the
scientific reason behind researchers' recommendation to drink green
tea a minimum of 8 times a day. The Green Tea Patch was designed to
provide a constant supply of high potency green tea for 48 hours,
while the Instant Beverage Packets deliver an immediate surge of
polyphenols in a single, zero-calorie dose. This potent combination
provides enough green tea to achieve weight loss results and general
health benefits.

Is green tea better than black tea?
Yes. For maximum health benefits it often is. Fresh green tea leaves
contain the highest polyphenol amounts. All teas - black, green and
oolong are from the same plant, Camellia sinensis, and contain
polyphenols. It's the amount of processing each undergoes that
determines the variety of tea and the eventual polyphenol content.
- Black tea is allowed to dry slowly, essentially fermenting,
which oxidizes the leaves and deactivates many of the polyphenols.
- Green tea is steamed before it's dried, which deactivates the
enzyme that causes oxidation and locks in a high polyphenol
content - 60 percent more than black tea.
- Oolong tea is dried (oxidized) some, but not completely,
before it is steamed to stop the oxidation process.

Does green tea have caffeine?
Yes. Even decaffeinated tea has a very small amount of caffeine.
Green tea has less caffeine than black or oolong tea. The amount of
caffeine depends on how tea is brewed, how long it's brewed, what
part of the tea plant the leaf/bud comes from and the size of the
leaf when brewed. Tea bags usually have smaller leaves or pieces of
leaves and result in more caffeine when brewed. The Green Tea Patch
and Instant Beverage Packets contain 45mg of caffeine in each dose,
which is 50-70% less than a cup of coffee.
