[ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] The study used green tea extract in capsule form containing the polyphenol epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), which is known to have antioxidant properties.
Even though all the teas (Black tea, Oolong tea and Green tea) consist of large amounts of polyphenols, green tea is particularly rich in a type of polyphenols called catechins, particularly epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG).
To combat that effect, the researchers combined the LED with a potent antioxidant in green tea extract called epigallocatechin gallate.
