Green Tea Leaves 100g

Green Tea Leaves 100g (Camellia sinensis) from Pharma Germania are premium quality leaves traditionally used for antioxidant support and general wellbeing.

R119.00

Pharma Germania Natural Products Green Tea Leaves contain dried leaves of Camellia sinensis, the same tea plant from which black, white and oolong teas are produced.

Green Tea undergoes relatively limited oxidation during processing, helping preserve many of its naturally occurring polyphenols and catechins.

One of its best-known constituents is epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), alongside other catechins and flavonoids that contribute to Green Tea’s antioxidant properties.

Green Tea also naturally contains caffeine and L-theanine. Together, these compounds contribute to its traditional use as a refreshing beverage for alertness, concentration and everyday wellbeing.

Green Tea is frequently associated with metabolic and cardiovascular wellness, but ordinary loose Green Tea leaves should not be equated with concentrated or standardised green tea extracts used in some research and supplements.

Why Choose Pharma Germania Green Tea Leaves?

Green Tea is one of the world’s most widely consumed traditional beverages and provides a naturally occurring combination of catechins, caffeine and L-theanine.

Its characteristic catechins include EGCG, EGC, ECG and EC, which contribute to Green Tea’s antioxidant activity.

Unlike highly concentrated Green Tea extracts, loose Green Tea leaves are prepared as an infusion and consumed as a traditional beverage. The concentration of caffeine, EGCG and other constituents in each cup can vary according to the amount of tea used, water temperature and brewing time.

Individuals who are sensitive to caffeine may experience restlessness, nervousness, palpitations, digestive discomfort or difficulty sleeping. Consider avoiding Green Tea close to bedtime if caffeine affects your sleep.

Pregnant and breastfeeding individuals should account for Green Tea when calculating their total daily caffeine intake and follow healthcare guidance regarding caffeine consumption.

Green Tea may reduce the absorption of non-haem iron when consumed with meals. Individuals with low iron levels or increased iron requirements may wish to separate tea consumption from iron-rich meals or iron supplements.

Consult a healthcare practitioner before regular medicinal use if taking chronic medication, particularly anticoagulant medication or stimulant-containing products.

Loose-leaf Green Tea should not be confused with concentrated Green Tea extracts, which can deliver substantially higher quantities of catechins and have different safety considerations.
