Green Tea Capsules - How Much Daily?

by Rhonda
(Louisville, Ky.)

I take 6 capsules of green tea 315mg. It has 25mg of hoodia (leaf) 650mg of daily value.

Other ingredients include maltodextrin, gelatin, silica, vegetable magnesiumstearate. Is this a sufficient amount to get good results healthwise?

Answer:

Rhonda, 650 milligrams of green tea extract is sufficient for most people. Do you mind me asking how much is the recommended daily dosage on your product? If possible, I would recommend you stick to the recommended amount and avoid exceeding.

The key is to understand what the level of catechins or EGCG the green tea capsules contain. A lot of products say they contain green tea, but this is not the same as EGCG or catechins themselves.

what you really want are catechins and EGCG, standardised to the same composition as the real tea. You also want to buy from a reputable manufacturer.
