CATECHINSHELPS BURN FAT

CATECHINSAIDS CARBS ABSORPTION

Studies showed that caffeine enhances absorption and usage of extra carbs much

Catechins promotes using fat instead of carbs for energy during intensive training activity.

A study in 2005 showed fat burned by 89% from combining catechins and exercise in mice.

Catechins reduces depletion of stored carbs in body

This stored source of energy is used for body recovery

during resting time.

EGCG, catechins from matcha, increases fat burning by 17%, which helps your body looks firm and toned up.

Lactate accumulates during physical activity which leads to fatigue and oxidative stress in muscles.

Catechins helps immune system reduce oxidative stress, which repairs muscles for the long run.

Catechins is found to increase the rate of O2 consumption by

muscles during exercise.

It helps muscles function and endure high stress, which boost

the training endurance

as the body does not deplete the stored carbs8-24% Catechins prolongs endurance by
