Catechins Powder Introduction
Catechins, also known as Caredhieacid, tea tannin, is a class of phenolic active substances extracted from natural plants such as tea. It is white needle-like crystals, soluble in hot water, ethanol , glacial acetic acid, acetone, and slightly soluble in cold water and ether. Its aqueous solution is easily polymerized into amorphous tannin when heated or in the presence of inorganic acid. Catechins and caffeine are the two important functional components in tea, but catechins is the most important component in tea soup.
Catechins is an important component of tea and has strong free radical scavenging and antioxidant effects, which is also the basis for other pharmacological effects of catechins. Catechins has the functions of protecting cardiovascular and cerebrovascular, anti-tumor, antibacterial, antiviral, anti-inflammatory, protecting nerves, liver, kidneys, weight loss, and anti-diabetes. Clinical experimental investigations show that catechins can enter the whole body through blood circulation, strengthen metabolism, enhance fat oxidation and energy consumption, so as to achieve the effect of inhibiting obesity, especially the inhibition of visceral fat, which can achieve the ideal weight loss effect. It has been widely used in the fields of medicine, daily chemical industry, food and oil industry as a raw material for health food, natural cosmetics or an antioxidant and preservative for oil-containing food. It can also be used in dyestuff and tanning industries.
Applications:
1. Free radical scavenging, anti-oxidation and anti-aging: Catechins is a natural oil antioxidant, which can scavenge free radicals produced by the human body to protect cell membranes and slow down aging.
2. Prevent tooth decay: Tea contains fluorine which can make teeth have strong resistance to acid erosion. In addition, clinical trials have shown that catechins can significantly reduce plaque and slow periodontal disease.
3. Catechins have the effect of changing the distribution of intestinal microorganisms: catechins can inhibit human pathogenic bacteria without harming the reproduction of beneficial bacteria, so they have the function of regulating the intestines.
4. Antibacterial effect: Catechins can inhibit the bacteria that cause human skin diseases, and has a good effect on the treatment of eczema.
5. Deodorization: Catechins can remove the odor of methyl mercaptan, so it can remove the bad breath of smokers, and reduce the odor of pig, chicken and human excrement.
6. Others: Some studies have shown that catechins also has the functions of lowering blood pressure, lowering blood sugar, lowering cholesterol (so it has the function of losing weight), anti-radiation, and anti-mutation.
