Efficacy of a green tea extract rich in catechin polyphenols and caffeine in increasing 24-h energy expenditure and fat oxidation in humans.\nDulloo AG, Duret C, Rohrer D, Girardier L, Mensi N, Fathi M, Chantre P, Vandermander J.\nAm J Clin Nutr. 1999 Dec;70(6):1040-5.\nPMID: 10584049

"Proanthocyanidin (PA or PAC), also known as procyanidin, oligomeric proanthocyanidin (OPC), leukocyanidin, leucoanthocyanin and condensed tannins, is a class of flavanols. Proanthocyanidins are essentially polymer chains of flavonoids such as catechins.[1] One was discovered in 1936 by Professor Jacques Masquelier and called Vitamin P, although this name did not gain official category status and has since fallen out of usage. It was Masquelier who first developed techniques for the extraction of proanthocyanidins from certain plant species. Proanthocyanidins have been sold as nutritional and therapeutic supplements in Europe since the 1980s, but their introduction to the United States market has been relatively recent. In the human body, they might act as antioxidants (free radical scavengers).[citation needed] OPCs may help protect against the effects of internal and environmental stresses such as cigarette smoking and pollution, as well as supporting normal body metabolic processes. The effects may include depressing blood fat, emolliating blood vessels, lowering blood pressure, preventing blood vessel scleroses, dropping blood viscidity and preventing thrombus formation [18]. Additionally, studies have shown that OPCs may prevent cardiovascular diseases by counteracting the negative effects of high cholesterol on the heart and blood vessels. Pycnogenol® is the name of such an OPCs commercial formulation. OPCs are available from fresh grapes, grape juice, and red wine. Although in milligrams per ounce red wine may contain more OPCs than red grape juice, red grape juice contains more OPCs per average serving size. An 8 ounce serving of grape juice averages 124 milligrams OPCs, while a 5 ounce serving of red wine averages 91 milligrams.[19][20] Many other foods and beverages also contain high amounts of OPCs, but very few come close to the levels found in red grape seeds and skins (which readily disperse into grape juice when crushed)

The LeanBiome weight loss formula is helpful in losing weight accumulated in different parts of your body, thus supporting a completely healthy body. The presence of beneficial bacteria in this formula makes it better than other weight loss supplements on the market as these healthy bacteria (good bacteria) help you lose weight, maintain proper gut health, and support healthy digestion through a healthy digestive system. How Does LeanBiome Work? If you're a woman above 18 years old struggling with weight loss, LeanBiome could be the supplement for you. It contains nine beneficial bacteria strains and natural green tea extract. The way LeanBiome operates is by first promoting a healthy stomach. When your stomach is healthy, it contains beneficial bacteria that aid in the digestion and absorption of nutrients from food. The presence of harmful bacteria in your stomach can cause weight gain. LeanBiome promotes the growth of beneficial bacteria and reduces harmful bacteria in your gut, leading to improved digestion and a healthier stomach.Next in the action line is Inulin - a prebiotic fiber that strides hand in hand with these probiotics. It nourishes the friendly bacteria in your gut, promoting better digestion and stable blood sugar levels.

A study recently published in the Journal of Periodontology, uncovered yet another benefit of green tea consumption. Researchers found that routine intake of green tea may also help promote healthy teeth and gums. The study analyzed the periodontal health of 940 men, and found that those who regularly drank green tea had superior periodontal health than subjects that consumed less green tea.
