The one thing we know about these times is that it’s stressful. Uncertainty about what’s coming next can be as stressful as illness itself. And, as we know, heightened levels of stress results in overproduction of cortisol, also know as the “fight or flight” hormone. In short duration, cortisol provides the energy necessary to handle a difficult situation. But long term cortisol production turns the body against itself through a response known as “inflammation.”
For many, prolonged cortisol production results in inflammatory bowel disorders. Other experience inflammation of the cardiovascular system, resulting in heart disease. Often times, autoimmune issues arise.
While we can reduce stress through lifestyle practices like meditation and exercise, it’s important to address our nutrition as well. And while it’s important to avoid foods that create additional inflammation, i.e., processed carbs and oils, we must seek out supplements that reduce stress and inflammation. That’s where green tea comes in.
According to Healthline website,
The health-promoting compounds in green tea are called polyphenols, of which epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) is the most potent.
EGCG has anti-inflammatory properties that can help relieve some of the flare-ups associated with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) like Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis.
In a 56-day study in people with ulcerative colitis who didn’t respond to conventional medication, treatment with an EGCG-based medication improved symptoms by 58.3%, compared with no improvements in the placebo group.
Green tea also seems to reduce inflammation-driven conditions like heart disease, Alzheimer’s, and even certain cancers.
While your daily brew of green tea provides some anti-inflammatory benefit, you won’t find a more potent and concentrated source of EGCG than in our Chi Tea line of green tea standardized extracts. And our Chi Tea extracts are caffeine-free, alcohol-free, and free of pesticides and contaminants.
Chi Tea Ultimate Green Tea
While brewed green tea leaf offers between 30-45% EGCG, our Chi Tea delivers as much as 62% EGCG, with more consistent potency as a standardized, liquid extract. Additionally, Chi Tea is fortified with powerful botanicals. And Chi Tea is so concentrated, one dropperful provides the antioxidant equivalent of 10-15 cups of brewed green tea.
Chi-Tox Tea
Chi-Tox Tea – a standardized, liquid extract – has been scientifically formulated so that all of its ingredients synergistically work at detoxifying the liver’s brilliantly designed filtration system. Formulated with our green tea as a base, Chi-Tox is further enhanced with medicinal mushrooms, lycium (goji berry), schisandra, milk thistle, skullcap, and licorice.
