Product Description
Green tea extract from the leaf is sold as total polyphenols (about 98%), catechins (about 80%), or EGCG (about 50% and up). EGCG is one catechin; polyphenols are the wide net.
It is used in weight and antioxidant capsules, drinks, and some cosmetics. High EGCG intakes have liver-injury warnings in several supplement rules, so the percent is a safety number as well as a label number.
When buying, name EGCG, catechins or polyphenols. Caffeine should be on the COA if the formula is meant to be low-stimulant.

Applications
RTD and Sticks
Astringent and can sediment. Decaf grades are a separate ask.
Topical Antioxidant
Colour stains. Use a grade whose caffeine and solvent story fits a leave-on.
Tablets
EGCG milligrams, not “green tea extract”, belong on the label.
Caffeine Line
Ask for caffeine if the blend is meant to be low-stimulant.
Not a Tea Bag
A leaf infusion will not deliver 50% EGCG. The extract dose is what the label has to use.
Leave-on Colour
Polyphenol grades stain. Check the tint in the finished base.
FAQ
Is a 98% polyphenol extract the same as a high-EGCG extract?
Different tests. A polyphenol powder can be well under 50% EGCG.
Does green tea extract always contain caffeine?
Ask for it. “Green tea extract” is not automatically decaf.
Which part of the tea plant is used?
Leaf.
What polyphenol, catechin and EGCG grades are available?
Polyphenols about 98%, catechins about 80%, EGCG from about 50% upward.
Which part is used?
The leaf.
Why can a high EGCG dose be a safety number?
Several supplement rules warn on high EGCG intakes and the liver. The percent decides the serving, not only the marketing.
