Epigallocatechin

Description:

Epigallocatechin, also known as epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), is a polyphenolic compound primarily found in green tea. It belongs to the flavonoid class of compounds and is recognized for its antioxidant properties, which help neutralize free radicals in the body. EGCG is characterized by its ability to inhibit various enzymes and pathways involved in oxidative stress and inflammation, contributing to its potential health benefits, including anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, and cardiovascular protective effects. The compound is soluble in water and exhibits a pale yellow to light brown color in its pure form. Its structure features multiple hydroxyl groups, which enhance its reactivity and biological activity. Additionally, EGCG has been studied for its role in metabolic regulation and weight management. Due to its bioactive properties, it is often incorporated into dietary supplements and functional foods. However, while promising, further research is necessary to fully understand its mechanisms and therapeutic potential in human health.
