Study finds Pharmanex® Tegreen 97® May Improve Glucose-Lipid Metabolism June 3, 2005 — A new experimental study found that Pharmanex® Tegreen 97® may help blood sugar control and body fat burning properties. The findings, which were presented at the American Heart Association’s Sixth Annual Conference in Washington D.C., also reiterated the cell protection benefits of green tea catechins in promoting cardiovascular and brain health.* “The results of this study are very meaningful in building a greater body of knowledge related to two significant health issues today: weight gain and lack of blood sugar control,” said Dr. Joe Chang, president of Pharmanex. “We have shown with this and other studies that Tegreen 97 can have a significant beneficial effect in managing these two health conditions.” Dr. Josh Zhu, senior director of clinical R&D for Pharmanex, was the chief researcher of the study. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of Tegreen 97® in enhancing insulin sensitivity and improving glucose-lipid metabolism. In addition, the research examined the effects of the proprietary green tea supplement in lowering body weight and weight of abdominal fat and inhibiting angiogenesis, which is the formation and differentiation of blood vessels, a key pathological process in the development of abnormal cells. Angiogenesis is hypothesized to play an important role in being overweight.* Pharmanex’s Tegreen 97® Tegreen 97® is a proprietary green tea extract containing 97% polyphenols of which 65% are catechins, making it a highly concentrated extract of the antioxidant catechins found naturally in green tea that promote cellular health.
