Facts

1) Teavigo Quick Facts

Teavigo is based on the therapeutic properties of the herbal extract ECGC. The compound is obtained from the plant Camellia sinensis and is thought to be the most active green tea flavonoid.

Green tea is the subject of abundant research that seems to confirm its vast benefits on the human health. A sufficient amount of green tea provides the necessary nutrients for maintaining a healthy heart and preventing potentially lethal cardiovascular diseases, increasing the life span and quality of life.

Other clinical trials involving human or animal subjects have revealed benefits in many other areas including in the treatment and prevention of cancer, infections, allergies, brain degeneration, decrease in bone density (and associated conditions), diabetes, etc.

It has been stated that this is the widest researched beverage in the last several years.

Its benefits seem to arise from the large amount of active substances that act as powerful antioxidants from the plant’s composition. EGCG is one of these antioxidants that were scientifically shown to impact progression of cancerous tumors including in the case of breast, prostate, lung, mouth and pancreas cancers.

However, the scientists have concluded that a quantity of more than three cups per day should be consumed for noticeable benefits.

Some of the side effects associated with green tea (especially large quantities) are increased alertness, dizziness heartburn, confusion that may lead to insomnia, stomach upset, anxiety symptoms, and in rarer cases, liver problems.

Special precautions are issued for pregnant and breast-feeding women who should limit the amount of green tea used because the increased amount of caffeine present in this plant.

EGCG is also found in more complex nootropic formulas like Blue Star Elevate.

Does it Work

7) Bottom Line – Does It Really Work?

Teavigo is based on the patented green tea extract developed and marketed by the Dutch company DSM. The substance is advertised as the result of a unique production process that uses the highest purity green tea available. One of the important advantages of this supplement is the lack of caffeine which is an indication of an increased safety and reduced likelihood of developing side effects.

Teavigo is advertised as free of sugar, salt, herbicides and pesticides and allergenic chemicals (starch, corn, barley, fish, shellfish, dairy products, soy, nuts, egg, wheat or gluten). The patented key ingredient is clinically researched, but most of the studies are sponsored by the developing company DSM.

A moderate number of testimonials are available for consulting, and most of them seem to support the benefits of the formula. Teavigo contains certain active substances shown to cause mild to serious side effects, although the manufacturer does not indicate any of them in the presentation of the product. This alone is a sufficient reason to take all safety measures and ask a healthcare professional before starting to use such a supplement.

Teavigo is the perfect supplement for those who want to supply the proper amounts of oxidants with multiple benefits on the overall health. EGCG is one of the most potent antioxidant from green tea and Healthy Origins has never disappointed me. I bought this supplement and now I feel more alert and able to focus on finishing daily chores. And I am sure that many other benefits are brought by this formula.

These capsules are wonderful. They provide one of the highest concentrations of EGCG on the market and are easy to swallow, unlike other supplements of this type. After started using this, I definitely saw a difference in my alertness and energy levels. And no side effects either!
