As you know I am not a tea or coffee drinker, but I am aware of the benefits for ones health and well being by drinking herbal teas....several years ago I did manage to drink a cup of Green Tea everyday for six months,which for me was a huge achievement. Alas that "taste" and that morning dread of "downing" a green cuppa was so unbearable that I eventually had to give up the daily green tea....So you can imagine my absolute delight when Solal came out with Green Tea Extract capsules....yeah!
Green Tea was originally discovered in China and the health benefits seem to be endless. Green Tea is an excellent source of Polyphenols, (Plants contain a large number of compounds that work as antioxidants to protect the cells in your body from free radical damage. There are three major groups:the largest group, the polyphenols and they are found in many different foods) Green Tea also improves heart health by helping to lower Cholesterol,reducing blood stickiness and slows down the formation of blocked arteries.It also has a broad anti-oxidant and immune system enhancing effects,which may explain its effects on reducing the risk of many cancers. Studies have suggested that drinking Green Tea may increase the rate of fat burning during exercise.(that's always useful) It may also reduce the likelihood of developing Alzheimer's disease by helping to protect brain function in ageing individuals.

| Green Tea Extract Capsules |
For the past two years I have been taking the recommended one "caffeine free" capsule daily,which is equivalent to drinking 5 cups of green tea...."Thank You Thank You" Solal...
I couldn't stomach the one cup let alone five cups...
60 capsules which is 2 months supply retails for approx R128, which I think is a great price for all the benefits this little capsule has to offer...
