It is the component with the highest content of catechin, accounting for 9% of the gross weight of green tea -13%, because of its special stereochemical structure, EGCG has a very strong antioxidant activity, which is at least 100 times that of vitamin C and 25 times that of vitamin E, and can protect cells and DNA from damage.

EGCG is the main component of green tea tea polyphenols, and also the main component of green tea catechins, including EGCG, EGC, ECG, EC, GCG, etc., among which the antioxidant activity is EC. Many studies have shown that EGCG has anti-oxidative properties. Free radical DNA damage, anti-radiation and ultraviolet rays, prevent oil peroxidation, reduce serum levels of low-density cholesterol, ultra-low-density cholesterol and triglycerides, interfere with signal transmission required for cancer cell survival, inhibit dietary carcinogens, Works with other enzymes and antioxidants in the intestines, liver, and lungs to block the activity of certain carcinogens, scavenge free radicals, protect against the effects of pollution, sun exposure, and smoking, and prevent skin aging and wrinkling.
