As a flavonoid, epicatechin has many physiological activities, such as anti-oxidation, lipid-lowering and hypoglycemic, prevention of cardiovascular disease, anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective, antibacterial and other effects.
The properties of epicatechin EC are similar to EGCG, but the antioxidant activity is slightly lower than that of EGCG.
Our epicatechin is extracted from green tea leaves, with a content of 90%-95%, which can be used in medicine, health care products and other fields.
