EGCG content
By M. Goldstein
For those interested, the Supplement Facts on the bottle claims 326.25 mg EGCG yield per capsule. Good enough for me.

Not the best decaffeination process
By Sirskoal2011
I called the company because my concern is how they decaffeinate their product and I was disappointed that they used some solvent (ethanol in the process) rather than the safer CO2 process. So I ordered ECGC from NOW and its fairly decaffeinated only 4 mg of caffeine and they use the CO2 method. Do your research. I think if you are going to take something for your health then it should not have residues which may be undesirable.

Highly rated -- especially for CLL patients
By R. A. Clapp
My alternative medicine doc, who is also an MD, recommended this product due to my leukemia. There was a study by the Mayo Clinic of patients with CLL [my form of the disease] and there were some statistical data showing benefits for CLL patients who took a green tea extract -- strength not specified by the Mayo Clinic. I ordered this product as soon as I was diagnosed, and found immediate relief from swolen glands, and night sweats. I contacted the manufacturer, using the info on the label, and they have oncologists as consultants. The response to my question: "how much can I take?" came back as 3 times daily.

Five months later, swelling is minimal, night sweats rare. Doctor says my WBC is stable.... Those results are hard to dispute, in my opinion.

Given the info above -- this is a great product, full of good anti-oxidents, but with some minimally proven benefits for CLL patients, like me.

Shipping was extremely prompt, so I couldn't have asked for more from them.

Five stars!!!
