Great Impression proven in study to increase thermogenesis and weight loss!
Already lauded as a powerful antioxidant, Great Impression
green tea extract may also help dieters shed fat, according to researchers reporting in the December issue of the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.
Great Impression
green tea extract may also be a safe improvement on traditional diet drugs because its benefits are "not accompanied by an increase in heart rate," writes Dr. Abdul Dulloo, of the University of Geneva in Switzerland.
As part of their study, the investigators measured the 24-hour energy expenditure of 10 healthy men receiving three doses of caffeine (50 mg), green tea extract (containing 50 mg caffeine and 90 mg
epigallocatechin), or a 'dummy' placebo per day.
The study authors report that, compared with placebo, treatment with green tea was associated with a "significant increase" (+4%) in daily
energy expenditure. This effect was not linked to the relatively small amounts of caffeine found in tea, since subjects receiving amounts of caffeine similar to those found in green tea displayed no change
in daily energy output.
Dulloo's team points out that "there are only two ways to treat obesity: reduce energy intake (i.e., dieting), or increase energy expenditure." According to their
analysis, green tea extract seems to perform the latter function, although the mechanisms behind its action remain unclear.
The investigators note, however, that Great Impression
green tea extract contains a high amount of catechin polyphenols. These compounds may work with other chemicals to increase levels of fat oxidation and thermogenesis, where the body burns fuel such as fat to create heat.
"Stimulation of thermogenesis and fat oxidation by the Great Impression
green tea extract" did not raise subjects' heart rates, the researchers note. This may render green tea superior to stimulant diet drugs, which can have adverse cardiac effects, especially in "obese individuals with hypertension and other cardiovascular complications."

"After only 3 weeks I noticed an unexpected benefit from taking Great Impression I had lost
the excess fat on my stomach that I had had for years."
Jon G., N.Y.
There are many different ways to tackle the prospect of losing weight.
Many choose to restrict or calculate what they eat, while some focus on additional help received from supplements, vitamins, as well as other items.
Drinking tea can lead to beneficial results when dieting. This is especially true when it comes to the benefits of green tea extracts for dieting.
The benefits of green tea for dieting and medical use have been recognized for centuries in countries like India and China.
Green Tea saponins/polyphenol Weight Loss Concentrate, Great Impression
is a Weight Loss, cardiovascular health, anti-cancer, lowers blood pressure, cholesterol and arthritis prevention scientific formula.
Great Impression
green tea extract is the only clinically proven, ephedra-free diet concentrate that can significantly increase thermogenesis and shifts the body's substrate
utilization in favor of fat oxidation (as opposed to carbohydrate or protein). Great Impression contains a unique extract which has been concentrated to contain 40g/kg
saponins and 30g/kg polyphenols. According to a recent study published in the "American Journal of Clinical Nutrition", the formula found in Great Impression, with its unique ratios of
particular constituents, can increase the thermogenesis by up to over 40%
What makes green tea so revolutionary is this simple fact: Green Teas ability to stimulate
thermogenesis is not accompanied by an associated increase in heart rate.
Green Tea is the first and only, all natural fat burning product which can selectively increase
fat oxidation without jitters and mood swings, increased heart rate, heart palpitations, and other similar side effects associated with Ma-Haung, (ephedrine). This makes Green Tea
perfect for individuals wishing to remove stimulants from their diets. Green Tea can be used by more people who are looking to lose weight naturally. Most importantly it can help keep that weight off.
Researchers theorize that one of the Green Tea's mechanism of action relies on the synergy between EGCG and caffeine. Green Tea's catechins (a subclass of flavonoids) and caffeine work by:
1. Inhibiting the enzyme, catechol O-methyltransferase (COMT), which is responsible for breaking down noreinephrine, thus increasing this neurotransmitter's life in the synaptic cleft.
2. Inhibiting phosphodiesterases, thus increasing the life of cyclic AMP (cAMP) in the cell.
Together, these effects heighten the impact of norepinephrine is the neurotransmitter which
plays a large role in the control of thermogenesis and fat oxidation for weight loss.
While you take Green Tea to help control your weight, you are also getting another
tremendous benefit; ie, immune boost. And the health benefits that come with increased immune system. As a 100% natural product, you can be sure of potency and purity.
Green tea's ability to fight cancer is even more potent and varied than scientists suspected, research suggests. Scientists already know that green tea contains anti-oxidants which may
have a protective effect against cancer.
But now they have discovered that chemicals in the tea also shut down a key molecule which can play a significant role in the development of cancer.
In Japan, high levels of stress and hypertension are not risk factors for heart attack and stroke. Salt isn't either, and neither is smoking even though Japanese smoke more
cigarettes than Americans. The reason is diet. Studies show that when Japanese adopt a Western diet, their risk of heart attack almost doubles, and Western risk factors then apply to them.
One of the protective factors in the Japanese diet is green tea. According to one study, drinking one or more cups of tea can almost halve the risk of heart attack. Green tea
contains a much higher concentration of theanine than other teas. Theanine has been proven to lower blood pressure. It works through its GABA-enhancing effects. GABA lowers blood pressure.
Researchers at the University of Arizona tested 140 smokers to see if drinking tea reduces
the risks of cancer. They examined whether tea repaired damage to cells caused by smoking. In particular, they looked at the affects on a chemical called 8-OhDG, which is
found in urine and is believe to cause cell damage.
For four months, volunteers drank either green tea, black tea or water. "They were asked to
eat whatever they were eating and just add tea to their diet," said Dr Iman Hakim, who headed the study. Researchers tested the participants' urine for levels of 8-OHdG. "What we
found was a 25% decrease in the green tea group," she said. However, no changes were seen in the people who drank black tea or water. "We think green tea, in our group of
smokers, is associated with a reduction of oxidative stress in their urine," Dr Hakim said.
The polyphenols found in Green Tea appear to block the formation of non-melanoma skin cancer, which strikes nearly 60,000 people each year.
Researchers studied mice with skin cancer from UV light exposure. The animals treated with a lotion rich in polyphenols had decreased levels of an enzyme associated with skin cancer.

GREEN TEA - Antioxidant - Green Tea possesses six times more Antioxidant activity than
Black Tea. In order to derive the health benefits of the Tannins (Tea Polyphenols) found in Green Tea, it is essential that Tea be consumed without added Milk as the addition of Milk
to Green Tea causes the Tannins to bind to Proteins that are present in Milk (rendering them unusable).
Studies show that antioxidants in green tea can lower cholesterol in rabbits by increasing the
amount of a liver protein that works to clear cholesterol from the blood.
Although research already linked green tea consumption with lower cholesterol levels, the
results are the first to identify the mechanism responsible. Green tea's high concentration of strong antioxidants called catechins increase the liver's LDL receptors, a major mechanism
for cholesterol control. In turn these receptors work to decrease LDL, the so-called "bad cholesterol" in the blood. The LDL receptor binds LDL and clears it from the bloodstream.
Additional Health Benefits of Tea
Fight Cancer & Heart Disease
Tea contains antioxidant compounds of polyphenols that help the body fight harmful free radicals. These harmful free radicals are the cause for cancer. Tea also contains flavonoids
that restricts the build up of cholesterols and strengthens the blood vessels.
Four research papers presented at the American Association for Cancer Research
conference in Phoenix suggest green tea is useful in fighting certain types of cancer, in addition to lowering cholesterol, preventing heart disease, boosting oral hygiene and weight loss.
Drinking just two cups, but probably more like four cups, a day of green tea may retard the growth of certain tumor cells, researchers agreed.
Iman Hakim, a researcher at the University of Arizona Cancer Center, showed that cigarette smokers who drank four cups a day of decaffeinated green tea for four months cut the
cellular damage caused by cigarettes.
"What we found was significant," she said, referring to tests done on the urine of the 118
smokers in the study. The research stopped short of finding that genes damaged from smoking can be repaired by green tea. That is the subject of new research her colleagues are now doing.
Other research presented Tuesday by Jia-Sheng Wang, from Texas Tech University, showed green tea can prevent liver cancer, the third-leading cause of cancer deaths in the
world. And Nurulain Zaveri, a researcher at SRI International in Menlo Park, Calif., found that green tea may not only prevent cancer but may become a treatment for those with the disease.
Green tea has been shown to be effective against lung, prostate, liver and esophageal cancer, among others.
Protects Teeth & Strengthens Bones Tea contains fluoride that helps protect against tooth decay and gum disease. This
identified mineral also strengthens bones and prevents osteoporosis.
Improves Digestion Tea helps the kidney digest fatty food by increasing the flow of digestive juices.
Prevent Food Poisoning The catechins in tea are a powerful sterilizing agent, which kills germs and bacteria. Tea
prevents food poisoning by fighting against stomach diseases caused by harmful bacterias.
Look and Feel Younger
Studies suggested that the high concentration of antioxidants in tea have an anti-aging effect.
Strengthen the Immune System
High concentration of vitamin C in green tea helps prevent flu and cold. Moreover, the polyphenols in tea have shown to increase the number of white blood cells in our immune system.
Prevents Arthritis
Drinking green tea could help keep arthritis at bay, say scientists. It has been linked to preventing coronary heart disease, stroke and certain types of cancer. But now researchers
in Sheffield have found that two compounds found in green tea, EGCG (epigallocatchin gallate) and ECG (epicatechin gallate) can help prevent osteoarthritis by blocking the enzyme that destroys cartilage.
