Exclusive Weight Loss Program Based On Clinical Trials In Japan!
Origin BioMedicinals Inc. and its partner, Mitsui Norin & Co. Ltd., Tokyo, are now providing an exclusive weight loss program to the North America marketplace based on clinical trials performed in Japan. The results announced in 2003 are clear: 10% of body fat was lost in 3 months by taking 600 mg per day of Polyphenon green tea catechins. These trial results were so convincing that weight loss claims have now been approved by the Japanese regulatory authority. For the first time, Polyphenon brand catechins are now available to the North American public for weight loss.
Polyphenon 100 Weight Loss Program
Origin BioMedicinals Inc. recommends taking six Polyphenon 100 capsules per day (600 mg catechins) for 3 months. Take
2 capsules approx. 1/2 hour prior to each meal. Very heavy individuals may wish to take up to eight capsules per day. Two
bottles of Polyphenon 100 capsules are required per month (90 caps/bottle). During the program, Origin recommends that
you eat sensibly and maintain regular exercise.
Green tea catechins, a class of polyphenols, are known to provide weight loss by increasing the metabolism of fats by the liver
(thermogenic effect), inhibiting lipase (fat absorption enzyme) in the digestive tract, and providing a feeling of satiety and
fullness. Catechins do not function as a stimulant. During the Polyphenon weight loss program, you will also receive the many
other health-promoting benefits which are being reported for green tea catechins.
Scientific Background for Weight Loss
Five independent clinical trials with a total of 500 subjects
have documented that Polyphenon green tea catechins have
reduced body weight, especially abdominal body fat. These
results were even more dramatic in obese subjects, who
observed a greater reduction. In one particular double-blind
study involving 80 subjects, the Polyphenon treatment group
received 588 catechins daily and showed a significant (P<0.01)
weight loss of 1.7Kg in 12 weeks (Figure 1). A separate study conducted in Switzerland supported these results (Dullo, et al. 1999). This study found that green tea weight loss programs can raise metabolic rates and speed up fat oxidation. Compared with placebo and caffeine alone, subjects taking green tea extracts have a significant increase in daily energy expenditure. The study noted that "green tea is superior to stimulant diet drugs, which can have adverse cardiac effects, especially in obese individuals with hypertension and other
cardiovascular complications."
Polyphenon Decreases Abdominal Fat
In another Polyphenon study, healthy male and female subjects were given 500-600 mg per day of Polyphenon catechins delivered in
beverage format over 12 weeks without any dietary restriction.
Polyphenon significantly reduced abdominal fat, as
measured by CT scan. Other studies support these findings. In a study of 1200 Taiwanese adults, adults who consumed tea more than once a week for six months had 19.6% less body fat and a 2.1%
reduction in waist to hip ratio compared to non-tea drinkers
(Wu, 2003). Another study found a significant decrease in body
weight, body mass index, waist circumference, body fat ratio,
abdominal fat, glucose, insulin and total cholestrol in a group of
23 healthy adult males who took 483 mg catechins per day over a twelve week period. In those who took 118 mg
daily, only weight, body mass index and insulin had changed.
Polyphenon Brand - the Medical Standard
Polyphenon extracts are also now completing Phase III clinical trials with the US FDA. Polyphenon brand is quickly becoming the recognized medical-quality source of green tea catechins. Polyphenon 100 capsules contain a high-purity, decaffeinated green tea extract derived from carefully selected tea leaves, and a superior extraction and refinement process. Each capsule contains 100 mg catechins (53.7% EGCg), suitable for professional prescription for a variety of therapy regimes.
