XGT Healthy Energy Drink Mix - Science

Fresh Green Tea Leaves

Here,"fresh" means that our freshly-picked green tea leaves never go through a drying process. Within 4 hours of being harvested our green tea leaves begin an exclusive cold water extraction process; think of it in terms of the vegetables you eat, you wouldn't want to eat dry or processed vegetables would you?

Because fresh green tea leaves can't be stored for long periods of time, almost all of the commercially available green tea products including extracts and tea bags are made from dried green tea leaves. However, many tea companies even leading-brand tea manufacturers try to confuse consumers by using words such as "fresh", "fresh brewed", or "natural tea leaves". No matter what kind of wording they use, it's clear that their green tea products are made from dry or processed green tea leaves.

The Patented Extraction Process

Cold water only, no chemicals, organic solvents or alcohols used

Most commercially available green tea extracts are made using alcohol, organic solvents or chemicals to remove polyphenols from the tea leaves. Jackie Chan's XGT Energy Green Tea uses a patented extraction method to aquire the nutrients from the fresh green tea leaves using only cold water. This proprietary cell-broken extraction process preserves all the natural nutrients, taste and color contained in fresh green tea leaves, providing a unique, fresh green tea extract naturally high in polyphenols (antioxidants, including ECGC known and recognized as the most important and powerful polyphenol available, found only in green tea), vitamins, minerals, amino acids, fiber and more. Jackie Chan's XGT Energy Green Tea extract is the only brand that is 100% chemical free and 100% natural.

Drinking just one serving of XGT Energy Tea has the nutritional benefit of up to four cups of traditionally brewed tea. With XGT Energy Drink no brewing is needed, just add hot or cold water and stir.

But more importantly, Jackie Chan's XGT Energy Green Tea extract is made from 100% natural fresh green tea extract. Green tea color and green tea taste naturally varies in harvest seasons. The natural green tea color and taste in our products may vary from season to season; however, we make sure that the polyphenol content of every batch meets our strict specifications.

To guarantee the potency of green tea polyphenols during storage, the water residue content in our final products is very low (less than 2%), which means it takes a little more time for the extract in our products to completely dissolve.

Our headquarter facilities located in Salt Lake City, Utah utilizes an analytical laboratory equipped with the most advanced analytical equipment available in the world today to support our domestic quality control work.

What is Tea?

All tea comes from the Camellia Sinensis plant. How the leaves are processed and their levels of contact with oxygen determine the resulting types of tea and the polyphenol content. During oxidation, tea leaves undergo natural chemical reactions that result in distinctive color and taste characteristics. This oxidation process reduces the polyphenol content and other nutrients in the tea.

What are Polyphenols?

Polyphenols (flavonoids) are powerful antioxidants that are 100 times more potent than vitamin C and 25 times more than vitamin E. Polyphenols are important for fighting harmful free radicals, which cause degenerative diseases and immune system deficiency. Studies show that consuming foods high in polyphenols can promote good health, maintain normal weight and stimulate the immune system. Green tea contains higher antioxidants and flavonoid polyphenols than black and oolong teas. The polyphenols that exist in green tea are mainly (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (ECGC), (-)-epigallocatechin (EGC), (-)-epicatechin gallate (ECG), (+)-epicatechin (EC), (-)-gallocatechin gallate (GCG), and (-)-catechin. ECGC is the most powerful and abundant of the six major catechins found in green tea.

Green Tea Benefits

Regular consumption of green tea is shown to help the body in so many ways. It's one of the easiest things we can do for ourselves to promote a longer and healthier life. Green tea has been shown to: boost the immune system, regulate cholesterol levels, speed up fat burning, help promote energy, reduce the risk of heart attack & stroke, decrease the risk of certain types of cancer, protect the body against free radical damage, reduce the risk of osteoporosis & help to build stronger bones, fights harmful bacteria and viruses, helps to protect against the build-up of sticky plaque in the arteries,prevents cavities and gum disease, and reduces the risk of developing rheumatoid arthritis

Q. What does drinking tea do for my heath?

A. Find out in the "Why is our Tea Different" and Nutrients section on this site.

Q. How much tea do I need to drink each day?

A. Studies show that one cup of green tea with about 30 to 60 milligrams of polyphenols isn't enough. To receive the maximum benefit of tea, you should drink between four and ten cups of green tea, or get 120 to 600 milligrams of tea polyphenols, every day. Remember, just one serving of XGT Energy green tea is equal to 4 cups of regular green tea.

Q. What are free radicals?

A. Free radicals are unstable molecules such as hydrogen, nitric oxide (NO) and oxygen (O2). They occur naturally in the body and are the result of chemical reactions during normal cellular processes. Additionally they can come from exposure to pollution, sunlight, cigarette smoke, auto and industrial emissions and other toxins. Free radicals attack other molecules in the body and can damage cells resulting in the formation of another free radical and the process just continues. Free radical damage is a possible contributor to chronic and aging diseases including cancer, heart disease, stroke, rheumatoid arthritis, cataracts and Alzheimer's disease.

Q. What are antioxidants?

A. Antioxidants are substances that prevent or slow the breakdown of another substance by oxygen. They help prevent free radical formation inside the body, preventing or delaying cell and tissue damage caused by free radicals.

Q. Is green tea a good source of antioxidants?

A. Green tea has more antioxidant protection than either vitamins C or E. In 1997, Lester A. Mitscher of the University of Kansas demonstrated that at least three of green tea's catechins outperform a number of other common natural antioxidants.

Q. Is green tea better than black tea?

A. For maximum health benefits it often is. Fresh green tea leaves contain the highest polyphenol amounts. All teas - black, green and oolong are from the same plant, Camellia sinensis, and contain polyphenols. It's the amount of processing each undergoes that determines the variety of tea and the eventual polyphenol content. Black tea is allowed to dry slowly, essentially fermenting, which oxidizes the leaves and deactivates many of the polyphenols. Oolong tea is dried (oxidized) some, but not completely, before being steamed to stop the oxidation process. Green tea is steamed before it's dried, which deactivates the enzyme that causes oxidation and locks in a high polyphenol content-60 percent more than black tea.

Q. Does tea have caffeine?

A. Yes. Even decaffeinated tea has a very small amount of caffeine. Green tea has less caffeine than black or oolong tea. The amount of caffeine depends on how tea is brewed, how long it's brewed, and what part of the tea plant - the leaf/bud comes from and the size of the leaf when brewed. Tea bags usually have smaller leaves or pieces of leaves and result in more caffeine upon brewing.

Q. Is unflavored tea healthier than flavored tea?

A. No. Flavorings simply add taste and/or sweetness to tea. They don't affect the underlying health benefits of the tea itself.

Q. Why are green tea extracts better than regular tea bags?

A. Extracts concentrate the beneficial compounds in tea, delivering a greater benefit per serving. One gram of dried green tea leaves contains up to 10 percent polyphenols. That gram of tea, placed in a tea bag, has a polyphenol dissolution rate of 30 percent, which means that less than one third of the beneficial components fully dissolve and are available. The result: once brewed, a typical cup of green tea has just 30 to 60 milligrams of polyphenols. And 150 to 300 milligrams of polyphenols are needed for maximum health benefits, which means that a person needs to drink four to six cups of green tea every day. While people in China and other Pacific Rim countries regularly drink this much, most Americans don't or won't.

Q. What about liquids and capsules?

A. Capsules containing extracts have been the most popular dosage form for green tea polyphenols for some time. However, when solid dosage forms (capsules or tablets) are ingested, dissolution and absorption is low. And slower dissolution and absorption rates decrease the bioavailability of beneficial polyphenols and can irritate the digestive tract. Plus many extracts are just that, extracts. They contain individual components from tea, but not all components. Some researchers think that the benefits that come from tea are the result of all components working together. Liquid dosage forms offer a much higher dissolution rate and a 400 percent faster absorption rate than solid dosage forms. One cup of Jackie Chan's XGT Energy Green Tea Extract instant green tea has 300 milligrams of polyphenols as well as all of green tea's natural healthy nutrients. One serving offers the same benefit of absorbed polyphenols as taking 1,200 milligrams of green tea capsules every day.
