ActiGreen Original Green Tea Powder offers a convenient way to obtain the active constituents of Green Tea in an readily absorbed form. With its documented  content of Catechins and the potent antioxidant compound EGCg (epigallocatechin gallate), ActiGreen™ provides strong antioxidant benefits.

ActiGreen Original Green Tea Powder was developed in Denmark in 1998 by PharmaGreenApS founder Torben Damm, who had seen the consumers growing interest in green tea.  Just like then, the interest is focused on green tea's healthy properties, especially the antioxidants.  A steady stream of scientific articles publishes the tea's significance in terms of health.  ActiGreen™ Original Green Tea Powder is developed in terms of the use of green tea for therapeutic purposes and is therefore analyzed for its content of catechins, the active ingredients in green tea.

ActiGreen Original Green Tea Powder contain an amount of catechins, 2-3 times stronger than an average cup of green tea.

Green tea originates from the same plant as black tea, white tea and oolong tea. The tea plant, which has the fine Latin name Camellia Sinensis, is typically referred to as the tea bush, but botanically it is not a bush at all, but rather a tree. If you let the "tea bush" grow wild, it can reach a height of more than 20 metres!

The reason why the tea tree is referred to as the tea bush is because the tree is constantly cut down in height, so that it is easier to pick the tea leaves.

What distinguishes the different tea types is the way the tea leaves are treated after they have been picked.

Immediately after the tea leaves are picked from the tea bush, they are transported to the tea factory, where the leaves are heat treated and dried. Unlike Black tea, the tea leaves retain their greenish color after the heat treatment and drying has taken place. After this, the tea is basically ready for use.

It is worth noting that the tea that is called White tea is in principle Green Tea. White tea is made in much the same way as green tea, but only newly sprouted tea leaves and buds are used. White tea got its name because the leaves are provided with white down that looks like silver needles, therefore White tea is also called Silver Tips.

Red tea, Chamomile tea and herbal tea have nothing to do with tea. These products originate from completely different plants, but have probably been called tea because they are prepared in the same way as real tea.

Our tea extracts are made on the basis of green tea from Asia. The extracts are produced in Germany, and our German producer controls the tea plantations that supply the tea, as well as analyzes the tea.
