According to research conducted by relevant departments, 1 mg of tea polyphenols has the ability to scavenge excessive free radicals harmful to the human body, which is equivalent to 9 micrograms of superoxide dismutase (SOD), which is much higher than other similar substances. Tea polyphenols can block lipid peroxidation and remove active enzymes. According to the test results of Japan's Okuda Takuyu, it is confirmed that the anti-aging effect of tea polyphenols is 18 times stronger than vitamin E.
