    Questions and Answers about Life Extension, Theaflavin Standardized Extract

    Have a Question?

    Ask a Question
    • What is theaflavin good for?

      Theaflavin, a polyphenol found in black tea, offers several potential health benefits. It is known for its strong antioxidant properties, which may help protect cells from oxidative stress and reduce inflammation in the body. Theaflavin has been studied for its potential cardiovascular benefits, including supporting healthy cholesterol levels and promoting heart health.

    • What are theaflavins and thearubigins in tea?

      Theaflavins and thearubigins are polyphenolic compounds found primarily in black tea. They are formed during the oxidation process that occurs when green tea leaves are processed into black tea. Theaflavins contribute to the bright, coppery color of black tea and are known for their antioxidant properties.

    • What are theaflavins and catechins?

      Theaflavins and catechins are both types of polyphenols found in tea, but they are present in different forms of tea and have distinct characteristics. Catechins are the primary polyphenols found in green tea and are known for their potent antioxidant properties. During the oxidation process that transforms green tea into black tea, catechins undergo chemical changes, forming theaflavins and thearubigins.

    • What is the structure of theaflavin?

      Theaflavin has a complex molecular structure characterized by two flavanol subunits linked together. It consists of two catechin molecules joined by a seven-membered benzotropolone ring. This unique structure contributes to theaflavin's distinct chemical properties and potential health benefits.

    • What is the dietary source of theaflavin?

      The primary dietary source of theaflavin is black tea. Theaflavins are formed during the oxidation process that occurs when green tea leaves are processed into black tea. The concentration of theaflavins in black tea can vary depending on factors such as the tea variety, processing methods, and brewing techniques.

    • What are the properties of theaflavin?

      Theaflavin exhibits several notable properties that contribute to its potential health benefits. It is a powerful antioxidant, capable of neutralizing harmful free radicals in the body. Theaflavin has demonstrated anti-inflammatory properties in various studies, which may contribute to its potential cardiovascular and neuroprotective effects. Some research suggests that theaflavin may have antimicrobial properties and could potentially support immune function.
