Green tea is a natural defender. Air pollution, exposure to sunlight, and smoke create free radicals that damage both the hair and skin. Over time, the onslaught of free radicals contributes to the appearance of physical aging. Protecting ourselves from these free radicals with powerful antioxidants, such as those found in green tea, is vital for preventing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles on our skin, and maintaining shiny, healthy hair. Green tea has been consumed in eastern Asia for centuries, being utilized in traditional Chinese and Ayurvedic medicines as a stimulant, diuretic, and astringent. Green tea has also been observed to regulate body temperature and blood sugar while promoting digestion and improving mental processes. FSS Japanese Green Tea Extract G harnesses the power of Camellia oleifera leaf extract for further implementation in the cosmetic and personal care industry. 

Camellia oleifera is a type of green tea plant that is mostly known for the oil produced from its seeds. The plant is believed to have originated in China, but has since grown in popularity throughout the world. Camellia oleifera is known to offer many beneficial properties similar to Camellia sinensis, a widely known tea. Third-party research has studied green tea’s antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties and have attributed them to the polyphenolic flavonoid content, typically referred to as catechins. 

Additionally, green tea is known to contain polyphenols that have antioxidant activity and function as reactive oxygen species scavengers against the superoxide anions; the polyphenols also scavenge hydroxyl and peroxyl radicals while inhibiting lipid peroxidation and the oxidation of low-density lipoproteins. It is believed that these radicals increase the risk of certain cancers and are partly responsible for the physical appearance of aging. Green tea’s anti-inflammatory properties have also been known to be helpful in treating arthritis, gout, dermatosis, and other inflammatory conditions.

FSS Japanese Green Tea Extract G offers the opportunity to capitalize on the benefits associated with Camellia oleifera in a variety of cosmetic and personal care formulations.
