Typical dosages in research studies: EGCG: 270400 mg daily (often as part of total catechins) Total catechins: Extracts typically standardised to contain 5090% total catechins (with EGCG as a fraction of this) Caffeine: 100200 mg daily (often naturally present in green tea extracts) Duration: Minimum 12 weeks for measurable effects on body composition Brewed green tea equivalents: A standard cup (240 ml) of brewed green tea typically contains 50100 mg of total catechins (of which approximately 3050 mg may be EGCG) and 2550 mg of caffeine, depending on brewing time, temperature, and tea quality
Given these distinct mechanisms, directly comparing these therapies is crucial to identifying the optimal strategy for improving cardiovascular outcomes in patients with HFpEF and DM
