Tea catechins, rich in (-)-epigallocatechin gallate and (-)-
epicatechin gallate, or heat-treated tea catechins in which about 50%
of the (-)-epigallocatechin gallate and (-)-epicatechin gallate in tea
catechins was epimerized to (-)-gallocatechin gallate and (-)-catechin
gallate, were fed to rats at 1% level for 23 d. Visceral fat
deposition and the concentration of hepatic triacylglycerol were
significantly lower in the tea catechin and heat-treated tea catechin
groups than in the control group. The activities of fatty acid
synthase and the malic enzyme in the liver cytosol were significantly
lower in the two catechin groups than in the control group. In
contrast, the activities of carnitine palmitoyltransferase and acyl-
CoA oxidase in the liver homogenate were not significantly different
among the three groups. These results suggest that the reduction in
activities of enzymes related to hepatic fatty acid synthesis by the
feeding of tea catechins or heat-treated tea catechins can cause
reductions of hepatic triacylglycerol and possibly of visceral fat
deposition.

Hmmm .... the title says says it reduces the visceral fat and the
summary says possibly reduces it which is different from the title and
so have to wonder what else might be misleading.
Wonder if it does actually work, if drinking a VOLUME of an Omer is
the best "Approach"
In suppose we could ask "what would Jesus do"

Abstract:
β-Thalassemia patients suffer from secondary iron overload caused by
increased iron absorption and multiple blood transfusions.
Excessive iron catalyzes free-radical formation, causing oxidative
tissue damage.
Non-transferrin bound iron (NTBI) detected in thalassemic plasma is
highly toxic and chelatable.
Desferrioxamine and deferiprone are used to treat the iron overload,
but many side effects are found.
Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) and epicatechin gallate (ECG) in green
tea (GT) show strong antioxidant properties.
We separated the EGCG and ECG from GT extract using an HPLC, and
examined their iron-binding and free-radical scavenging activities.
They bound Fe3+ rapidly to form a complex with a predominant
absorption at 560 nm. EGCG and ECG bound chemical Fe3+ and chelated
the NTBI in a time- and dose dependent manner.
They also decreased oxidative stress in iron-treated erythrocytes.
In conclusion, EGCG and ECG could be natural iron chelators that
efficiently decrease the levels of NTBI and free radicals in iron
overload.

Lecithin, a precursor of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, has a
positive effect on brain and memory functions.
In a prospective, randomized, double-blind study, the effect of
buerlecithin fluid (BLF) was investigated in comparison with
placebo in patients with mild cognitive disorders.
A total of 96 ambulatory patients (> 55 years) were admitted to the
study.
Treatment duration was 84 days.
In both treatment groups, a clear improvement in all the cognitive
parameters
tested was seen.
The main target measure, the overall Sandoz Clinical Assessment
Geriatric (SCAG)
score improved by 18.7 (test substance) and 16.4 (placebo) points (p
=
0.1620).
A statistically relevant improvement of the secondary target
parameter,
response in the SCAG score, was achieved with BLF (85.4%) in
comparison
with placebo (62.5%) (p = 0.018).
Furthermore, BLF demonstrated significant superiority in a
number of the other target measures.
The study also confirmed the very good tolerability of BLF.

Title Lecithin consumption raises serum-free-choline levels.
Wurtman RJ, Hirsch MJ, Growdon JH.
Consumption of choline by rats sequentially increases serum-choline,
brain-choline, and brain-acetylcholine concentrations.
In man consumption of choline increases in levels in the serum and
cerebrospinal fluid; its administration is an effective way of
treating tardive dyskinesia.
We found that oral lecithin is considerably more effective in raising
human serum-choline levels than an equivalent quantity of choline
chloride.
30 minutes after ingestion of choline chloride (2-3 g free base),
serum-choline levels
rose by 86% and returned to normal values within 4 hours; 1 hour
after
lecithin
ingestion, these levels rose by 265% and remained significantly
raised
for 12 hours.
Lecithin may therefore be the method of choice for accelerating
acetylcholine synthesis by
increasing the availability of choline, its precursor in the blood.

catechins, rich in epigallocatechin gallate and epicatechin gallate
<<
Cocoa 'Vitamin' Health Benefits Could Outshine Penicillin
Science Daily -- The health benefits of epicatechin, a compound found
in cocoa, are so striking that it may rival penicillin and
anaesthesia
in terms of importance to public health, reports Marina Murphy in
Chemistry & Industry, the magazine of the SCI. Norman Hollenberg,
professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School, told C&I that
epicatechin is so important that it should be considered a vitamin.
Hollenberg has spent years studying the benefits of cocoa drinking on
the Kuna people in Panama. He found that the risk of 4 of the 5 most
common killer diseases: stroke, heart failure, cancer and diabetes,
is
reduced to less then 10% in the Kuna. They can drink up to 40 cups of
cocoa a week. Natural cocoa has high levels of epicatechin.
'If these observations predict the future, then we can say without
blushing that they are among the most important observations in the
history of medicine,' Hollenberg says. 'We all agree that penicillin
and anaesthesia are enormously important. But epicatechin could
potentially get rid of 4 of the 5 most common diseases in the western
world, how important does that make epicatechin?... I would say very
important'
Nutrition expert Daniel Fabricant says that Hollenberg's results,
although observational, are so impressive that they may even warrant
a
rethink of how vitamins are defined. Epicatechin does not currently
meet the criteria. Vitamins are defined as essential to the normal
functioning, metabolism, regulation and growth of cells and
deficiency
is usually linked to disease. At the moment, the science does not
support epicatechin having an essential role. But, Fabricant, who is
vice president scientific affairs at the Natural Products
Association,
says: 'the link between high epicatechin consumption and a decreased
risk of killer disease is so striking, it should be investigated
further. It may be that these diseases are the result of epicatechin
deficiency,' he says.
Currently, there are only 13 essential vitamins. An increase in the
number of vitamins would provide significant opportunity for
nutritional companies to expand their range of products. Flavanols
like epicatechin are removed for commercial cocoas because they tend
to have a bitter taste. So there is huge scope for nutritional
companies to develop epicatechin supplements or capsules
Epicatechin is also found in teas, wine, chocolate and some fruit and
vegetables.
