about this product.

Green Tea Phytosome is a concentrated green tea extract built around EGCG — epigallocatechin gallate — the principal polyphenol in green tea that is most studied for its antioxidant and metabolic properties. What makes this formulation distinct from a standard green tea capsule is the phytosome delivery system, in which the EGCG is bound to a phospholipid complex. This bonding is designed to improve absorption through the gut wall compared to free polyphenol extracts, which are notoriously poorly absorbed.

In practical terms, that means less of the active compound wasted in transit and more reaching systemic circulation. Green tea polyphenols are studied for their potential to support healthy metabolic function, fat oxidation, and cellular defence against oxidative stress — relevant whether you are managing weight, training regularly, or simply looking to reinforce a nutrition-first approach to long-term health.

This sits well alongside a whole-food diet as a targeted nutritional complement. It is particularly suited to those who do not drink green tea regularly, or who want a more consistent and concentrated intake of EGCG than a brewed cup reliably delivers. Thorne is a brand our clinical team respects for its manufacturing rigour and formulation transparency. The phytosome technology here reflects a considered approach to bioavailability — not a marketing add-on, but a meaningful structural choice.

frequently asked.

What is a phytosome and why does it matter?

A phytosome is a complex in which a plant-derived compound — here, EGCG — is bound to a phospholipid. Phospholipids are naturally compatible with the gut wall, so the complex is generally absorbed more efficiently than the free polyphenol. It is a formulation approach used to make a given dose more effective, not simply to justify a higher price.

Does this product contain caffeine?

Green tea extract naturally contains some caffeine, though the amount per capsule is considerably less than a brewed cup of coffee. If you are sensitive to caffeine, check the packaging for the specific content and consider taking it earlier in the day.

How does this compare to drinking green tea?

Brewed green tea varies considerably in its EGCG content depending on steep time, water temperature, and leaf quality. A standardised extract in phytosome form offers a more consistent and concentrated intake, which is particularly useful if you want a reliable daily amount without drinking multiple cups.

Who might want to avoid this?

Those who are pregnant, breastfeeding, sensitive to caffeine, or taking medications that interact with antioxidant compounds should consult a doctor before use. Green tea extracts at higher concentrations are not suitable for everyone.

When is the best time to take it?

Most people take it with a meal, which can help with tolerability. Avoid taking it late in the evening if you are sensitive to caffeine, as the naturally occurring caffeine in green tea extract may affect sleep.

QQVerified Buyer

The first adrenal support that made a quick difference.

4 days ago

Gentle on a sensitive stomach, and I feel like myself again. I had tried two other glandulars before this and neither sat right.

MRVerified Buyer

Steadier mornings within a fortnight.

1 week ago

I was sceptical about glandulars, but my mid-afternoon crash has genuinely eased. One capsule with breakfast and I forget about it.

ALVerified Buyer

Subtle, but real.

2 weeks ago

Not a stimulant, which is exactly what I wanted. It took about ten days, then I realised I wasn’t dreading the afternoon any more.

SKVerified Buyer

My clinician recommended it.

3 weeks ago

Bought after a blood panel flagged a flat cortisol curve. Easy to take, no jitters, and the sourcing is refreshingly transparent.

TPVerified Buyer

Recovery feels faster.

1 month ago

Training hard through a stressful stretch and this has helped me bounce back between sessions. Already on my second bottle.

DVVerified Buyer

Does what it says.

1 month ago

No frills, one ingredient, a sensible dose. I appreciate that it is designed to be used for a season rather than forever.
