Figure 2

Only green tea increased flow-mediated dilation (FMD). Subjects consumed 200 mg of EGCG as isolated EGCG, GTE, or green tea after fasting overnight. An equal volume of hot water served as control. Green tea significantly increased FMD compared to GTE, EGCG, and water as control. Water slightly decreased FMD, whereas EGCG and GTE had little effects. Data are means ± SEM from n = 50 subjects. All p-values by repeated measures ANOVA followed by post hoc Bonferroni.
