Green Tea:
Isntree - Green Tea Fresh Serum- $20
Green tea is rich in catechins and EGCG is the most abundant and active catechin in green tea.
Catechins, especially EGCG, have been shown to inhibit the formation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs). They do this by interacting with proteins and sugars, thereby preventing the glycation process.
