Egcg for fat loss

Shoot for 750mg EGCG.

So if your capsules are 500mg and 50% EGCG, than you want 3 capsules/day (spread out)
 
Cool thank you. The ones I have now are two tabs for 750mg 100% egcg so I'll take two tabs spread out. That's awesome thanks
 
Can we drink green tea instead of taking capsules containing EGCG because it will come in natural form rather having processed on it and well, thanks to everyone for giving suggestions on EGCG capsule dosages. It will really help me out to lose unwanted weight.

You can drink green tea if you like, but it is gonna be harder to get the optimal amount of EGCG this way.

Here are some mean values of EGCG from various teas

Brewed green tea: 180mg
Brewed green tea, decaffeinated: 60mg
Brewed green tea, flavored: 45mg
Ready-to-drink green tea: 10mg
Brewed oolong tea: 80mg
Brewed black tea: 20mg

Water temperature and brewing time will effect these values, but not by much. Your best bet is to supplement with EGCG and drink tea for leisure.

How your post reads suggest you believe natural > synthetic. This is not true. For EGCG, supplementating with EGCG is going to be more efficient then trying to get equal EGCG amounts from brewing tea.
 
In my case I just had bought a bottle of egcg. The store had a bottle with each cap being already at the recommended dosages listed here so I just grabbed that
