Pharmanex Tegreen (120 capsules) (Ireland/EU)

A high-concentration green tea antioxidant supplement for Irish adults who want standardised polyphenol support — without the caffeine load

Picture a Cork-based professional who drinks two or three cups of green tea a day hoping to support their antioxidant intake — but wonders whether loose-leaf brew actually delivers a consistent, measurable dose. Pharmanex Tēgreen 97 is designed for exactly that scenario: each capsule delivers a standardised 97% polyphenol concentrate rich in EGCG, equivalent to approximately seven cups of green tea, with only ~9mg of natural caffeine per capsule. At 120 capsules per pack (a 30–60 day supply at €79.90), it offers a precise, concentrated alternative to inconsistent brewed tea or underdosed pharmacy-shelf green tea supplements — particularly relevant during Ireland's long indoor heating season, when dietary variety can narrow and antioxidant support becomes harder to maintain through diet alone.

Who It's For

• Best suited for: Adults seeking a high-standardisation green tea polyphenol supplement; those sensitive to caffeine who still want the antioxidant benefits of green tea; people who take LifePak+ and want to significantly increase their concentrated EGCG intake; anyone who wants a supplement regulated under EU food supplement standards (FSAI-compliant).
• Less suited for: Pregnant or breastfeeding women (consult a GP or pharmacist first); individuals with caffeine sensitivity who cannot tolerate even trace amounts; those looking for a collagen or topical skincare solution.
• Pairs well with: Nu Skin LifePak+ (complementary antioxidant breadth); Marine Omega (omega-3 anti-inflammatory support); Beauty Focus Collagen+ (inner nutrition pairing).

What Makes Tēgreen 97 Different

The critical differentiator is standardisation level. "Green tea extract" on a label tells you very little without knowing the percentage of polyphenols guaranteed per capsule. Tēgreen 97 is standardised to 97% polyphenols per capsule, with a particular focus on epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) — the most extensively researched catechin in green tea. A 2014 review in the European Journal of Clinical Nutrition (PMID: 24518747) examined the bioavailability of green tea catechins, noting EGCG as the dominant bioactive compound relevant to antioxidant activity.

Key Ingredient Profile

• Green tea catechins (97% polyphenols, standardised): Rich in EGCG. The 97% standardisation figure refers to the proportion of the extract that consists of polyphenolic compounds — substantially above the typical range seen in mainstream pharmacy supplements.
• Natural caffeine (~9mg per capsule): Far below the ~50–70mg found in a typical brewed cup of green tea. This makes Tēgreen suitable for those who have reduced their coffee or tea intake for caffeine reasons but still want polyphenol support.
• Antioxidant equivalence: Each capsule provides the antioxidant equivalent of approximately seven cups of green tea — delivered in a single, consistent dose without the variability of brewing time, water temperature, or leaf quality that affects actual cup-to-cup polyphenol content.

Supply Format

• 120 capsules per pack
• 30-day supply at 4 capsules/day; 60-day supply at 2 capsules/day

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Tēgreen 97 available in Ireland, and how quickly does it ship?

Yes. Tēgreen 97 ships from the EU Nu Skin warehouse and typically arrives in Ireland within 3–5 business days. Because it ships from within the EU, there are no customs duties or import charges — the price you see (€79.90 for 120 capsules) is the price you pay. It is not currently stocked in Boots or pharmacies; it is available exclusively through Nu Skin affiliates and the Nu Skin Ireland website.

Do I need to create an account or sign up to purchase?

No. You can purchase Tēgreen 97 as a regular retail customer without registering as a Nu Skin member or committing to any subscription. Simply add to cart and check out.

How does the 97% polyphenol standardisation compare to what's on shelves at Irish pharmacies or Holland & Barrett?

Most green tea extracts sold in Irish pharmacies and health food stores are standardised to between 45% and 70% polyphenols. Tēgreen 97 is standardised to 97% polyphenols per capsule, with a specific focus on EGCG — the most researched green tea catechin. This means a larger proportion of each capsule is active polyphenolic compound, rather than inert plant matter or fillers. Standardisation level matters because it determines how consistent each dose is from capsule to capsule.

Why is the caffeine content so low compared to a cup of green tea?

A brewed cup of green tea typically contains 30–70mg of caffeine depending on brewing time and leaf quality. Tēgreen 97 delivers approximately 9mg of natural caffeine per capsule — a fraction of that. This is because the extraction process concentrates the polyphenolic compounds (catechins, EGCG) while not amplifying caffeine proportionally. For people in Ireland who have already reduced coffee intake and are wary of adding caffeine back through supplements, this makes Tēgreen a practical option for polyphenol support.

Can I take Tēgreen 97 alongside LifePak+?

Yes, these two supplements are designed to complement each other. LifePak+ includes a broad antioxidant complex that contains a modest amount of green tea extract as one of many ingredients. Tēgreen 97 provides a much more concentrated, targeted EGCG-rich polyphenol dose on top of that foundation. Nu Skin positions them as stackable — Tēgreen is often combined with LifePak+ by those specifically focused on antioxidant support. If you are on prescription medication, check with your GP or pharmacist before combining new supplements.

Is this product regulated as a food supplement under Irish/EU law?

Yes. Tēgreen 97 is a food supplement governed by EU Directive 2002/46/EC on food supplements, as enforced in Ireland by the Food Safety Authority of Ireland (FSAI). It is not classified as a medicine and is not regulated by the HPRA. Food supplements sold in the EU must comply with safety, labelling, and compositional rules — but health claims on supplements are governed by EU Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006. No disease-treatment claims are made for this product.

Is the 30-capsule trial pack a good way to start?

If you are new to high-standardisation green tea supplements and want to assess your personal tolerance before committing to the 120-capsule pack, the 30-capsule pack at €28.00 is a sensible starting point. It provides roughly a 15–30 day supply depending on dosage, and is available with the same EU shipping terms as the full-size pack.
