    I have some practical experience in using EGCG, via green tea extract to control brain inflammation. Brain inflammation is not just about dementia & AD, but also is a hypothesis for treatment resistant depression as well. My experience includes 3 daily doses of green tea extract providing about 1 gram of EGCG per day, approximated at 45% of green tea extract as EGCG. BTW numerous studies and research show EGCG to reduce IL1, IL6, and TNFa and it readily crosses the BBB. Also numerous studies show that green tea consumption reduces AD instance by up to 80%.
