To investigate the degree of absorption of flavan-3-ols in the small intestine, human subjects
with an ileostomy ingested 200 mg of Polyphenon E, a green tea extract, after which ileal …

The molecular mechanism by which tea polyphenols decrease the micellar solubility of
cholesterol is not completely clear. To clarify this mechanism, this study investigated the …

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of green tea (‐)‐epigallocatechin‐3‐
gallate (EGCG) on the depletion of accumulated fat in differentiated 3T3‐L1 adipocytes …

Cocoa tea (Camellia ptilophylla) is a naturally decaffeinated tea plant. Previously we found
that cocoa tea demonstrated a beneficial effect against high-fat diet induced obesity, hepatic …

This study used samples processed with an innovative manufacturing process to explore the
dynamic changes of large-leaf yellow tea (LYT) in color, aroma, and taste substances, and …

Although tea polyphenols are reported to improve serum glucose and lipid levels by
inhibiting amylase activity and reducing lipid absorption, in vivo data are lacking. We …

The mechanisms underlying the effect of epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) on the micellar
solubility of cholesterol were examined. EGCG eliminated both cholesterol and …

Administration of black-tea polyphenols (BTP) simultaneously reduced lymphatic recovery of
