Abstract
Green tea is rich in catechins, particularly (−)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), which act as potent antioxidants and can help to prevent oxidative stress-related diseases. This article revealed the importance of green tea catechins in mitigating the risk of complex diseases such as cardiovascular disease, cancer, and neurological diseases. It also highlighted the potential side effects of excessive green tea consumption, emphasising the need for moderation. The review covered a wide range of potential health benefits of green tea, including its effects on weight loss, diabetes, metabolic syndrome, and cognitive decline. Additionally, the collection of research articles elaborated on the antioxidant and neuroprotective properties of green tea, as well as its potential role in preventing skin cancer and improving cognitive function. Overall, the evidence presented underscores the potential of green tea as a valuable dietary component in inhibiting diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular, cancer, and infectious illness, while also emphasising the importance of green tea consumption in a balanced manner.
