Tea (Camellia sinensis); Composition, The Effects on Metabolism and Health, Antioxidant Activity and The Use in Broiler Diets

Abstract

Tea is one of the cheap and very much consumed beverages. In recent years, its antioxidant properties and its effects on human health due to the phenolic matter contents of tea are one of the most studied subjects. In this article, chemistry of tea constituents, absorption, distribution, metabolism and elimination of its polyphenols, its effects on the metabolism and health, its antioxidant activity and studies about the effects of use of green tea extracts in broiler diets were discussed.
