Abstract in brief

  • Green tea and its polyphenols, especially epigallocatechin-3-gallate, have been shown in animal studies to prevent tumor formation and growth by affecting enzyme activities and cell signaling pathways.
  • These compounds help inhibit cancer cell growth, promote cell death, and reduce the ability of cancer to spread or invade other tissues (metastasis and angiogenesis).
  • The review discusses both laboratory and animal research, as well as existing human data, to explore how drinking tea might be useful for cancer prevention in people.]
