Abstract in brief

Green tea from Camellia sinensis contains antioxidants called catechins, which may help prevent cancer by inhibiting cell growth.
A comprehensive review of over 51 studies involving more than 16 million people suggests that green tea might have protective effects against certain cancers, especially in the digestive tract, breast, and prostate.
The evidence comes from different types of studies, including observational research and one clinical trial, but results are mainly summarized descriptively, indicating a need for further research to confirm green tea's role in cancer prevention.]
