Abstract in brief

Green tea is widely consumed and has been studied for its potential health benefits, including protection against neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s, though results are mixed.
Research shows that green tea catechins, especially EGCG, may help prevent or treat neurodegenerative damage by targeting protein accumulation, inflammation, and oxidative stress in the brain.
However, discrepancies in study results highlight the need for more rigorous research to account for confounding factors such as beverage temperature, lifestyle, and genetic differences to better understand green tea's neuroprotective effects.
