The recent study published in Current Developments in Nutrition acted as a follow-up to a 2019 study that associated green tea consumption with lower obesity, health risks, and improved gut health when tested on rats. In the new study, researchers evaluated the gut health of 40 participants (half with metabolic syndrome, half reported as healthy) after consuming the tea extracts for 28 days. After the 28 days, the participants then took a placebo in order to evaluate the differences. During the month of green tea consumption, researchers reported lower blood sugar levels for all participants, as well as decreased gut inflammation. They came to this conclusion after finding a reduction of pro-inflammatory proteins in fecal samples and a reduction of sugar ratios in urine.
