• Camellia sinensis is the most consumed beverage in the world aside from water, and has many beneficial health effects. It is an important cash crop, and is grown commercially in about 30 different countries. It is manufactured by drying fresh tea leaves and contains characteristic polyphenolic compounds, (–)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), (–)-epigallocatechin (EGC), (–)-epicatechin-3-gallate (ECG) and (–)-epicatechin (EC). These compounds are commonly known as catechins.
