Abstract

After water, tea is the most popular beverage. Camellia silences leaves are used to make it (family: Theaceae). Oolong, green, black, and Ilex teas are among the many kinds of tea produced, contingent on the region's post-harvest treatments as well as palatability. Tea, which is high in natural antioxidants, is said to help against malignancies of the colon, esophagus, and lungs, as well as urinary stones and dental cavities. Tea, which has been exposed to be ant cariogenic, antimicrobial, anti-carcinogenic, anti-inflammatory, as well as anti-oxidant, may be used as a preventative measure. Nowadays, healthy foods that include active free radical scavengers are extremely popular. Polyphenols, caffeine, and amino acids are the main chemical components of green tea. Tea also includes flavonoids, which are anti-oxidant chemicals with a variety of health benefits. It is generally recognized that some foods' phenolic chemicals may have health advantages. Polyphenols, which are found in tea, has been related to positive benefits on human health. India is one of the world's foremost tea growers, exporters, and consumers. The present research focuses on tea production, composition, and health advantages.
