Abstract

Tea (Camellia sinensis) is one of the most widely consumed beverages in the world. Tea extracts are source of polyphenols, which are antioxidant components. Green tea phenolic compounds are predominately composed of catechin derivatives, although other compounds such as flavonols and phenolic acids are also present in lower proportion. Camellia sinensis is commonly known as Tea which is most consummated beverage in the world. The diversify properties of the C. sinensis encourage us for new research. There are lots of finding in process on the tea. And there are some positive aspects also found. Present review is an attempt to summarize the various pharmacological effects particularly anti cancer and antioxidant activity may be a powerful tool for future era. In this whole study we can see how much tea is beneficial and may be it will prove a good tool for better treatment option.
