がん

None of the large-scale epidemiological studies found a significant association of tea intake with a lower risk of cancer[1]. However, many case-control studies and cross-sectional studies (up to several hundreds people) show a decrease of the risk of cancer.

いずれの大規模疫学調査においても、お茶を飲む習慣と低い癌リスクの相関は見出されていません。 ただし、多くの(統計的検証を経ない)症例コントロール研究や横断的研究で癌リスクの低下は報告されています。

  • Breast cancer 乳がん
Two prospective studies with 35,004 women [2] → no association
  • Gastrointestinal cancer 胃腸がん
Prospective cohort 14873 men and 23667 women [3] → no association
Prospective cohort 11902 men and 14409 women [4] → no association
Prospective cohort 30370 men and 42481 women [5] → no association
Prospective cohort 18746 men and 26184 women [6] → no association
  • Bladder cancer 膀胱がん
Prospective cohort 14873 men and 23667 women [3] → no association
  • Cancer incidence がん
Prospective study 38540 people [3] → no association

循環器疾患

It is often believed that (oolong) tea possesses hypotensive effects. After Hertog MG et al. [1], flavonoid intakes have been reported to inversely associated with CVDs. In 2008, Hooper et al. performed a comprehensive review of reliable 133 flavonoid trials [2], and concluded that

  • flavanol-rich cocoa reduces blood pressure by 6 (systolic) and 3 (diastolic) mm Hg,
  • soy protein, which is rich in isoflavones, reduces LDL cholesterol by 0.2 mmol/L,
  • black tea acutely (not chronic) raises blood pressure by 6 (systolic) and 3 (diastolic) mm Hg, and
  • chocolate acutely (not chronic) increases flow-mediated dilation (FMD) by 4%.

烏龍茶は血圧降下に効くと信じられているようです。 Hertog MGらの研究以後、フラボノイドの摂取量と循環器疾患の率は逆相関の関係にあると言われてきました。 しかし2008年、Hooperらが信頼できる133 のフラボノイド研究を再調査し以下の結論を導いています。

  • フラバノールが多いココアは血圧を 6 (収縮期)、 3 (拡張期) mm Hg下げる
  • イソフラボンの多い大豆プロテインはLDLコレステロールを 0.2 mmol/L下げる
  • 紅茶は一時的に血圧を 6 (収縮期) 、 3 (拡張期) mm Hg上げる
  • チョコレートは一時的にFMD(血流依存性血管拡張)を4%上げる

At least, intake of cocoa and soy (not tea!) provide evidence for short-term beneficial effects on CVD. However, it remains unclear whether the effects can be attributed to the specific flavonoid species [3]. A large scale cohort study (34789 men) found no association with flavonoids and CVD [4] [5].

お茶ではなくココアや大豆の摂取がCVDに一過性の良い効果を与えることは示されました。 しかし、具体的にフラボノイドが原因かどうかは明らかではありません。 大規模なコホート研究では (34789 人) フラボノイドと循環器疾患の関係は見出されませんでした。

高コレステロール血症

In many animal studies, usually rats, various tea suppresses cholesterol levels. Catechins are considered to account for the hypocholesterolemic effect.

  • Lower plasma triacylglycerols, cholesterol, and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol in experimental Sprague-Dawley rats [1].
  • Lower serum and liver cholesterols, but not HDL-cholesterol and triglyceride levels in rats. [2]

主にラットを用いた多くの動物実験では、お茶がコレステロール量を下げることが報告されています。この原因はカテキン類と考えられています。

  • 実験用Sprague-Dawleyラットにおいて、血漿中のトリアシルグリセロール、コレステロール、LDLコレステロールを下げるという報告
  • 実験用ラットにおいて、血清中、肝臓内のコレステロール低下(ただしHDL-コレステロール、トリアシルグリセロールは変化なし)という報告

肥満

Recently, resveratrol is found to improve obesity.[1]. Some studies suggest relationship between green tea consumption and reduction in body fat[2][3], but clear evidence on body weight control is missing. Since body weight may change for various reasons, it is hard to conduct an epidemiologic study.

近年レスベラトロールが肥満に効果があるという報告があります。緑茶と体脂肪減少の関係を報告する論文もありますが、明白な関係はわかりません。体重は様々な要因で変化しやすいので疫学的調査も困難です。
