Summary: The main aim of this study was to improve the bioavailability of green tea catechins by using a niosomal system. Catechins-loaded niosomes with a narrow size distribution and good stability were successfully prepared. The niosomes showed sustained release of catechins and retained their antioxidant activity. Fortification of milk with catechins loaded niosomes did not significantly affect the sensory and physicochemical properties of milk, but exhibited higher antioxidant activity.

Summary: This paper developed a new skincare application scenario for dark tea and investigated the effects of dark tea polysaccharide (DTP) on stress-induced skin problems. The results showed that DTP reduced cortisol conversion and suppressed the elevation of lipid levels in sebocytes. In addition, the composition and structure of DTP were verified. In summary, DTP has a unique and significant stress-relieving effect, which provides new ideas for the development of new ingredients in the skincare industry.

Summary: Green tea, rich in antioxidant catechins, can benefit human health, but its stability and bioavailability are affected by environmental and gastrointestinal conditions. Nanocarriers can protect catechins and be used for designing efficient delivery systems. Further research is needed to understand the mechanisms and safety of nanodelivery of catechins.

Summary: Epidemiological studies have shown that green tea intake reduces the risk of dementia. EGCG, the most important component of green tea, has been found to be more effective than EGC in promoting neuronal differentiation. Meanwhile, the stress-reducing effects of theanine and arginine in green tea help suppress brain aging.
