Study Summary

This study is focused on assessing gastrointestinal-level improvements by which green tea limits metabolic endotoxemia. It is completed in two phases. Phase I consists of a pharmacokinetic study to examine the bioavailability of green tea catechins among lean and obese persons who consumed a single dose of a green tea extract (GTE)-containing confection. These persons will then complete phase 2, which consists of a parallel design randomized controlled in which lean and obese persons will consume placebo or GTE confections. It is expected that catechin-rich green tea will improve gut barrier function to prevent endotoxin translocation and associated low-grade inflammation. Outcomes will therefore support dietary recommendations for green tea to alleviate obesity-related inflammatory responses. Specifically, the study is expected to demonstrate that a green tea confection snack food can attenuate metabolic endotoxemia in association with restoring gastrointestinal health.
