Abstract

Tea is not only a popular drink but also a drink with refreshing and functional properties. Thus, the green and black tea leaves were collected and used for preparing green and orthodox black tea to study antioxidant activity, phytochemicals profile such as Antioxidant activities, Anti-diabetic studies, and Anti-inflammatory study along with Anti-microbial activity. The contemporary scientific community has presently recognized flavonoids to be a unique class of therapeutic molecules due to their diverse therapeutic properties. Of these, rutin, also known as vitamin P or rutoside, has been explored for a number of pharmacological effects. Tea leaves, apples, and many more possess rutin as one of the active constituents. Today, rutin has been observed for its nutraceutical effect. The present study highlights the anti-diabetic, anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial and antioxidant effects of rutin. The rutin present in the green tea leaves and black tea leaves are herein mainly focussed and compared.
