What are Tea Polyphenols?

Tea polyphenols are natural compounds found in tea leaves, particularly in green tea. They are a type of flavonoid, which is a class of plant-derived compounds known for their antioxidant properties. The main types of tea polyphenols found in tea leaves are epicatechin (EC), epicatechin gallate (ECG), epigallocatechin (EGC), and epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG). Tea polyphenols exhibit antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, and anti-diabetic properties. They work by neutralizing free radicals in the body, which can damage cells and contribute to chronic diseases. Moreover, they also offer numerous health benefits such as improved blood vessel function, blood pressure regulation, and reduced risks of cardiovascular disorders (CVDs), cancer, and stroke. On account of these properties, they are broadly used as a fundamental ingredient in dietary supplements, organic colors, cosmetics, and food and beverage (F&B) products.

COVID-19 Impact:

The Covid-19 outbreak has had a significant negative impact on the tea polyphenols market due to the disruption of global supply chains. The pandemic has caused a scarcity of raw materials used in the production of tea polyphenols, resulting in a reduced supply and higher prices. Moreover, the limited road movement and restrictions on international trade have impacted deliveries of raw materials as well as final products to the end-consumers, which hampered the market growth. Concurrent with this, the outbreak has caused a decrease in demand as people are forced to stay at home. This has resulted in a decline in sales, leading to a subsequent drop in profits for tea polyphenol manufacturers. In addition to this, during the lockdown, many companies were forced to reduce their marketing budgets or cancel campaigns altogether due to the uncertain economic environment, which resulted in a decrease in brand awareness and overall product sales. This has a detrimental impact on industry expansion.

Tea Polyphenols Market Trends:

The increasing prevalence of chronic diseases, such as obesity, cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), and diabetes, due to sedentary lifestyles and unhealthy eating habits of consumers around the globe. However, with the escalating awareness of health and wellness, people are shifting towards more nutritious diets and adopting an active lifestyle, which is driving the demand for healthier alternatives to traditional beverages, such as tea, and aiding in the growth of the tea polyphenols market. In addition to this, the widespread product adoption as they are a rich source of epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) and dietary fibers that exhibit anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and antineoplastic properties, which aid in improving metabolism and weight management, which is creating a positive outlook for market growth. Moreover, the increasing product utilization in the manufacturing of ready-to-drink (RTD) teas, dietary supplements, nutraceuticals, and functional beverages, is presenting remunerative growth opportunities for the market. Concurrent with this, the increasing use of tea polyphenols in producing various personal care and cosmetic products to combat signs of aging, skin darkness, acne, dandruff, and hair loss, is acting as a significant growth-inducing factor. Furthermore, rapid urbanization, the rising geriatric population, inflating disposable income of individuals, the surging adoption of preventative healthcare, and ongoing technological advancements in extraction technologies are positively impacting the market growth.
