Tea is a highly popular beverage, primarily due to its unique flavor and aroma as well as its perceived health benefits. The impact of tea on the gut microbiome could be an important means by which tea exerts its health benefits since the link between the gut microbiome and health is strong. This review provided a discussion of the bioactive compounds in tea and the human gut microbiome and how the gut microbiome interacts with tea polyphenols. Importantly, studies were compiled on the impact of differently processed tea, which contains different polyphenol profiles, on the gut microbiota from in vivo animal feeding trials, in vitro human fecal fermentation experiments, and in vivo human feeding trials from 2004-2024. The results were discussed in terms of different tea types and how their impacts are related to or different from each other in these three study groups.
茶是一种非常受欢迎的饮料，主要是因为它独特的风味和香气以及被认为对健康有益。茶对肠道微生物组的影响可能是其发挥健康益处的重要途径，因为肠道微生物组与健康之间的联系非常紧密。本综述讨论了茶和人类肠道微生物组中的生物活性化合物，以及肠道微生物组如何与茶多酚相互作用。重要的是，从 2004 年至 2024 年，我们从体内动物喂养试验、体外人类粪便发酵实验和体内人类喂养试验中汇编了关于不同加工茶（含有不同的多酚谱）对肠道微生物群的影响的研究。根据不同的茶类，讨论了它们在这三组研究中的影响，以及它们之间的关系或差异。
