Theabrownine, An Important Substance in Pu 'er Ripe Tea

2023-08-12 15:42:26

Theabrownine in Pu 'er ripe tea is the terminator of enzymatic oxidative polymerization of tea polyphenols. It is not a single substance, but a very stable and complex polymer. Its formation process is: tea polyphenol & GT; Theaflavins & gt; Tea red pigment & gt; Tea brown pigment. In the process of oxidation of Pu 'er tea, tea polyphenols will disappear and Theabrownine will increase greatly. The oxidation polymerization of 80% theaflavins and theafronins forms theafronins. Theabrownine is a water-soluble pigment with no side effects and is the key component of pu 'er tea soup with reddish brown color. At the same time, Theabrownine has good preventive and health care effect on human health.

The fully fermented pu-erh tea will lose its stimulating effect in the polymerization of tea polyphenols and form the macromolecule theofrin, which forms a protective layer on the surface of gastric mucosa and has the function of "warming the stomach".

Theofrin can bind saturated fatty acids and cholesterol, increase the solubility of oil in water, inhibit oil absorption, and enhance excretion. This is also the reason for pu 'er tea to "scrape oil" and reduce weight. Theafluorin can also combine with many bacteria to metabolize toxins, regulate intestinal microbes, and have a significant "detoxification" function. Therefore, once we accidentally eat harmful bacteria caused intestinal discomfort, can drink cooked pu strong tea "detoxification".

Theofurin has the function of scavenging some harmful free radicals in human body, thus achieving the effect of anti-oxidation. Theovulin also plays a significant role in reducing blood lipids, blood glucose and blood viscosity, preventing cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and diabetes.
