The association of these types of tea with fewer disorders of gut microbes and bile acids may be attributed to "the rich content of tea polyphenols, flavonoids, alkaloids and various antioxidant compounds, which are reported to modulate the gut microbiota composition and bile acid metabolism and improve the circadian rhythm systems of the brain and gut", the paper said.
