Synopsis

Source of validity: Traditional
Rating (out of 5): 1

Green tea (Camellia sinensis) has a long history of use in traditional medicine systems, particularly in Asia, where it is valued for its general health-promoting properties. While green tea is rich in polyphenols such as catechins (notably epigallocatechin gallate, EGCG), which have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, there is minimal scientific research specifically linking green tea consumption to direct support or enhancement of the lymphatic system. Traditional herbal medicine sometimes associates green tea with "cleansing" or "detoxifying" functions, which may be interpreted as supporting lymphatic flow or helping in the removal of metabolic waste. However, these uses are largely anecdotal and not strongly rooted in documented, system-specific traditional practices. In modern scientific literature, while green tea has been studied for cardiovascular, metabolic, and immune health, explicit studies on its effects on lymphatic function, lymph flow, or lymphatic disorders are lacking. Therefore, its use for supporting the lymphatic system is primarily based on traditional assumptions about its general health benefits rather than targeted, evidence-based effects on the lymphatic system itself.
