Green Tea Exercise Performance Meta-AnalysisRisk of bias, methodological quality, and certainty of evidence were assessed using RoB 2, PEDro, and GRADE.1Zhu Y (2026)Does chronic polyphenol supplementation modify resistance training-induced strength and muscle morphology adaptations in adults? A systematic review and multilevel meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.
Green Tea Exercise Performance Meta-AnalysisConclusion Current evidence does not establish a reliable additional effect of chronic polyphenol supplementation on resistance training-induced strength, lean-mass, or direct muscle-morphology adaptations.1Zhu Y (2026)Does chronic polyphenol supplementation modify resistance training-induced strength and muscle morphology adaptations in adults? A systematic review and multilevel meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.
Green Tea Exercise Performance Meta-AnalysisHowever, the limited number of independent trials, substantial clinical and methodological indirectness, and low-to-very-low certainty of evidence prevent firm conclusions regarding either benefit or lack of benefit.1Zhu Y (2026)Does chronic polyphenol supplementation modify resistance training-induced strength and muscle morphology adaptations in adults? A systematic review and multilevel meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.
Green Tea Exercise Performance Meta-AnalysisBackground Polyphenol-rich supplements are widely used to support exercise recovery, but whether these recovery-oriented effects translate into long-term resistance-training adaptations remains unclear.1Zhu Y (2026)Does chronic polyphenol supplementation modify resistance training-induced strength and muscle morphology adaptations in adults? A systematic review and multilevel meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.
Green Tea Exercise Performance Meta-AnalysisThis review aimed to synthesize current evidence on nutritional strategies for recovery following high-intensity exercise, ranging from foundational macronutrients to functional foods and bioactive compounds.4Farzana HR (2026)From Macronutrients to Functional Foods: Nutritional Strategies for Recovery Following High-Intensity Exercise.
Green Tea Exercise Performance Meta-AnalysisFunctional foods and bioactive compounds may provide additional benefits as adjunct recovery strategies, although the available evidence varies considerably across exercise models, participant characteristics, supplementation protocols, and recovery outcomes.4Farzana HR (2026)From Macronutrients to Functional Foods: Nutritional Strategies for Recovery Following High-Intensity Exercise.
Green Tea Exercise Performance Meta-AnalysisAmong the functional foods reviewed, tart cherry currently has the strongest supporting evidence for selected recovery outcomes.4Farzana HR (2026)From Macronutrients to Functional Foods: Nutritional Strategies for Recovery Following High-Intensity Exercise.
Green Tea Exercise Performance Meta-AnalysisHigh-intensity exercise improves aerobic and anaerobic performance, neuromuscular function, and sport-specific readiness but may also induce glycogen depletion, exercise-induced muscle damage, muscle soreness, inflammatory responses, oxidative stress, and temporary reductions in subsequent performance.4Farzana HR (2026)From Macronutrients to Functional Foods: Nutritional Strategies for Recovery Following High-Intensity Exercise.
