Abstrakt: Chronic inflammation is implicated in diseases as diverse as cancer, heart attack, senility, and arthritis. Excess production of certain 'cytokines' is involved in inflammation's earliest stages. A family of black tea compounds called theaflavins favorably regulates genes involved in the production of proinflammatory cytokines. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
