Interaction of tea components on adrenal hypertrophy in stressed mice. Mice consumed powder diet containing theanine, caffeine, EGCG, and Arg for seven days (single rearing for six days and confrontational rearing for one day). Control mice were fed a powder diet, CE-2. The concentration of theanine was 0.32 mg/kg. Mice ingested feed that contained each component as molar ratios of matcha sample no. 6, i.e., the molar ratio of theanine:caffeine:EGCG:Arg was 1:2:1:0.7. Each bar shows the mean ± SEM (n = 4; * p < 0.05).
