Palabras clave:
chá verde, doença crônica, epidemiologia, hábitos alimentaresResumen
Investigar os prováveis benefícios dos hábitos culturais orientais, incluindo o consumo de Camellia sinensis (chá verde) na prevenção de doenças crônicas. Trinta e quatro indivíduos entre 25 e 84 anos, de ambos os sexos, pertencentes à comunidade nipônica do Rio de Janeiro, RJ, foram submetidos a anamnese alimentar e questionário socio-econômico-cultural. Dos indivíduos, 76% consumiam chá verde, sendo que 35% o ingeriam diariamente e 27% esporadicamente. Verificou-se que o consumo regular de álcool era predominante nos não usuários de chá verde, quando comparados com os apreciadores da bebida (50% e 35%, respectivamente, faziam uso de álcool). Não foi observado sedentarismo na amostra. Dos apreciadores do chá, 81% não apresentavam doenças crônicas. Já entre os consumidores, observamos um menor percentual de doenças crônicas, especialmente, de hipertensão, porém sem significância estatística.
