EGCG improve meat quality, restore lipid metabolism disorder and regulate intestinal flora in high-fat fed broilers by Lujia Gao, Chen Liu, Jiaqi Wu, Ying Cui, Man Zhang, Chongpeng Bi, Anshan Shan, Xiujing Dou

“…The results showed that EGCG increased lightness (L*) 24 h (P < 0.05), and decreased drip loss (P < 0.05) of chicken meat; Enhanced the presence of non-essential and flavor amino acids in muscle tissue and greatly enhanced the antioxidant capacity of broilers, leading to a noteworthy upregulation of antioxidant genes at the genetic level (P < 0.05); Reduced in blood lipids, blood glucose, liver and abdominal fat accumulation in high-fat diet-induced obese chickens (P < 0.05), markedly improved serum and liver biochemical parameters, and histological analysis results also demonstrated that EGCG markedly decreased hepatic lipid accumulation caused by HFD feeding. …”
