背景资料：虽然绿色茶或其成分可能会减少心理压力，绿色茶消费和心理困扰之间的关系还没有调查在一个大规模的study.Objective：我们的目的是澄清是否绿色茶消费与较低的心理困扰。设计：我们分析了横截面数据为42,093日本人年龄≥ 40岁的一般人群。通过问卷调查收集日常绿色茶消费、Kessler 6项心理困扰量表评估的心理困扰和其他生活方式因素的信息。我们使用多因素logistic回归分析，调整了年龄、性别、疾病史、体重指数、吸烟、饮酒、步行时间、饮食因素、社会支持和参与社群活动的情况，以调查饮用绿色茶与心理困扰之间的关系。我们将2774名（6.6%）受访者归类为心理困扰（Kessler 6项心理困扰量表>= 13/24）。在一个调整了年龄和性别的模型中，绿色茶消费量和心理困扰之间存在负相关。虽然当调整可能的混杂因素时，这种关系在很大程度上减弱，但仍然存在统计学显著的负相关。每天饮用绿色茶>= 5杯的受访者与每天饮用绿茶的受访者相比，
Background: Although green tea or its constituents might reduce psychological stress, the relation between green tea consumption and psychological distress has not been investigated in a large-scale study.Objective: Our aim was to clarify whether green tea consumption is associated with lower psychological distress.Design: We analyzed cross-sectional data for 42,093 Japanese individuals aged >= 40 y from the general population. Information on daily green tea consumption, psychological distress as assessed by the Kessler 6-item psychological distress scale, and other lifestyle factors was collected by using a questionnaire. We used multiple logistic regression analyses adjusted for age, sex, history of disease, body mass index, cigarette smoking, alcohol consumption, time spent walking, dietary factors, social support, and participation in community activities to investigate the relation between green tea consumption and psychological distress.Results: We classified 2774 (6.6%) of the respondents as having psychological distress ( Kessler 6-item psychological distress scale >= 13/24). There was an inverse association between green tea consumption and psychological distress in a model adjusted for age and sex. Although the relation was largely attenuated when possible confounding factors were adjusted for, a statistically significant inverse association remained. The odds ratio ( with 95% CI) of developing psychological distress among respondents who consumed >= 5 cups of green tea/d was 0.80 (0.70, 0.91) compared with those who consumed
