Athlete's foot( tinea pedis) is a common skin disease characterized by fungal infection.
Uncontrolled proliferation of yeast-fungi not only produces pungent odor but also facilitates the risks of small vesicles, fissures, scaling, and maceration.
Green tea is not one of the favorite natural ingredient used for treatment of athlete's foot (tinea pedis) in compared to the formula of aromatic oil powder-compound consisting of arrowroot, baking soda, basil oil, tea tree oil, sage oil, and clove oil which has been proven effective in 48 hours injection with enclosed feet in shoes and socks.
In the reaffirmed green tea polyphenols (GTP) in inhibited Trichophyton in vitro, researchers at the Tokyo Medical and Dental University launched an evaluation of the effects of GTP on interdigital tinea pedis in a total of 94 infected patients.
The enrolled patients were assigned either to a lukewarm water foot bath containing GTP(0.1% green tea polyphenol solution: 89.5% catechins) or placebo.
The foot baths were given once daily with feet cleaned with mild soap and rinsed with warm water before submersing into the warm GTP foot bath for 15 minutes up to the ankles.
Patients were also given instruction not to dry off the liquids after 15 minutes to ensure further skin penetration of green tea concentration.
At the end of 12 experiment, researchers found that either GTP or placebo exerted a significant reduction in the size of the affected area, the recurrence rate and the microscopy findings.
In overall assessment, after taking into account of other co and con founders, green tea treatment group demonstrated significant improvements in compared to placebo group.
