Green tea contains the richest nutrients among all tea types, including vitamins, chlorophyll, tea polyphenols, and amino acids. Commonly consumed varieties like Huangshan Maofeng, West Lake Longjing, Xinyang Maojian, and Biluochun all fall under the category of green tea.
Green tea is the most health-preserving among China's six major tea types. Urban office workers can not only refresh their minds and enhance thinking by drinking green tea but also effectively counteract the effects of radiation from computers, mobile phones, televisions, and other electronic devices. Additionally, green tea helps supplement vitamins, prevent scurvy, aid in weight loss, and beautify the skin.
Of course, green tea is cooling in nature and may irritate the stomach. Those with weaker digestive systems should drink it in moderation or pair it with snacks during consumption, using less tea leaves and more water to make the flavor lighter and reduce irritation.
Office workers should exercise more for wellness.
Sitting for long periods
This is the number one enemy of office workers' health. Some people stick to their chairs as soon as they enter the office, even rolling over to talk to colleagues instead of standing up. Prolonged sitting not only leads to cervical problems but also invites chronic diseases like hypertension and diabetes.
Countermeasure: Every hour, bend over, twist your legs, stretch your arms, turn your neck, and rub your face. If you don't want to draw attention, go to the restroom or wash your face to force yourself to walk around. You can also do discreet tasks, like organizing messy items or dusting desks and chairs.
Overusing your eyes
Excessive staring damages blood vitality. Prolonged eye use can cause nearsightedness, blurred vision, dryness, and other issues.
Countermeasure: The key is to promote blood circulation. Look into the distance for 5 minutes every hour, and ideally, do eye exercises. You can also rub your palms warm and place them over your eyes, repeating this 5-10 times.
Air conditioning sickness
Air-conditioned rooms are breeding grounds for illnesses. Overheating in winter and overcooling in summer lead to colds, stomach discomfort, and other symptoms. Combined with a lack of negative oxygen ions, this harms the brain and lungs, reducing work efficiency.
Countermeasure: Find a spot away from direct airflow, such as a hallway or balcony, open a window, breathe fresh air, and rub your hands and feet while you're at it.
