Tieguanyin tea leaves contain high levels of amino acids, minerals, tea polyphenols, and alkaloids. They also contain various nutritional and medicinal components, offering some practical uses in daily life.

Practical uses of Tieguanyin tea in daily life:

1. For burns or scalds

When accidentally burned or scalded, take an appropriate amount of Tieguanyin tea leaves and boil them with a small amount of water (less water than tea leaves to make a concentrated decoction). After cooling, soak the affected area in the tea liquid or apply it to the wound.

2. For motion sickness and hangover relief

Before traveling by car or boat, drink a small cup of warm Tieguanyin tea mixed with 2–3 ml of soy sauce. This method can also help relieve hangovers.

3. For gum bleeding

If you notice blood on your toothbrush while brushing in the morning, you can use Tieguanyin tea to brush your teeth. Rinse with clean water afterward. Regularly drinking Tieguanyin tea can also help prevent gum bleeding.

4. For children's tooth decay

Tieguanyin tea contains fluoride, which can help prevent tooth demineralization and loss of phosphorus and calcium in an acidic oral environment. Therefore, children can regularly rinse their mouths with Tieguanyin tea.

5. For dermatitis

In hot weather, infants may develop inflammation or redness in skin folds. In such cases, boil Tieguanyin tea leaves in water and use the lukewarm decoction to wash the affected areas gently.
