Although black tea is good, you need to know that everything has two sides, so there are also things to pay attention to when drinking black tea.

Things to note when drinking black tea are as follows:

New tea is not necessarily better when fresh; improper drinking can easily harm the stomach. Since new tea has just been picked and stored for a short time, it contains more unoxidized polyphenols, aldehydes, and alcohols. These substances have little effect on healthy people, but for those with poor gastrointestinal function, especially patients with chronic gastrointestinal inflammation, these substances can irritate the gastrointestinal mucosa, and those with already weak gastrointestinal function are more likely to induce stomach disease. Therefore, new tea should not be drunk in excess, and new tea stored for less than half a month should not be drunk at all.

 


 

In addition, new tea also contains more caffeine, active alkaloids, and a variety of aromatic substances. These substances can also excite the central nervous system. Patients with neurasthenia or cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases should drink it in moderation, and it should not be drunk before bed or on an empty stomach. The correct method is to use it only after storing it for half a month.

Do not take medication with tea; do not drink tea within one hour before or after taking medication.

 


 

Ginseng and American ginseng should not be consumed together with tea.

Avoid drinking strong tea to relieve alcohol; do not drink tea before meals;

Avoid drinking tea immediately after meals; young girls should avoid drinking strong tea.
