10 kinds of tea: 5 of them can be drunk, and 5 - not

Nowadays almost any drink that is made with the help of herbs and water is considered tea. If you believe everything you are told, you will be sure that tea is a magic elixir that gives health and vitality to all who drink it. Yes, there are drinks that deserve an excellent reputation, but there are some that are better not to use, even if their advertising is beyond praise. To clarify the situation, let's name some teas that you can drink, and those that are best not to try.

Black tea

You must necessarily drink black tea. It's not just tasty, no matter what kind of variety you choose, but it's also very useful in terms of excellent properties - from weight loss to fighting diseases such as cancer, diabetes and many others. However, a lot depends, of course, on how many cups a day you brew. The problem of black tea is that it contains fluoride, which does not hurt your health, even if you drink a dozen cups a day.

However, if you drink as much tea as a 47-year-old woman drank, this can lead to unpredictable consequences. She drank almost 5 liters of tea a day for almost two decades, brewing 100 or 150 tea bags each time. It is assumed that she consumed more than 20 mg of fluoride per day, and after 17 years her bones looked like glass. She was in the hospital, because she complained of severe pain in the joints, she did not have all the teeth. Nevertheless, in the rest she was healthy.

Green tea

This drink has a lot of fans. There are so many of them that green tea is called the most useful on the planet. It improves brain function, promotes weight loss, prevents the appearance of cancer and cardiovascular pathologies. What else gives green tea? Longevity!

In Japan, studies have been carried out that have proved that regular consumption of this drink gives you many years of life in 76% of cases.

Ginger tea

Ginger has long been used in folk medicine to treat nausea and other problems with the digestive tract, and it is also gradually added to tea. This is especially useful for pregnant women who experience morning sickness, ginger is also excellent in coping with pain during menstruation.

People who train intensively can also benefit from a cup of ginger tea. Studies have shown that this will reduce muscle pain, and also remove inflammation. Unlike some "teas", it is very pleasant to the taste.

White tea

This drink has a pleasant mild taste with natural sweetness, which is liked by those people who do not accept the bitterness of green, although they want to consume healthy drinks.

Thanks to the special methods of harvesting, the leaves retain the maximum of useful properties, irreplaceable in the fight against diabetes, cancer, bacterial infections. So you can safely drink a few cups a day.

Hibiscus tea

In many countries, this tea is considered a ritual, after which you feel quite relaxed. However, if you experience stress, then a cup of tea after dinner will be just the way for your health.

A recent study showed that with regular use of carcade tea in patients who suffer from hypertension and stress, blood pressure is significantly lowered. The study did not consider the use of tea with sweets.

Detox-teas

You should not drink this tea. In addition to the fact that the entire "detox" industry is one big scam, in tea there is an ingredient that you should use only under certain circumstances.

The leaves of Senna are known to irritate the intestinal mucosa, have a laxative effect. This is normal if you suffer from constipation or the surgeon must perform an operation on the digestive tract, and for this you need to clean the stomach. Nevertheless, if you use this tea regularly, the consequences can be deplorable.

Tea from the comfrey

For those who are prone to injury, a cup of tea from the comfrey is just what you need. The grass helps to heal wounds, contusions, fractures of bones. It will also help those who have digestive problems.

But the comfrey contains pyrrolizidine alkaloids, and if consumed in a significant amount, it can lead to serious damage to the liver. Sale of comfrey is prohibited in many countries. Bags of dry leaves are still available on the Internet, however, and they should be used only to create creams and ointments.

Many herbal teas

In addition to ginger, carcade and mint, which are useful for our health, try to stay away from other herbal teas. Any positive results after drinking such a cup of tea is at best a placebo effect.

Kava-kava

This ceremonial tea has a lot of contraindications and many features of use. A small overdose can lead to irreversible effects. It has a calming effect, and its effect is so strong that it can lead a person into a stupor, literally to be braked.

He was banned from selling and consuming in Australia and Poland, since he is still capable of causing liver disease. Even if you ever get to try this tea, never mix it with alcohol or medications.

Cheap tea

Although tea is a very useful drink, but still some of its types will not bring anything but harm. For example, in 2013 scientists studied 30 kinds of tea, 70% of which turned out to be very dangerous, since they contained a lot of lead. Aluminum was found in another 20%.

Experts recommend avoiding those varieties that are imported from China, Sri Lanka, India, as in these places very polluted soil. Yes, the price attracts people, but the quality can be just awful.
