"Come, drink tea, drink it while it's hot, it tastes good." Many people like to drink very hot tea, but if you drink it often, it is very dangerous, because drinking hot tea is very harmful to the digestive tract and oral mucosa, and the scalded parts are prone to cancer after repeated proliferation, which will increase the incidence of esophageal cancer and oral cancer.
Drinking tea over 8 °C causes cancer by 0 times
Iranian researchers have published studies that show that drinking a cup of hot tea every day is likely to increase the risk of esophageal cancer. Moreover, when the water temperature of tea is between 5°C-0°C, the risk of esophageal cancer doubles, and once the water temperature of tea exceeds 0°C, the incidence of esophageal cancer increases by 0 times. If the tea is consumed within 0 minutes after pouring, the risk of esophageal cancer will increase by about 0 times compared with waiting for 0 minutes before drinking it.
Another study has found that when drinking tea, the temperature of tea is between 60°C-0°C, which is more beneficial to health.
Therefore, for the sake of health, after the tea is brewed, wait for a while, wait for the tea temperature to cool to 60°C and then drink it slowly.
These bad habits of drinking tea are also very hurtful
In fact, in addition to drinking tea at a temperature that should not be too high, people also have the following bad habits when drinking tea:
Bad habit of drinking tea: use a paper cup or thermos cup to make tea
There is a layer of wax on the inner wall of the paper cup, which will affect the taste of the tea after the wax is dissolved; The thermos cup sets up a high-temperature and constant temperature environment for the tea, which will make the color of the tea yellow, darker, the taste bitter, the smell of water stuffiness, and may even affect the health value of the tea. Therefore, when going out, it is best to brew it in a teapot first, and then pour it into a thermos cup after the water temperature is lowered.
Bad habit of drinking tea: make tea directly with boiling tap water
The hardness of tap water varies greatly from region to region. The tap water with hard water has a high content of metal ions such as calcium and magnesium, which can complexe with tea polyphenols and other components in tea, which in turn affects the aroma and taste of tea, as well as the health effect of tea. Comparatively, the effect of purified water to make tea will be better.
Bad habit of drinking tea: Drink strong tea
Strong tea contains more caffeine, more theophylline, strong stimulation, easy to cause headaches, insomnia. At the same time, it can also cause rapid heartbeat, which is not good for patients with coronary heart disease with tachycardia, premature contractions and atrial fibrillation. In particular, women should not drink strong tea during menstruation, pregnancy, childbirth, and lactation.
Bad habit of drinking tea: the fresher the tea, the better
Shixin tea refers to new tea that has been fried for less than half a month with fresh leaves. Comparatively speaking, this tea does taste better to drink. However, according to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, freshly processed tea leaves have fire, and this firepower needs to be stored for a period of time before it disappears. Therefore, drinking too much new tea can make a person angry. In addition, the content of tea polyphenols and caffeine in new tea is high, which is easy to irritate the stomach, and if you drink new tea regularly, there is a possibility of gastrointestinal discomfort. People with a bad stomach should drink less green tea that has been stored for less than half a month after processing. In addition, it should be reminded that not all kinds of tea are new and better than old, such as Pu'er tea and other dark teas need to be properly aged and of better quality.
Tea Drinking Bad Habits: Drinking tea that has been brewed multiple times
The first tea soup can contain 3% of the total amount of water extract, the second tea soup can contain 0% of the total amount of water extract, the third tea soup is 0%, and the fourth tea soup is only 0-0%, and then brewing many times will make some harmful components in the tea also leach, because the trace harmful elements in the tea are often brewed at the end.
Bad habit of drinking tea: Drink tea that has been left for a long time
It is better to drink tea freshly, and if the tea is left for a long time, it will not only lose vitamins and other nutrients, but also be prone to spoilage, and it is easy to get sick after drinking. Moreover, the tea will become cold for a long time, and cold tea has the side effects of stagnation and phlegm accumulation on the body, especially for women with cold bodies, it is not suitable to drink cold tea.
Bad habit of drinking tea: chewing tea residue after drinking tea to help maintain health
Some people chew and eat tea residues after drinking tea because tea contains more carotene, crude fiber, and other nutrients. However, for security reasons, this method is not recommended. Because tea residues may also contain trace amounts of heavy metals such as lead and cadmium, as well as water-insoluble pesticides, if you eat tea residues, these harmful substances will be ingested into the body. Tea is used for drinking and eating. The limit requirements for water-insoluble harmful substances are different between the two. For drinking tea, water-insoluble pesticides can be used, and brewing will not affect health, but chewing will have potential risks; For the tea to be eaten, the standards adopted are more stringent.
Bad habit of drinking tea: Drinking too much tea
Although drinking tea can be healthy, it must not be excessive. As a daily health care should be based on weak tea, 20-0 grams a day is enough, some old tea customers in a cup of half a cup is tea, a day often more than 0 grams of tea, such a amount is too large. It is appropriate for ordinary people to drink tea three or four times a day, while people who eat more greasy food and smoke and alcohol can appropriately increase the amount of tea. Pregnant women and children, people with neurasthenia, and people with tachycardia should drink less tea.
