Proper Method Of Consuming Black Tea

Proper Method Of Consuming Black Tea

 

Black tea is rich in antioxidants that may provide benefits, including improved heart and gut health and lowered “bad” LDL cholesterol, blood pressure, and blood sugar levels. Aside from water, black tea is one of the most consumed trusted Source beverages in the world.

It comes from the Camellia sinensis plant and is often blended with other plants for different flavors, such as Earl Gray or chai. It’s more flavorful and contains more caffeine than other teas, but less caffeine than coffee. Black tea also offers a variety of health benefits because it contains antioxidants and compounds that may help reduce inflammation in the body.

MAKING YOUR BLACK TEA

  1. Boil the water. Black tea needs hotter water, so let it reach a rolling boil. You’ll only need little bubbles for other types, like green tea.
  2. Add tea. Pour your water onto the tea to help ‘agitate’ the leaves. This allows the infusion.
  3. Brew. Leave the tea to infuse and let nature weave her little magic spell!
  4. Remove the tea. Lift loose tea leaves out in their infuser or pour the tea over a strainer. 
  5. If using a teabag, lift it out with a teaspoon.  
  6. Serve. Take a moment to enjoy your tea. You’re now ready for anything!

Black Tea Benefits

Many people drink black tea just because they like it. People also may use it for:

  • Alertness and energy
  • Antioxidants, including polyphenols and catechins
  • Possible anti-cancer effects
  • Heart health
  • Improved metabolism
  • Gut health

More research is needed, but there’s some evidence drinking black tea regularly may lower your risk for these conditions:

  • Diabetes
  • High cholesterol
  • Kidney stones
  • Parkinson’s disease
  • Osteoporosis
  • Cavities (Dental caries)

Black Tea Risks

Drinking black tea in moderate amounts is generally safe for most people. There’s no known right amount to drink. Supplement ingredients and quality may vary widely. This makes it hard to set a standard dose.

Drinking large amounts of black tea- more than four or five cups daily- may cause health problems. That’s primarily because of caffeine-related side effects.

Side effects of black tea (most often in high amounts) may include:

  • Anxiety and difficulty sleeping
  • Faster breathing
  • Headache
  • Increased urination
  • Irregular heartbeat
  • Nausea and vomiting
  • Nervousness and restlessness
  • Ringing in the ears
  • Tremors
  • High blood pressure
  • Anemia

Combining black tea with other types of caffeine or a product called ephedra can be very dangerous. Some of the problems it can cause include:

  • Jitteriness
  • Increased blood pressure
  • Heart rate changes
  • Seizures
  • Passing out
