What’s better, tea or coffee?
Both tea and coffee are beneficial, as long as we consume them moderately. It is recommended to drink about one or two cups of tea or coffee a day. Moderate amount of coffee or tea improves blood circulation, energizes the heart muscles, stimulates the brain and relaxes the nervous system.
Tea with its inviting flavors
Green tea in particular improves health because it contains about 80 different elements needed by the body. It strengthens our teeth, cleanses our blood and opens the pores of the skin, is a preventive remedy against stones to the liver, kidneys and bladder. It also removes disease-causing bacteria.
Green tea is good not to be prepared too concentrated, because this way you can irritate the digestive tract. You can make healthy teas by boiling blackcurrant leaves, raspberries, mint, melissa, chamomile, etc. The water we use in the preparation of tea must be of good quality, because it also influences the taste.
Black tea, has several varieties and fewer beneficial effects for the body because it contains substances that can dehydrate the digestive tract. To minimize the negative effects of these substances, we can add a bay leaf to the boil. It will improve the flavor of the tea and remove harmful substances.
It is good to consume the tea immediately after preparing it (of course not hot), because it has the most strengthening and invigorating effects. After a few hours, boiled tea can produce substances harmful to our health.
