Drink cold tea to relieve heat, and have more "one step" to make tea ginger more! Nutritionists suggest that this kind of tea can best reduce fat

In recent years, "cold brewing tea" has become the most healthy tea drink in the hot summer. Nutritionist Liu Yili said that it is best to drink cold tea in summer, which can both cool down and nourish! Drinking homemade cold-brewed tea is not only simple and cost-effective, but also retains more antioxidant ingredients such as edibles, tea polyphenols, etc., which helps prevent cardiovascular diseases and has the effects of lowering blood lipids, lowering blood pressure, and reducing fat.

What is cold brew tea? What is the difference between cold brew tea and common hot tea?

Cold tea brewing is the tea drink that is used after soaking the tea leaves in cold water. The tea brewing action is quite simple, and it is very cost-effective to make tea with tea leaves. Liu Yili pointed out that all tea leaves contain ingredients such as tea tang, tea polyphenols, caffeine, etc., but should drinking hot or cold brewed tea be more healthy? In fact, each has its own advantages and disadvantages.

Cold-brewed tea is suitable for summer and sports drinks. Different cold-brewed tea production methods have different nutritional values

Liu Yili suggests that it is best to make cold-brewed tea first, and then put it in the refrigerator for a night to refrigerate it. This will retain more antioxidant ingredients such as tea ingredient and tea polyphenols, and the caffeine content is also lower, which helps prevent cardiovascular diseases.

If you soak the tea leaves directly, soak the tea leaves in cold water and then refrigerate the cold brew tea. Because there is no heating process, the tea ginger will be slightly less, and there are more tea polyphenols.

From nutritional ingredient, Liu Yili said that regardless of red tea, green tea or Ulong tea, because tea leaves have many ingredients, drinking cold brewed tea or hot tea can prevent cardiovascular diseases and have functions such as lowering blood lipids, lowering calcification, lowering blood pressure, lowering blood sugar, and reducing weight. If you are sensitive to caffeine, it is recommended to drink tea with lower caffeine, but to refresh your mind, you should drink hot tea with more caffeine content.

What are the wonderful uses of cold brew tea in summer? What is the daily intake of cold brewed tea?

The health care function of tea leaves mainly comes from eda, which has strong antioxidant power. Liu Yili pointed out that the unfermented green tea has the most eda content, which helps to reduce fat and control fat. Therefore, if the sluggish period occurs during the effluent reduction period, you can drink more green tea.

In the hot summer, if you are running in the gym or outdoors, you will sweat a lot. Liu Yili believes that you can drink cold tea without hot content at this time, and replenish it during or after the exercise, which can help fat lift faster, so don’t drink sugary drinks anymore.

The caffeine content of tea is less than that of coffee. According to the caffeine content, Liu Yili said that most people should drink no more than 2 to 3 cups of American black coffee every day (240㏄ per cup), so they should not drink more than 6 cups of tea to control the caffeine consumption below 300 mg.

What are the restrictions on using cold tea to drink? Drinking tea without filling water still has the risk of stones!

People with poor stomachs should not drink tea on an empty stomach. Liu Yili pointed out that green tea is especially unfermented tea. The single acid ejaculation is relatively high, which will damage the gastric mucosa and make the stomach more uncomfortable. You can drink fermented red tea or semi-fermented Ulong tea on an empty stomach. If you are suffering from stomach pain, stomach aches or gastroesophageal reflux, it is even more unsuitable to drink tea at this time.

She specifically reminds that people with iron deficiency should not drink tea immediately after eating. The main reason is that the single acid in the tea will block the absorption of iron in the food. It is recommended to drink tea one to two hours after eating. Patients with oxalic acid stone should not drink cold-brewed tea as water, because tea leaves have high oxalic acid content, drinking too much cold-brewed tea may cause risks of oxalic acid stone; brain patients sometimes have water restrictions, including tea water, so it is not recommended to drink oxalic acid stone.

How to drink cold tea in a day? Liu Yili suggested that one-third comes from cold brewed tea, one-third comes from white water, and one-third comes from tangerine water (i.e. water that drinks tangerine and food ingredients). For example, if you should drink 2,400㏄ of water a day, you should take 800㏄ of water respectively. But don't drink cold brewed tea in water and forget to drink water, which is so easy to produce stones.

■3-step simple cold tea brewing method

Step 1: Inject regular temperature water into a 600㏄ special bottle.

Step 2: Put 6 to 8 grams of tea leaves into the filter tea bag, put them directly into the special bottle, and then tie the zipper.

Step 3: Place it at room temperature for about 4 hours to release enough nutrients on the tea leaf. Or put it in the refrigerator and refrigerate for about 8 hours before it is finished.
