Tea has been known since ancient times to possess health benefits. Tea is being extensively consumed especially in China. In all its forms- black, green and red, tea provides the body essential anti oxidants and has anti ageing components as well. So it improves your overall health both from the inside and the outside.
Improves Digestion
Herbal or black tea has amazing components and the powerful anti oxidants with which it is loaded, and they play a vital role in improving the digestion of our body. Regular consumption of 2-3 cups of tea especially an hour before your meals will prevent bloating and water retention in the body. Also, your food is digested fast and you do not feel the usual sloppiness which is very frequent after lunch or dinner.
Increases Metabolism
Black Tea or Green Tea with a dash of lemon juice in it is often recommended for weight watchers or overweight people, usually right in the morning. Tea is loaded with powerful nutrients that kick metabolism right in the morning with the very first cup. Fitness experts and Yoga trainers often advise people to consume a cup of green or black tea before working out, as it makes you sweat a lot, thereby reducing weight.
