Is it okay to drink Tieguanyin during menstruation? Yes, drinking a moderate amount of Tieguanyin during menstruation is generally harmless. However, consuming too much or too strong Tieguanyin can have adverse effects on health: 1. It causes significant blood loss. Tieguanyin accelerates the loss of iron, which is essential for menstruation as it helps in the rapid production of blood to replace that lost. The substances in Tieguanyin have no role in accumulating iron, instead they accelerate its loss, making it unsuitable for consumption during menstruation.
2. It burdens the stomach and intestines, as tannic acid in Tieguanyin can hinder the absorption of iron by the human body, causing a certain burden on the gastrointestinal tract. Moreover, it is not advisable to drink tea immediately after meals or to consume strong tea.
It doesn't benefit blood replenishment and can also harm the female body itself.
3. Causes menstrual pain and headaches. During menstruation, different levels of menstrual reactions will occur, such as dysmenorrhea, breast pain, mental stress, temper tantrums, etc.
In order to avoid these situations, it is best not to drink Tieguanyin, because the caffeine in Tieguanyin will make people more energetic, making a tired body even more tired.
Is it okay for pregnant women to drink Tieuan? Yes, drinking a moderate amount of strong Tieuan is not harmful. However, consuming large amounts of concentrated Tieuan can be harmful and affect the normal development of the fetus.
Although Tieguanyin is rich in minerals and has the effects of detoxifying, aiding digestion, slimming, beautifying the skin, refreshing the mind, alleviating fatigue, and reducing heat. It is suitable for general consumption but not recommended for pregnant women.
Due to the strong taste of Tieguanyin tea, pregnant women should avoid drinking it as it can lead to iron deficiency anemia and affect the nutritional supply for the fetus.
Secondly, the concentration of caffeine in strong tea will increase the heart rate and urination volume of pregnant women, thereby increasing the burden on their hearts and kidneys. This may induce symptoms of pregnancy poisoning, which is not conducive to the health of the mother.
Additionally, consuming excessive amounts of strong black tea such as Tea Oolong during the last trimester of pregnancy can easily lead to insomnia in pregnant women.
Prenatal sleep deprivation often leads to exhausted physiques, weakened uterine contractions and consequently difficult labor.
Can drinking Tieguanyin help with weight loss? The answer is not straightforward. It depends on the individual, as different people have different reasons for being overweight. If you want to successfully slim down, it's important to first identify the cause of your obesity and then take targeted measures to achieve success in losing weight.
However, there is indeed a weight-loss effect associated with Tieguanyin.
So why can Tieguanyin aid in weight loss? The main reason is that Tieguanyin contains tannins as its main component, which can regulate the metabolism of body fat. Moreover, experimental evidence has shown that Tieguanyin can indeed reduce blood cholesterol levels. Coupled with lotus leaf and hawthorn, the weight-loss tea made from them has a noticeable effect.
In addition, Zhang Zhiren, a professor at the Department of Medicine at Taiwan Cheng Kung University, pointed out in the Journal of Obesity that people who regularly drink Tieguanyin will have lower body mass and fat content than those who drink less. Moreover, women who often drink Tieguanyin will have more obvious weight loss effects than men. Professor Zhang explained that this is because compared with black tea and green tea, Tieguanyin can increase the activity of pancreatic lipolytic enzymes, which can reduce our body's absorption of carbohydrates and fatty foods. At the same time, drinking Tieguanyin regularly can also speed up the body's calorie production and speed up the burning of fat, especially for accumulating more fat in the abdomen.
In summary, it can be concluded that Tieguanyin indeed has the effect of slimming down, but it is only applicable to some groups.
If you really want to lose weight and keep it off, dieting alone is not enough. You need to add exercise as well.
Not only can you achieve weight loss successfully, but it can also enhance your immunity and protect yourself from virus attacks, thereby leading a healthy and slimmer life.
Drinking Tie Guanyin: When it comes to consuming Tie Guanyin, more often than not, people prefer to talk about sipping on the tea. There are indeed many considerations one should keep in mind when preparing and enjoying this beverage, including the utensils used for brewing, the water for making the tea, the timing of drinking, and the demographics of those who choose to partake.
Precautions when drinking iron tea: 1. Do not use insulated cups to brew iron tea, many people like to use insulated cups to keep the tea warm for a long time. However, this practice is incorrect.
If you soak Tieguanyin in a thermos cup and soak it in high-temperature and constant temperature water for a long time, a large amount of tea polyphenols, tannins and other substances in the tea will leach out, making the tea color thick and taste bitter.
Therefore, tea sets should choose ceramics with good air permeability, such as using a purple sand teapot to make tea without losing the original flavor of tea.
2. Soak Tieguanyin with mountain spring water for a better taste. Start with water, tea set, and brewing time.
Mountain spring water is better for water. Good water quality can better exert the inner quality of tea. It is best to brew it with boiling water at 100℃.
3. Don't drink Tieguanyin on an empty stomach. It's best not to drink Tieguanyin on an empty stomach in the morning, because the ingredients of Tieguanyin are relatively rich. On an empty stomach, it will dilute gastric acid, inhibit the normal secretion of gastric juice, which is not conducive to digestion, and in serious cases, it will also cause head discomfort, palpitations, upset, stomach discomfort, and other symptoms are also not conducive to the body's absorption of protein, and can also cause diseases such as gastric mucositis.
4. Patients with anemia should not drink Tieguanyin for anemia, because Tieguanyin contains a large amount of tannic acid. Tannic acid can combine with iron in the human body to form an insoluble conjugate, so that the body cannot get enough iron source. In particular, special attention should be paid to that it is even more inappropriate for women during their menstrual period. Drinking tea, especially strong tea such as Tieguanyin, during that period, can easily cause iron-deficiency anemia.
5. Don't drink Tieguanyin after drinking alcohol; it may not refresh but instead harm your health. It is generally believed that consuming tea after drinking alcohol can help you recover from the hangover, but this is actually a misconception. Drinking strong tea is even worse, as the tea leaves can stimulate nerve centers, and drinking strong tea after drinking alcohol can increase the burden on the heart. Furthermore, although tea has excellent diuretic effects, drinking tea after drinking alcohol can cause toxic substances in alcohol to be excreted from the kidneys before they have been fully decomposed, which greatly irritates the kidneys.
