Beer is the most widely consumed alcoholic drink in the world. Tea is the most widely consumed drink in the world, second only to water. While beer does have some health benefits some beer is a natural source of prebiotics, there are certain teas that will provide several digestive health benefits.
Tea was first used in Thailand, Burma, Assam, and China and eventually was introduced to Europeans during their East Asia trading that took place in the seventeenth century. In fact, the first book written all about the cultivation, preparation, and consumption of tea was by a Chinaman named Lu Yum in the year 780.
There is a bit of a tea revolution happening in the United States now and leading this charge is green tea because of its associated health benefits. This trend will grow and there are already other beverage products advertising great calorie-burning benefits, which incidentally are deriving the key ingredients from green tea.
Green tea benefits
Although there are many studies still being done on green tea, some have been substantiated by western scions, even thought in Asia they have used it for medicinal purposes for thousands of years. Daily green tea consumption has already shown to protect against heart attacks and strokes, and obesity. This is great news considering how much Trans fats we still get from many processed foods.
From acne to weight loss
Green tea helps to stimulate cleansing of your cells and can rejuvenate skin cells that are dying. There are products available claiming it can heal acne.
As a weight loss product it can speed up your metabolism and acts as an appetite suppressant as well. These are legitimate weight loss benefits since increasing metabolic rate and reducing hunger cravings are two of the most common thugs we see included in many weight loss products on the market, both in the pharmaceutical drug and natural supplement variety.
Green tea can also help detox your body of the many dangerous toxins, chemicals, and other pollutants that enter the body through food and the air.
It can help digestion and has been used for years to relief certain types of minor gastrointestinal disorders. Its antioxidants are believed to help fight cancer and help decrease inflammation inside the body, which is a symptom of obesity.
Is it only green tea?
If you want to widen your choices for digestive health, tea tries yerba mate tea as well. This is similar in some ways as far as its health benefits. Yerba mate also stimulates cells, but of the fat variety. It is also an excellent appetite suppressant and can increase your natural energy without the jitters and nervousness some people get with coffee.
