Green tea is the healthiest drink, and some experts consider it even better than water. However, certain myths and prejudices have formed around green tea. Here’s what not to believe from now on!
1. You can drink as much green tea as you want
Fake! Anything that is too much is harmful to the health of the body. If you drink a lot of green tea, the amount of caffeine it contains can increase blood pressure, can lead to agitation and insomnia. Nutritionists recommend between 3 and 6 cups of tea a day. No more!
2. Green tea contains a lot of caffeine
It is true that green tea contains caffeine but in small quantities, three times less than coffee. This drink is a rich source of “good” caffeine, which in turn contains antioxidants. Antioxidants prevent cancer, diabetes and Parkinson’s disease. Caffeine helps eliminate stress and anxiety.
3. Green tea dehydrates the body
Following a study conducted in 2006, specialists found that it is better for the body to consume green tea than water. However, if you drink it in large quantities, the caffeine found in tea can lead to dehydration.
