The marriage counselor explained that the tea contains tannic acid, adding, “As tannic acid levels rise in the body, the peripheral blood vessels begin to narrow.”
He pointed out that the sexual blood vessels are part of the peripheral blood vessels, explaining that their constriction reduces the flow of oxygen-laden blood to the penis, which causes erectile dysfunction.
Kotb concluded his speech by clarifying that the limit allowed to drink tea per day should not exceed 3 cups.
