Have some of the Beauties ever seen an appeal or received a chain message regarding the prohibition of drinking iced tea after eating meatballs?
Even though drinking iced tea is very tasty and refreshing, especially after eating spicy and gravy food. Unfortunately, now there is a ban on drinking iced tea after eating meatballs on various social media and chain messages. This is because it is considered harmful to the health of the body. Is it true?
According to Dr. Putri Sakti, MGz, SpGK, AIFO-K, CHHF who is a clinical nutrition specialist, as quoted detikHealth, said actually drinking occasionally is okay but limited. This can inhibit the absorption of nutrients if after eating meatballs then drink iced tea.
How can it be like that? Here’s the explanation below.

So, tannin content which is in the tea is one of the antinutrients. Tannins are related to proteins so that they can form insoluble complex compounds. The complex compound later can reduce proteins and enzymes in the digestive tract.
dr Putri also added that tannins can be found in green tea and black tea. Therefore, it is advisable to consume lots of water, orange juice, and also milk as a substitute for nutrients for the body’s needs.
Launching from the page Healthline, tannins have larger molecules compared to polyphenols. Tannins can also combine with other molecules such as proteins and minerals. Black tea is considered to have the highest tannin content, while green tea has the lowest tannin level.
Then, it was also stated that tannins can be found naturally in nuts, spices, leaves, tree bark, seeds, and fruits. Its content also gives its own taste and color to the types of plant foods.
In addition, generally the content of tannins is in coffee, tea, chocolate, and wine. The bitter and astringent taste in food and drink comes from tannins.
