Bed Tea

Bed tea;

In Indian households, the day begins with a piping hot cup of coffee or tea, along with the newspaper. While we all consider it as a healthy practice, there are health experts, who believe that drinking tea on an empty stomach (often termed as ‘bed tea’) is not good for the body. Let’s get started and explore what makes this antioxidant-rich drink an unhealthy one first thing in the morning.

Metabolic imbalance.

According to health experts, drinking tea on an empty stomach may disrupt the mechanism of the metabolic system. When you drink tea, the acidic and alkaline substances mix together that further interfere with the normal metabolic activity, leading to uneasiness, stomach cramps, and restlessness.

Dehydrates our body;

We are always asked to drink a lot of water in the morning because the body is dehydrated due to long eight hours of sleep. Drinking tea on an empty stomach further removes the water from the body. According to experts, tea is diuretic in nature and consuming it early morning may lead to dehydration, muscle cramps, and body ache.

Oral cavity;

The sugar content in the tea increases the acid levels in the mouth that further erase the enamel layer of the teeth, turning them off-white or yellowish in colour.

Alternative drink;

According to health experts, the ideal drinks to start your day could be buttermilk, cumin water, fenugreek water or lemon water with honey. It is believed that alkaline drinks stimulate the blood flow in the body and give you instant energy to start the day on health note.

Best time for Tea;
The ideal time to have tea is mid-morning after having your breakfast. “This is the time when the metabolic activity starts functioning properly and a cup of tea may get digested easily.”
