Taking with meals
Tea consumption with meals can hinder iron absorption, potentially leading to low iron levels or anemia, emphasizing the need for a balanced iron-rich diet.
Drinking late in the evening
Theophyllines in tea, as stimulants, can cause sleep disturbances due to their hyperactivity, potentially hindering a good night's sleep.
Multiple cups daily
Consuming excessive tea can cause acidity, sleep disturbances, low iron levels, gut health issues, increased caffeine, cortisol levels, tachyarrhythmias, and blood pressure fluctuations.
Using plastic sieve/channi
Hot tea in plastic-coated cups can leach BPA, an endocrine disruptor, increasing the risk of metabolic disorders like diabetes.
Adding too much sugar
Excess sugar intake can increase caloric intake, spike insulin/glucose levels, and increase health risks. Consuming tea more than three times a day requires strenuous exercise.
