Tea addiction is generally divided into two situations. One is physical addiction and the other is psychological addiction.
Physiologically:
Tea contains caffeine, which is the source of many physiological addictions. Caffeine can excite the central nervous system of the human body and then refresh itself. Generally, you are not addicted to tea, but you may get drunk. Even if you are addicted, tea is not addictive and it is easy to quit. Moreover, people with different constitutions have different reactions to caffeine and bear different amounts; Different teas contain different amounts of caffeine. This varies from person to person and from tea to tea.
It's not so much a tea addiction as a craving! Moreover, this "craving" is mostly aimed at some specific tea products. Just like you like to eat hot pot, if you don't eat it for a while, you may want to eat it very much.
Secondly, tea contains a substance called theanine, which has obvious relaxing effect on human body and can play a certain role in calming the nerves. A study in London found that polyphenols and flavonoids contained in black tea have sedative effects and can make the body produce cortisol (the body needs cortisol to maintain normal physiological functions under pressure; No cortisol. The body will not be able to cope with stress effectively. ) the level has dropped by 47%. A drop in cortisol levels will make people feel relaxed.
Psychologically:
We say that people who are addicted to tea may sometimes have psychological effects. Just like those who love spicy food, if you mention spicy food, his mouth may immediately secrete saliva.
People who are psychologically addicted may be addicted to the environment and atmosphere of drinking tea in the process; Or have any new hobbies when drinking tea; Make you feel comfortable both physically and psychologically; When drinking tea and making tea, you will relax and release the pressure. Tea and mind and spirit produce an indescribable sound.
