When we go to the hospital for physical examination, doctors often tell us to drink more water and keep enough water intake. In daily life, there are indeed many people who like drinking tea very much, because tea not only tastes good, but also is considered to have a certain health care function. But who is more beneficial to health, drinking boiled water or drinking tea for a long time? Let's find out.
First of all, we can look at the benefits of boiled water to the human body. Boiled water is a pure water source without any additives, which can clean the stomach, moisturize the skin, help digestion and promote metabolism. Secondly, boiled water does not contain any nutrients, so it will not have any negative impact on the nutritional intake of the human body. Long-term stable intake of purified water can ensure the intake of water and trace elements needed by human body every day.
Of course, drinking tea also has many benefits. For example, tea is rich in antioxidants, which can effectively fight against free radicals in the body, delay aging, enhance immunity and prevent many diseases. In addition, tea also contains some substances that are very beneficial to cardiovascular health, which can reduce blood lipids and prevent cardiovascular diseases.
However, drinking tea also has some disadvantages. First of all, caffeine and theophylline contained in tea will have a certain exciting effect on the human body, leading to insomnia, neurasthenia and other problems. Secondly, oxalic acid and tannic acid in tea are easy to combine with calcium in human body, forming compounds that are not easily absorbed, leading to the loss of calcium, which has adverse effects on human body.
In addition, we also need to pay attention to the fact that many teas sold in the market contain toxic substances such as caustic potash. If we don't pay attention to the way of drinking, it may have a certain negative impact on our health. Moreover, too strong tea may also cause certain irritation to the human digestive system, leading to gastrointestinal discomfort and other problems.
To sum up, people who drink boiled water for a long time are healthier. Of course, this does not mean that drinking tea is necessarily harmful. Only by choosing the right amount of tea and drinking it reasonably can the benefits of tea be brought into play without bringing negative effects to the body.
Finally, it should be emphasized that everyone's physical condition and eating habits are different, and they need to choose according to their own specific conditions. If you are healthy and have no chronic diseases, drinking tea or boiling water will not pose much threat to your health. However, if you have a history of related diseases, it is recommended to consult a professional doctor or a professional nutritionist to choose a suitable drink and diet.
