Health care function of Pu 'er tea
Pu 'er cooked tea is made from Yunnan big leaf sun-dried tea by stacking fermentation. This kind of fermentation is a series of complex and intense biochemical reactions including oxidation, degradation and polymerization, and the substances produced by fermentation have unique health-preserving effects. Therefore, cooked tea not only has the health-preserving effect of ordinary tea, but also has the unique health-preserving effect that other tea does not have.
The main active components of cooked tea are thearubigins, theaflavin, theabrownin, gallic acid and vitamin C, etc. During the processing of fermented Pu 'er tea, due to the action of microorganisms, macromolecular polysaccharides are transformed into a large number of new soluble monosaccharides and oligosaccharides, and vitamin C also increases exponentially during the fermentation process, which plays an important role in improving the function of human immune system. During the fermentation of Pu 'er tea, flavonoids exist in the form of flavonoid glycosides, which have the function of vitamin P and are important substances to prevent human angiosclerosis.
Ripe Pu 'er tea, rich in beneficial bacteria, will not irritate the stomach after entering the human body, but can form an adhesive film on the surface of the stomach. One of the health functions of cooked tea is to protect the stomach. Regular drinking can nourish and protect the stomach. Untransformed raw tea, like green tea, has a certain stimulating effect on the stomach.
At the same time, according to the research data, the health care function of cooked tea can improve the function of enzymes to decompose waist and abdomen fat because of its unique fermentation technology. Pu 'er tea contains a small amount of lipase for lipolysis, which has a good effect on lipolysis.
The principle of nourishing the stomach with Pu 'er cooked tea.
1. After cooked tea is fermented, a large number of derived substances are basically small molecules, which are beneficial to human gastrointestinal absorption and have little irritation.
2. The pectin content in cooked tea is much higher than that in other teas. It not only embodies good adsorption, but also combines and eliminates bacterial toxins and other harmful substances in the body, such as lead, mercury and radioactive elements in heavy metals, and plays a detoxification role; At the same time, it can protect gastric mucosa and help digestion
3. The key point of the stomach nourishing effect of Pu 'er cooked tea lies in the fermentation quality. Someone has done such an experiment: brew three samples of green tea, Pu 'er tea (three-year-old cooked tea) and Pu 'er tea paste, and then put three cups of tea soup in the refrigerator. When the temperature of the tea soup drops to about 5 degrees above zero, take it out and observe whether the tea soup changes. At this time, we will find that the tea soup of green tea has a lot of milky suspended matter, which is the most turbid because of the decrease of pectin; Secondly, Pu 'er tea has a small amount of milky suspended matter, and the tea soup is brown, dark and impermeable, which is also due to the reduction and polymerization of macromolecules that are not completely decomposed during fermentation. The best one should be Pu 'er tea paste, without visible suspended matter and impurities. The color of tea soup is slightly darker than when it was just brewed.
This experiment tells us that unfermented tea contains a lot of macromolecular substances, and the temperature of its tea soup drops, which leads to the chemical reaction of material reduction polymerization and produces serious turbidity. The mild turbidity of Pu 'er tea is due to insufficient fermentation process and incomplete degradation of many substances. Pu 'er tea paste is the product of deep processing of Pu 'er tea, almost all of which are small molecules. Although there are also reduction and polymerization, the result is the polymerization of small molecules, but the tea soup is black. Can we also use this method to detect naturally fermented Pu 'er tea? Year? ,? Year? The shorter the tea, the more turbid it is. Year? The longer the tea time, the less turbidity. More than ten years old? Old tea? There should be no visible suspended solids and impurities, and the soup color will become more and more transparent with the increase of years. Over 30 years? Old tea? The change of soup color will not be too obvious.
Therefore, the most nourishing way to drink Pu 'er cooked tea is to drink a cup of warm cooked tea soup on an empty stomach every morning, preferably Pu 'er tea cream or Pu 'er cooked tea with better quality for more than three years. If conditions permit, it is certainly better to drink raw Pu 'er tea that has been naturally fermented for more than ten years. Especially for people with hyperacidity or gastritis and gastric ulcer, if you add a spoonful of honey when drinking, the effect of nourishing the stomach is more obvious.
Health Tips for Pu 'er Tea
1. Prevention and treatment of coronary heart disease
Coronary heart disease, also known as coronary atherosclerotic heart disease. Drinking tea is effective in preventing and treating coronary heart disease. According to statistics, the incidence of coronary heart disease among non-tea drinkers is 3. 1%, which is reduced to 2.3% for occasional tea drinkers and only 1.4% for regular tea drinkers (drinking for more than three years). In addition, the aggravation of coronary heart disease is related to coronary insufficiency and thrombosis. The tea pigment formed by the continuous oxidation of catechins and tea polyphenols in tea polyphenols during boiling has obvious anticoagulant, fibrinolytic and antithrombotic effects in vitro animal experiments.
bring down the blood pressure
Hypertension refers to the increase of systolic or diastolic blood pressure, which exceeds the normal level. Atherosclerosis not only leads to coronary heart disease, but also has a close relationship with hypertension. Lowering blood pressure means lowering blood pressure. Tea polyphenols, vitamin C and vitamin P in tea are all effective components for preventing and treating hypertension. In particular, tea polyphenols, catechins and theaflavins have obvious inhibitory effects on the activity of angiotensin conversion and can directly lower blood pressure.
3. Deep detoxification, slimming and firming.
Pu 'er tea can produce body fluid to quench thirst, relieve summer heat, detoxify and relieve constipation. MM especially suitable for constipation.

8. Nourish and protect the stomach
At a suitable concentration, drinking mild Pu 'er tea will not stimulate the stomach. Thick, sweet and mellow Pu 'er tea enters the human stomach and forms a thin film attached to the stomach surface, which produces a beneficial protective layer for the stomach. Drinking Pu 'er tea for a long time can nourish and protect the stomach.
9. Anti-aging
During the processing of Pu 'er tea, macromolecular polysaccharides were transformed into a large number of new soluble monosaccharides and oligosaccharides, and vitamin C increased exponentially. These substances play an important role in improving the function of human immune system, strengthening the body and prolonging life.
