Many people in China like drinking tea. Tea tasting is a kind of enjoyment and a process of self-cultivation. Tea and tea can not only clear away heat, but also inhibit bacteria. Even people who don't like tea will have some tea at home, or entertain guests, or make tea eggs and so on.
However, we usually throw away tea after drinking it, but it's just a waste of tea. Few people know that soaking feet with leftover tea leaves can achieve rich health-preserving effects, which can not only relieve fatigue, dredge meridians, dispel cold and dampness, but also have the functions of sterilization, relieving itching, improving sleep and preventing colds.
1, relieving fatigue
When you feel particularly tired, you can soak your feet with hot tea. Pour a proper amount of tea leaves into hot water, soak your feet after mixing well, and dry them after your feet are red and your blood vessels are clear. This method can quickly eliminate fatigue and reduce foot odor.
2, the treatment of heel crack
The astringent effect of tea can repair cracked skin well. If vinegar is added to the soaking water, the skin smoothness can be increased, and the crack can be healed after one week.
3, sterilization, itching, beriberi.
Tea contains tannic acid, which has a good bactericidal effect, especially on filamentous bacteria that cause beriberi. Catechins in tea have the functions of disinfection, sterilization and deodorization. In addition, tea itself has the functions of convergence and taste absorption, and the taste absorption effect is very good. Adding some salt to tea can also remove foot odor. Long-term use has a good effect on dermatoses caused by fungi such as beriberi.
