1, drinking slimming tea helps to lose weight.
Aromatic compounds contained in tea can dissolve fat, and turbidity can prevent fat from accumulating in the body. Vitamins B 1, C and caffeine can promote the secretion of gastric juice, help digestion and reduce fat. Functional and toxicological experiments show that slimming tea can promote fat metabolism, maintain normal physiological functions, and overcome the shortcomings that slimming products such as replacing diet products, expelling foreign exchange products, and inhibiting nerve products destroy diet laws, reduce human functions, and thus induce other diseases. Tea polyphenols in tea have the functions of improving metabolism, antioxidation and scavenging free radicals. Many triglycerides can decompose lipase and activate protein kinase, thus reducing the accumulation of fat cells, thus achieving the effect of losing weight.
Tea is an ancient pharmaceutical dosage form with a history of thousands of years, but it has been extinct in modern times for various reasons. In recent years, with the development of science and technology and the enhancement of people's health awareness. Modern tea basically abandoned the previous practice of no fixed form of tea, and used sterile and nontoxic non-woven cotton paper bags to clarify the tea extract. No residue can be fully dissolved from the ingredients, and at the same time, the contact between hands and drugs is reduced. It is convenient and hygienic to use. Tea can be divided into two categories, one is composed of pure Chinese medicine, and the other is a mixture of tea and Chinese medicine. Most slimming teas belong to the latter category.
The first is to maintain the taste of tea in slimming tea, of which tea accounts for about half. Tea includes oolong tea, black tea, Pu 'er tea, scented tea and green tea. Tea itself has a good weight loss effect. In ancient times, there were classifications of "eliminating phlegm and relieving fatigue" and "drinking more to eliminate fat". "Herbal Supplement" in Tang Dynasty said that "drinking tea for a long time can make people lose weight and remove body fat". Modern science has proved that tea is rich in hundreds of components such as alkaloids, vitamins, amino acids and trace elements, many of which can promote human fat metabolism and reduce cholesterol and triglycerides. Secondly, the lipid-lowering and slimming drugs in slimming tea are homologous to some medicines and foods, and their effects are mild. They have long supplemented the lipid-lowering and weight-reducing effects of tea, and indeed have certain lipid-lowering and health-care effects. Therefore, although the market of slimming tea is surging, new slimming tea is constantly introduced, but there is still a certain market for slimming tea.
2. Long-term drinking is harmful to health.
Regarding all kinds of slimming teas containing Chinese herbal medicines on the market, Zhang Jianguo said that it is not only possible to choose these products for relaxing bowels, and drinking them indiscriminately for a long time is harmful to the health. Relatively speaking, OTC drugs are approved by the State Drug Administration. After long-term application, it is confirmed that the efficacy is exact, the quality is stable, and it is safe to take them at the prescribed dose under the guidance of doctors. In addition, Zhang Jianguo warned: "The choice of drugs depends on physical fitness. For example, people with qi deficiency and blood deficiency should not choose irritating drugs, and should choose drugs combined with laxatives. "
There are also some salt laxatives on the market, most of which contain magnesium sulfate and sodium sulfate. By absorbing a lot of water, they increase the intestinal content, stimulate the intestinal mucosa and enhance intestinal peristalsis, thus defecating. Zhang Jianguo said: "This laxative has a quick and strong effect, and it is mainly used to eliminate toxins in the intestines. It is recommended to take it on an empty stomach in the morning. " For the elderly and infirm, Zhang Jianguo suggested using lubricating laxatives, which are mild and will not cause severe diarrhea.
In addition, Zhang Jianguo also reminded: "Drugs for relaxing bowels should not be taken for a long time. Patients with long-term constipation should seek medical treatment in time and choose the appropriate treatment according to the clinical examination results. Some constipation patients need biofeedback treatment, and even surgery is needed in severe cases. " It is understood that biofeedback therapy is mainly aimed at constipation caused by defecation disorder, and patients are trained in defecation through anorectal manometer, so that patients can correctly learn the coordinated movements of muscles during defecation, thus improving the therapeutic effect of constipation.
To relieve constipation, you should adjust your diet.
"In addition to medication, the key to relieving constipation is to cultivate reasonable eating habits and regular defecation habits." Zhang Jianguo said.
First of all, don't be picky about food, eat more vegetables and fruits with high cellulose, and eat more coarse and dull miscellaneous grains, such as potatoes, corn, barley, honey and oily food. According to the recommendation of American Dietetic Association, adults should consume 20-35 grams of dietary fiber every day, and constipation patients should consume at least 30 grams. For example, half a cup of mung beans can provide 5 grams of dietary fiber; A small apple provides 3 grams; A bowl of oat bran is provided 13g. For the elderly, to form a good habit of getting up early, drinking a cup of light salt water on an empty stomach and a cup of yogurt before going to bed can play a certain role in preventing constipation.
Secondly, we should pay attention to the combination of work and life. As the saying goes, "Exercise, exercise and defecation are self-help". For sedentary people, they should take more walks, run, turn around and lift their legs, do deep breathing exercises and participate in cultural and sports activities. These can strengthen gastrointestinal activities, increase appetite, exercise diaphragm, abdominal muscles and anal muscles, thus improving defecation motivation.
Finally, Zhang Jianguo stressed: "We must establish a good defecation law, form a conditioned reflex over time, defecate in time when defecating, and don't exercise restraint." He suggested going to the toilet after breakfast, because colon propulsion is more active and defecation is easy during this period, so whether there is defecation or not, we should stick to going to the toilet at that time and form feedback of defecation biological clock. In addition, reading books, playing mobile phones and smoking are not suitable. When going to the toilet, put an end to all bad habits that distract attention and prolong defecation time.
4. Ten Taboos for Drinking Diet Tea
(1) likes to drink new tea.
Because of its short storage time, new tea contains more unoxidized polyphenols, aldehydes and alcohols, which has a strong stimulating effect on human gastrointestinal mucosa and is easy to induce stomach diseases. Therefore, drink less new tea and avoid new tea that has been stored for less than half a month.
(2) Drinking tea for the first time
Because tea is polluted by harmful substances such as pesticides in the process of planting and processing, there will always be some residues on the surface of tea, so the first-time tea should be discarded because of its washing function.
(3) Drinking tea on an empty stomach
Drinking tea on an empty stomach will dilute gastric juice, reduce digestive function, increase water absorption rate, and lead to a large number of bad components in tea entering the blood, causing dizziness, palpitation, weakness of hands and feet and other symptoms.
(4) Drink tea after meals
Tea contains a lot of tannic acid, which can react with iron in food to form new substances that are difficult to dissolve. Over time, it will cause iron deficiency and even induce anemia. The correct way is to drink tea an hour after meals.
(5) Drink tea at night
It is best to drink black tea at night. Because green tea belongs to non-fermented tea, it has high content of tea polyphenols and strong irritation; Black tea is a kind of completely fermented tea with weak irritation. Especially for people with weak spleen and stomach, adding some milk when drinking black tea can play a certain role in warming the stomach.
When drinking tea at night, put less tea and don't make the tea too strong. It's best to drink after meals. Drinking tea on an empty stomach can easily inhibit the secretion of gastric juice, hinder digestion, and seriously cause palpitations, headaches and other "tea drunkenness" phenomena.
People who are usually easily excited or sensitive, have poor sleep and are weak should drink less or not drink tea at night.
(6) Drink tea when you have a fever
Tea contains theophylline, which can raise body temperature. Drinking tea for patients with fever is tantamount to "adding fuel to the fire".
(7) Drinking tea during menstruation
Drinking tea during menstruation, especially strong tea, will induce or aggravate menstrual syndrome. Medical experts have found that compared with people who don't drink tea, people who have tea habits are 2.4 times more likely to have menstrual tension, and those who drink more than 4 cups of tea a day are 3 times higher.
(8) Patients with ulcers drink tea.
Caffeine in tea can promote gastric acid secretion, increase gastric acid concentration, induce ulcers and even perforation.
(9) unchanged
The climate is different all year round, and the types of tea should be adjusted accordingly. It is advisable to drink scented tea in spring, which can disperse the cold evil accumulated in the body all winter and promote the hair growth of human yang; It is advisable to drink green tea in summer. Green tea tastes bitter and cold, and it can clear away heat and relieve summer heat, detoxify, enhance gastrointestinal function, promote digestion, prevent diarrhea and skin boils infection. Green tea should be drunk in autumn. Green tea is neither cold nor hot, which can completely eliminate the residual heat in the body, restore sweetness and warmth, and make people feel refreshed; It is advisable to drink black tea in winter, which is sweet and rich in protein and has a certain nourishing effect.
(10) Don't choose different teas according to your physique.
Tea can be divided into coolness and warmth through different production processes. People with hot and dry constitution should drink herbal tea, while those with deficient and cold constitution should drink warm tea.
