Russian nutritionist Dr. Elena Solomatina announced that the Consumer Protection Service has asked tea producers to take the necessary measures to clean their products of pesticides after they were discovered in known varieties.
According to her, in general, the most dangerous type of tea is tea packaged in bags. Because in addition to tea, it contains dust from various sources, and of course everything depends on the production conditions. Also, the material of the bags in which the tea is packaged can contain plastic particles. In addition, mold develops quickly in such tea, so she does not recommend using tea bags always.
According to her, when choosing tea, it is preferable to focus on tea with large leaves and in transparent containers that allow you to see what is inside. You should also check its expiration date.
She says: "Green tea contains a higher percentage of amino acids, which improves performance and concentration. It also contains a higher percentage of caffeine than black tea, so it is more invigorating."
She points out that with this, any type of tea should be consumed in moderation - 4 cups a day. It is also not recommended to drink concentrated tea, as it can cause irregular heartbeat and excite the nervous system.
The expert warns that tea contains oils that quickly oxidize when exposed to the sun, which makes it harmful. Once tea is exposed to moisture, mold and bacteria quickly develop in it.
