Health and Wellness News: With the large temperature difference between morning and evening in autumn, many elderly people experience discomfort such as stomach cramps, cold pain, and bloating when they go out for exercise. Drinking a cup of hot black tea can relieve stomach cramps.
Black tea is warm in nature and sweet in taste, and has the effect of warming the stomach and relieving pain. Black tea is made through fermentation. Under the action of oxidase, the polyphenols in tea undergo an enzymatic oxidation reaction, and their content is reduced, which makes it less irritating to the stomach. In addition, the oxidation products of these polyphenols can warm and nourish the stomach, protect the gastric mucosa, promote human digestion, and also have a certain effect on treating ulcers. When the stomach is cold and cramping with pain, you can take 3 grams of black tea, brew it with 150 ml of water, and drink it while it is hot. The cramps can be relieved in about ten minutes. It should be reminded that black tea is not suitable for drinking cold, as this will affect the stomach-warming effect and may also reduce the nutritional content due to the long storage time.
