3 Reasons Why Women in the Office Must Drink Tea
1. Protect Vision
Staring at a computer every day, even the healthiest eyes will inevitably suffer from fatigue and dryness over time. Even if you don't have myopia, you should consider brewing this drink regularly. It is very helpful for eye soreness, fatigue, and vision decline caused by long-term computer use.
【Recommended Tea】
10 Chrysanthemum flowers, 5 Globe flowers, 5g Cassia seeds, 3g Goji berries, steep in boiling water for 3-5 minutes.
For office workers who often have dry eyes, chrysanthemum is the top choice. Chrysanthemum clears heat and detoxifies, nourishes the liver and brightens the eyes, and can refresh the mind and brighten the vision. It is particularly effective for dry eyes caused by liver fire and overuse of the eyes. Globe flowers soothe the throat, nourish the liver, and brighten the eyes. Cassia seeds have a very significant effect in treating eye diseases. Goji berries tonify the liver, benefit the kidneys, and brighten the eyes. They are a great food for nourishing yin and blood. Drinking it daily can improve fatigue from eye strain and keep the eyes moist and bright.
Note: Cassia seeds have been used since ancient times to improve eyesight, but note that only roasted cassia seeds can be steeped; raw ones are too hard and stubborn to be infused. Roasted cassia seeds are sold in Chinese pharmacies like Tong Ren Tang. Additionally, cassia seeds have long been hailed as a natural laxative. Drinking a cup of cassia seed tea after dinner every day can help eliminate oil and flatten the abdomen.
2. Anti-Radiation
Radiation is the biggest enemy in the office and cannot be ignored, as it is directly linked to a terrifying word—cancer.
