Can green tea reduce internal heat?

Many people like to drink tea regularly. Generally speaking, drinking tea is also very helpful to us, especially green tea. Some Chinese medicine practitioners believe that green tea contains some elements needed by the human body and can improve the balance of yin and yang in the human body. In addition, drinking some green tea in summer can clear away heat and relieve summer heat. In fact, the effects of green tea are far more than that. Sometimes it has certain value. Let’s talk about whether green tea can relieve fire.

Green tea tastes slightly bitter and is cold in nature. It has the functions of clearing away heat, relieving summer heat, detoxifying, removing internal heat, reducing dryness, quenching thirst, promoting salivation, strengthening the heart and refreshing the mind. Green tea, green leaves and green soup are fresh and refreshing, sweet and slightly bitter and cold in taste. They are rich in vitamins, amino acids, minerals and other nutrients. Drinking them can not only relieve heat and fever, but also increase nutrition. Spring tea is the best quality green tea of ​​the year, especially the new tea that comes on the market around Qingming Festival and Guyu Festival. After a winter of nutrient accumulation, the tea leaves contain sufficient free amino acids, proteins and other nutrients, and the tea leaves have a refreshing aroma and taste. However, green tea is slightly cold in nature, so people with weak spleen and stomach should not drink it in large quantities to avoid damaging the spleen and stomach.

At the same time, green tea can reduce fat and weight, and prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. The relationship between drinking tea and losing weight is very close. The book "Shennong's Herbal Medicine" mentioned the weight-loss effect of tea more than 2,000 years ago: "Long-term consumption can calm the mind and benefit the qi... make the body light and prevent aging." Modern scientific research and clinical experiments have confirmed that drinking tea can lower blood lipids and cholesterol and make the body lighter. This is because the phenolic derivatives, aromatic substances, amino acids and vitamins in tea are coordinated, especially the combined effects of tea polyphenols, theanine and vitamin C, which can promote fat oxidation, aid digestion, reduce fat and lose weight.

For some middle-aged and elderly people, long-term drinking of green tea can enhance anti-aging ability, because green tea contains many kinds of chemical substances, which can effectively inhibit the occurrence of cerebrovascular diseases and reduce the incidence of heart disease in life. However, you should also pay attention to the time of drinking tea. Generally, the time for daily tea drinking should be controlled around 10 am and 3 pm.
