Can strengthen your patients’ bones

Drinking tea can help strengthen bones and bone density. In this research carried out by The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. Women who drank tea long-term were found to have an increase in bone density compared to those who did not.

May Reduce Risk of Heart Attack and Stroke

According to this article from Harvard Health Magazine. Those who drank tea regularly and long-term had reduced their risk of heart attack and stroke. Drinking tea also reduces LDL cholesterol and triglyceride levels. Which correlates with a lower potential for accumulation in the arteries.**

** Antioxidants for your patients**

Like matcha, tea in general contains a large amount of antioxidants. These antioxidants can help fight cancer, prevent cell damage, and reduce inflammation in the body.**

** Increase the metabolism of your patients **

Teas also help increase your metabolism and break down fats. This is because the antioxidants and caffeine it contains work together to help break down fats at a faster rate and increase the body’s energy levels.**

Decreases stress hormone levels

Different types of teas (mainly herbal) can help reduce the levels of stress hormones in the body. This 2017 study showed that drinking less caffeinated tea helped its participants reduce their stress levels and sleep better. That is why it is recommended that you recommend it in consultation.
