It is more appropriate to drink black tea in the morning.
After a night's sleep, people are often in a relatively static state. Drinking black tea can promote blood circulation, at the same time, it can drive away the cold in the body and make the brain have sufficient blood supply. Black tea is mild in nature. You can brew a cup after getting up every morning, drink it after breakfast, or drink it with some milk.
Need to be reminded, don't drink tea on an empty stomach, because tea contains caffeine, which will make the intestine absorb too much caffeine, and there will be adverse reactions such as palpitation and frequent urination. After a long time, it will also affect the body's absorption of vitamin B. Simply put, drinking tea on an empty stomach will dilute gastric juice, reduce digestive function and easily cause gastritis. Coupled with the high absorption rate on an empty stomach, some bad ingredients in tea are absorbed into the blood, causing dizziness, palpitation, weakness of hands and feet, trance and other symptoms. This is the so-called "drunk tea", which is harmful to health.
Some people like to drink tea immediately after meals, which is also unscientific. Studies have shown that tea contains a lot of tannic acid. When drinking tea immediately after a meal, protein, iron and tannic acid in food are prone to agglutination. Because of the decrease of gastrointestinal function, it is difficult for the elderly to digest and absorb these coagulants, which will inevitably reduce the absorption of protein and iron. If you drink tea brewed with 15g tea leaves after meals, the absorption of iron in food will be reduced by at least 50%. Over time, it not only reduces the nutritional level, but also affects various physiological functions of internal organs, and is prone to iron deficiency anemia.
Therefore, it is not advisable to drink tea on an empty stomach or immediately after meals. It is best to drink tea half an hour after dinner.

How about drinking tea on an empty stomach?
The health care function of green tea is well known. Many people don't leave the cup all day, and some people get up in the morning and take a cup of green tea as a habit. However, Weng Kun, an associate researcher at the National Tea Quality Supervision and Inspection Center, reminded that drinking green tea on an empty stomach is not good for gastrointestinal health care.
Green tea is unfermented tea, which retains more natural substances in fresh leaves. However, it is these natural ingredients that will have adverse effects on the human body if drunk on an empty stomach.
On an empty stomach, some active substances in tea will combine with protein in the stomach, which will stimulate the stomach and easily hurt the stomach.
Drinking tea on an empty stomach not only stimulates the gastrointestinal tract, but also dilutes the digestive juice and affects digestion.
Generally speaking, drinking strong tea on an empty stomach after getting up early will not only cause gastrointestinal discomfort and loss of appetite, but also damage the normal function of the nervous system. But drinking light tea in the morning won't be too much of a hindrance. It is recommended to pour the first sip of tea and drink two sips of tea. Old people had better add a little sugar and a proper amount of white chrysanthemum when drinking tea.
Is it good or bad to get up in the morning and have tea now? In fact, it's that simple. That's the answer to today's question. The most important thing is not to drink tea on an empty stomach or overnight tea. Don't throw away finished tea. You can wrap it in gauze to get rid of odor, or you can put it in a flowerpot to raise flowers.
