Many old smokers have switched to "tea cigarettes". Is using tea as a cigarette healthier than cigarettes?

Tea mainly uses tea instead of cut tobacco in traditional cigarettes, and tea is mostly "health preservation" in the public's impression, so merchants sell well all the way under the banner of "health preservation" and "quitting smoking". Seeing this, many people think that tea and cigarettes are not bad. However, this is not the case. Yi Zhu, an associate professor at the College of Food Science and Nutritional Engineering of China Agricultural University, said: Although tea smoke does not contain nicotine, it will also produce carbon monoxide, tar and inhalable particles during the ignition process, which is also harmful to health. It can be seen that although the components and manufacturing methods of these cigarettes may be different, both electronic cigarettes and tea cigarettes are as harmful to health as traditional cigarettes.

Eat more alkaline food: According to relevant research, if the human body is alkaline, it can remove harmful substances from cigarettes. Therefore, people who smoke for a long time can eat more alkaline foods such as milk or bean products, and can also help people quit smoking. Eat more foods that help lower cholesterol: Many people smoke for a long time, which is easy to cause abnormal cholesterol levels. At this time, there will be problems in the blood supply to the brain, which will easily accelerate the aging of the brain. So stay away from fatty foods and eat more dietary fiber foods, such as beef or fruit. Drinking tea regularly: Because of frequent smoking, gastric acid secretion may be affected, and human blood sugar is easily out of control, which will also lead to thickening of arterial dura mater. Tea polyphenols or other substances contained in tea can prevent cholesterol from depositing in the body and have a very good effect on stabilizing blood pressure and blood sugar. Therefore, when people drink water daily, they can put some tea leaves, which can not only promote urination, but also detoxify.

As for the statement that tea and cigarettes are beneficial to "nicotine-free, addiction-free and help to quit smoking", we should also treat them rationally. Tea is special, the main material is tea, not tobacco products. At the same time, because of the use and other reasons, it does not belong to the food category. This makes the status of tea cigarettes a bit embarrassing. Neither a food production license nor a tobacco monopoly production enterprise license can be obtained. Without these licenses, it is difficult to ensure the quality of tea and cigarettes produced, and there are certain security risks.
