Long-term drinking of boiled water compared to long-term tea drinkers
Whose body is healthier?
How to choose boiled water and tea?
A healthy adult has about 60% of the water in the human body, and a healthy child has a relatively higher proportion of water in the body, about 80%.
If someone does not consume food for a long time, only relies on the various nutrients and energy stored by themselves, and maintains the continuous consumption of the body's life activities, the survival is often about 7 days. If a person does not drink water for a long time, it only takes about three days to face a life and death decision.
The importance of water in the human body is self-evident, if the human body loses more than 10% of water, it will cause serious damage to its own health. If the human body loses more than 20% of water, there will be a threat to life safety, so it is very important to pay attention to hydration.
The current living conditions have improved significantly compared to the past, and there are diverse ways to replenish water. For example, most elderly people like to drink tea in their free time, and younger children are more fond of various carbonated drinks. In fact, among the various types of drinks that are exposed to daily life, the healthiest is not boiled water in terms of universality.
Long-term tea drinking
Tea can be made by soaking tea leaves, which is a natural ingredient that does not require chemical processing and no other products to add. After drinking tea, it can promote human urination, play a certain diuretic effect, and effectively reduce symptoms when edema problems occur.
Precautions for drinking tea
1. Avoid brewing tea leaves many times
The number of brews of tea has a certain limit, most of the tea leaves after about three or four times of brewing, the tea juice components will be significantly insufficient, to replace the new tea leaves in a timely manner.
2, drink less strong tea
The content of theophylline in strong tea is more, compared with other teas, it has stronger irritation, and a large amount of drinking is easy to cause insomnia.
3, do not drink too hot tea
If the temperature is too high during the drinking process of tea, it is easy to burn the phenomenon and seriously stimulate the stomach, esophagus, throat and other tissues and organs. Especially if a person does not pay attention to the temperature of tea for a long time, often drinking too hot water will increase the risk of local lesions.
Foreign studies have found that if a person drinks tea for a long time when the water temperature is above 62 ° C, it will damage the mucous membrane of the stomach wall to a certain extent, and the disease problem will inevitably occur. Under normal circumstances, people should keep the tea temperature not exceeding 56 ° C during the tea drinking process.
Drink boiled water for a long time
The metabolism in the human body needs to rely on water, and maintaining sufficient drinking water can improve the formation of metabolic functions, accelerate the absorption and utilization of nutrients in food, and also play a certain role in body temperature regulation.
Drinking an appropriate amount of boiled water every day regulates body temperature while regulating body temperature and reducing adverse effects during urination and sweating.
Precautions for drinking boiled water
1, a small number of times
The amount of water consumed at a time should be controlled within 200 ml, while avoiding drinking water too fast, which can be better absorbed and utilized by the gastrointestinal tract. If the one-time drinking amount is too much, the excess water is prone to waste.
2, avoid feeling thirsty before drinking water
When a person feels thirsty in his daily life, it has been shown that the body is dehydrated, and the degree of dehydration is about 2%. When more than 10%, health will inevitably be negatively affected, so everyone should actively drink water in their daily lives.
3. The daily water intake is controlled at more than 1500 ml
In the process of life activities, the human body loses about 2500 ml of water in a day, and the amount of water supplementation is about 1000 ml to maintain a normal diet. This requires everyone to drink at least 1500 ml of water in their daily life to ensure that the water metabolism in the body maintains a balanced state.
