Uncle Zhou: Lao Li, what tea are you drinking?
Uncle Li: My daughter and son-in-law came back a while ago and bought me Pu'er tea ! Come and try it!
Uncle Zhou: Pu'er tea? You still dare to drink?
Uncle Li: What's wrong? Why don’t you dare to drink it? Isn’t it still a famous tea?
Uncle Zhou: You don’t know? There were previously said that it causes cancer on the Internet, and some studies have found that it contains a lot of mold. Sometimes you should learn to learn that young people are online. You love drinking tea so much that you don’t know anything about this.
When Uncle Zhou said this, Uncle Li became worried. After returning home, he immediately told his daughter the news and asked her how much the tea cost. It was as Uncle Zhou said that mold can cause cancer. Can't you drink it? In the end, his daughter told him that he could drink, which made him confused. One said yes, and the other said yes, no, and whether he could drink it or not?
Among the many kinds of teas, Pu'er tea is relatively famous. Some people will buy it to drink it themselves, and some people will buy it to give it to their relatives and friends who love tea. But people are popular and have many troubles. Regarding it, there is a saying that "1 gram of ripe tea .5 billion molds, drinking it is equivalent to drinking dirty water." Some people even hear that Pu'er tea causes cancer. Is this true or false? Can you still drink it? Today I will talk to you about what happened. Friends who dare not drink it might as well take a look early. The facts may be different from what you think.
First, you need to know what ripe tea means?
People who love to drink tea may know that Artificially fermented is cooked tea. Pu'er tea can be divided into raw and ripe, and the one that has not been fermented by piles is raw tea .
said it has a risk of carcinogenic because Fang Zhouzi mentioned in Weibo before that he said it contains the carcinogen aflatoxin. So, there were rumors about 500 million molds of 1 gram of ripe tea.
1 grams of ripe tea 500 million molds? There is really aflatoxin in Pu'er tea. Is there a risk of carcinogenicity?
The research he mentioned was actually conducted under the storage conditions of wet warehouse . The author of the article pointed out that the samples used for detection were compared with at a low price . But generally speaking, Pu'er tea needs to be stored in in dry storage.
In this regard, Honorary Chairman of the my country Tea Society Chen Zongmao said that the fat and protein content in Pu'er tea is very low, and it is not the environment that aflatoxin likes. The tea polyphenols in tea also have an inhibitory effect on it.
An expert from Jiangsu Food and Drug Supervision and Inspection Institute said that after testing, it can be found that some heavily fermented teas, may breed mold , but is not necessarily a pathogenic bacteria , such as Pu'er tea.
It is true that during its fermentation, some microorganisms will indeed be produced, such as Aspergillus niger and Penicillium , but they are that are not harmful to human health. Aspergillus niger will instead inhibit the growth of Aspergillus aflatoxin.
can be seen from this that it is not as terrible as the legend. Generally speaking, the probability of aflatoxin appearing in it is very low . The reason why it was detected may be related to the contaminated tea leaves with , or the detection method is incorrect.
So, it is still possible to drink. However, when purchasing, you should pay attention. It is best not to buy with the price too low . It may not be stored in dry warehouses, and do not buy with obvious moldiness and . No matter how cheap it is, don't buy it, or with soft and rotten leaves and variegated , it is not recommended for everyone to buy it.
In addition, whether you are drinking Pu'er tea or other types of tea, I hope everyone should pay attention to the following points:
·Don't drink too hot, the hotter the tea, the better it is. Drinking it like this is not conducive to esophageal health.
However, for flacycin, everyone should pay attention to it. Although Pu'er tea is generally not easy to produce, there are relatively large possible causes in some other foods, such as the following, check whether there is any at home, and if there is any, it should be processed in time:
It is often found in nuts such as peanuts and walnuts, as well as some self-extruded oil . In addition to food, wooden chopsticks and cutting boards may also be produced if they are not cleaned in time after use.
Here I would like to remind everyone that for these foods, don’t stock up too much at once. The wooden tableware in the kitchen should be cleaned in time and replaced regularly. For vegetables, fruits and other foods, if you find that they have hair and smell, it is recommended not to continue eating them again. Remind the elderly at home not to save mistakes.
There are still some statements about drinking tea, such as the following two, what is the truth? Let me tell you about it next.
One: Do you drink tea immediately after a meal help with digestion?
Many people have this habit. It is actually OK to drink after a meal. The key is the word "right now". If you drink it immediately, it may be detrimental to your health. Because it contains a certain amount of tannic acid , drink it immediately and it will combine with protein in the food, and will instead affect the digestion of . So it is recommended that you drink it later.
The second: Can drinking tea relieve alcohol?
"Come on, drink some tea to relieve alcohol", "Drink strong tea to quit alcohol well", some people may think so, but in fact, this is just the substance inside it that makes people excited, giving people illusion . In fact, its role is very limited , and it is not reliable. If you drink strong tea , it will not be even worse. It may increase the burden on the body and cause discomfort.
For tea, if you like to drink, you can continue to drink it. You don’t have to stop drinking it because of the above rumors about Pu'er tea. Drinking tea in moderation is both internal and external. If you don’t like drinking tea, there is no need to follow the trend and don’t force yourself.
For friends who drink both alcohol and tea , please remind everyone to pay attention not to think that this can offset the harm of alcohol to the body. This is not good to offset directly. You can continue to drink tea, but it is recommended to quit drinking early.
or above is the content of this rumor about Pu'er tea, as well as some places and misunderstandings to pay attention to when drinking tea. I hope that friends who love drinking tea will have a correct understanding of this.
