Tea with 22 times more calcium than milk is named
Black mulberry tea contains numerous health benefits. It is known for its high calcium content, which is even higher than in milk, reports The Mirror.
Why this tea is good for you
High calcium content
Dairy products and certain fish, such as salmon, trout, and tuna, are indeed natural sources of calcium. However, lesser-known foods can replace these traditional sources.
This is especially important when addressing deficiencies that can lead to conditions such as osteoporosis, which weakens bones and is common in older adults. While a glass of milk can help, black mulberry tea may be an even better choice, as it provides up to 22 times the amount of calcium.
This tea has long been used in traditional Asian medicine.
The Japanese Ministry of Health has conducted a study emphasizing its benefits over dairy products in osteoporosis.
This drink can regulate blood sugar levels, strengthen the immune system, promote healthier aging (thanks to antioxidants), improve heart health, and has anti-inflammatory effects.
Eases menopausal symptoms
The leaves of the plant have anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, hematopoietic, expectorant, diuretic, anti-diabetic, wound healing, and general tonic effects.
Mulberry leaf tea is drunk to relieve menopausal symptoms, as well as to normalize fat and carbohydrate metabolism. It helps to lower cholesterol and blood sugar levels.
Regular consumption helps to normalize blood pressure and thins the blood.
To make tea, take one or two tablespoons of dry mulberry leaves and half a liter of water. Boil the water, add the leaves, and let it brew for 5-10 minutes.
There are also dietary supplements that contain mulberry extracts or specially processed forms of active ingredients.
