Maybe some people in life think that overnight tea can't be drunk, but it's no problem to continue drinking the tea brewed in the morning at night. In fact, this is also a wrong idea. Generally, tea leaves are not fresh after being soaked for 12 hours, especially in hot summer, even if the tea doesn't stay overnight, the bacteria in the tea have exceeded the standard, which easily leads to gastrointestinal discomfort. Therefore, overnight tea does not mean overnight tea. Tea soaked for more than 12 hours can become overnight tea. Try not to drink it.

Why can't you drink overnight tea

If you drink overnight tea, it may lead to the taste of tea and diarrhea, so try not to drink overnight tea in daily life.

Overnight tea has an extremely absurd meaning in ancient times. Like many rumors, it has not been proved by modern medicine. This is just a means for the preacher to consolidate his speech authority. From the perspective of modern science, the focus of overnight tea is actually not only overnight, but also how long the tea should have the best effect, how long it will lose its nutrition and how long it will produce harmful substances.

For some strong teas, it has been proved by medical science that if the soaking time exceeds a certain limit, there will be some side effects and some corresponding harmful substances. For fresh plant tea such as chrysanthemum and medlar, it will produce a substance that is beneficial to the body.
