According to the research, tea contains more than 600 chemical components, of which there are five major categories that are very beneficial nutrients for human body. However, in daily life, there are quite a lot of misunderstandings about tea, which may bring potential health hazards.
Misunderstanding No.1: Strong tea "sober up". Some people believe that drinking strong tea after drinking alcohol has a "sober up" effect, which is a misunderstanding.
When people drink alcohol, ethanol in alcohol goes through the gastrointestinal tract into the blood, and is converted into acetaldehyde first and then into acetic acid in the liver, and then decomposes into carbon dioxide and water and discharged out of the body through the kidney. However, drinking strong tea after drinking alcohol, caffeine in tea can quickly exert diuretic effects, thereby promoting acetaldehyde which has not yet been decomposed into acetic acid (a substance with greater stimulating effect on the kidney)
