The use of green tea is so overgrown with myths, assumptions and guesses that it is difficult to determine where the lie is and where the truth is.
One of the frequently asked questions & ndash; & nbsp; whether children can drink green tea remains open.
Scientists still continue to study the biochemical reactions that occur in the tea leaf before, during and after fermentation, but today there is a more or less formed position on green tea.
Why do I have a question about this particular product?
Because green tea is unfermented or low-fermented, which means it is practically not processed, preserving the natural complex of active substances.
What does WHO say?
According to the recommendations of the World Health Organization, newborns up to 6 months old breastfed do not need anything other than mother's milk. A baby on artificial nutrition, starting at 4 months old, can take complementary foods in the form of special decaffeinated children's teas.
Starting from 1-1.5 years old, you can gradually introduce your child into the diet green tea , following a number of medical recommendations:
- Drink only freshly brewed large-leaf tea of the highest grade without flavors, additives and impurities.
- Give tea only in the morning (but not before bed), avoiding the appearance of hyperexcitability and hyperactivity.
- Give a warm drink & ndash; not cold or hot, namely warm.
- Brew weak infusion.
- Limit yourself to 2-3 small cups.
Natural green tea is drunk without sugar: maximum, a child can add some honey to a cup in the absence of individual allergic reactions, but not overdo it with impurities.
This rule also applies to adults, because it is possible to open the entire tasty and aromatic bouquet of a drink only in the absence of & laquo; mufflers & raquo; additives.
