Mumbai Surgeon Warns: Morning Tea & Biscuits Harm Your Gut, Spike Blood Sugar

• Dr. Manan Vora, a Mumbai orthopaedic surgeon, advises against starting the day with tea and biscuits.
• This common habit can lead to blood sugar spikes, energy crashes, and gastrointestinal issues like acidity and bloating.
• Tea's caffeine and tannins irritate the stomach lining when consumed on an empty stomach, increasing acid production.
• Biscuits, made from refined flour and sugar, offer empty calories, causing rapid blood sugar fluctuations and cravings.
• Dr. Vora recommends consuming tea after a light, protein/fiber-rich breakfast, paired with healthier options like nuts or eggs.
