Morning Tea Habit: Beware! Empty Stomach Tea Can Lead to Serious Illnesses

• Drinking tea on an empty stomach primarily harms the digestive system, causing gas, acidity, and indigestion due to caffeine and acid.
• Tannins in tea hinder nutrient absorption, especially iron, leading to weakness and increased risk of iron deficiency.
• Oral health is affected as tea on an empty stomach promotes bacterial growth, bad breath, and dental damage from sugar and milk.
• Caffeine can elevate stress hormones, causing nervousness, restlessness, sleep issues, and caffeine dependency.
• Health experts recommend drinking lukewarm water first, then a light breakfast, and only then tea to minimize side effects.
