What is the harm to the body by heating the prepared tea repeatedly?

The Dhaka Times Desk Almost everyone in the family has the habit of drinking tea. So instead of making tea again and again, many people have the habit of making it once and heating it again and again. It saves some time. But we do not know whether it harms the body or not. Find out today.

I don't like cold tea at all. So, after a while of drinking tea, it is often requested to heat it again. Roadside tea shops also often serve tea that has been brewed multiple times. As the fresh smell of the tea is lost, the taste and nutritional quality are also lost. Not only that, drinking tea that has been boiled more than once can also be harmful to the body.

Is it really safe to reheat brewed tea?

# Heating tea for too long can destroy both the caffeine and tannins in the tea. The tea tastes bitter and is not good for the body. Repeated drinking of hot tea also increases the risk of esophageal cancer.

# Tea leaves contain a variety of bacteria and fungi that multiply when heated. Drinking tea with excess bacteria can cause glaucoma in the eye and even affect the nerves. It can also reduce memory and eyesight.

# Common tea contains the beneficial anti-oxidant catechin. And milk contains protein like casein. Repeated heating of tea mixed with milk can mix the catechins and casein and destroy the benefits of the tea. It also affects digestion. Diarrhea, stomach problems can also occur after drinking this hot tea. Source: Anandabazar Patrika.

How to prevent dengue

Dengue is a mosquito-borne viral fever. This fever is different from other viral or bacterial fevers. However, this fever is not contagious in any way. This viral fever can occur alone or in combination with other viruses (chikungunya, yellow fever, Burma forest, flu, respiratory syncytial) and bacteria (pneumococcus).

Dengue fever is divided into two categories depending on the severity of symptoms and fever.

1. Common dengue fever

2. Dengue fever with bleeding.

In the case of common dengue fever, the following symptoms are mainly seen-

1. Sudden high fever lasting 2 to 7 days.

2. Severe headache.

3. Pain behind the eyes.

4. Along with the fever, red rash appears all over the body.

5. Severe pain in whole body as well as back pain.

6. Nausea or vomiting.

7. A rash or red bumps on the skin.

In case of dengue fever with bleeding:

1. Bleeding from nose, mouth or vomiting with high fever within 2 to 48 hours.

2. Fluid accumulation in chest or abdomen along with fever.

If any of these symptoms appear, seek medical attention immediately.

On the other hand

Wait at home for the first 3 days of fever. On the other hand, sponge the whole body with water every now and then. This will reduce the level of fever. Drink enough water and rest. After that, if the fever does not decrease or if it continues to increase after some time, consult a doctor immediately.

Things to do to prevent Dengue:

1. Try to keep the surroundings of the house as clean as possible.

2. If there are flower tubs or broken plastic bottles, can shells, tires or polythene inside the house, clean them quickly and drain the accumulated water from the flower tubs.

3. Spray or fog at least 3 times a week to kill mosquitoes.

4. You can keep mosquito repellent cream with you while going out.

5. After evening, younger and older members of the household should use mosquito nets.

6. Clean up any accumulated rain water, as this is the time when Aedes mosquitoes lay their eggs.

7. On the other hand, you can use mats along with mosquito nets to avoid mosquito infestation.

8. Since Aedes mosquitoes bite during the day, it is important to avoid sleeping with mosquito nets while sleeping during the day. Source: https://dmpnews.org
