Many scientific studies from prestigious health organizations around the world have proven that drinking green tea properly in the morning not only helps purify the body but also increases metabolism.
Green tea contains high content of catechin, especially epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), a powerful antioxidant that can help the liver remove toxins from the blood. Research shows that EGCG stimulates the activity of liver detoxification enzymes such as glutathione peroxidase and catalase, helping the body eliminate harmful free radicals.
Drink for 30-60 minutes after breakfast
However, to maximize the detoxification effect, the time and way to drink green tea in the morning are very important. According to nutritionists, green tea should be drunk about 30-60 minutes after breakfast instead of on an empty stomach, to avoid increasing stomach acid levels and causing discomfort.
In addition, tea should be brewed with hot water at 7080°C to avoid losing the biological activity of antioxidants.
A recommendation from the World Health Organization also emphasizes that moderate consumption of green tea, about 23 cups per day, can support liver function, reduce toxin accumulation and boost immunity. But you should not drink green tea that is too thick or too close to bedtime because it can cause insomnia due to caffeine content.
Drinking green tea in the morning, if done properly, at the right time and in reasonable doses, can help enhance the detoxification process, protect the liver and improve overall health in a scientific and sustainable way.
