Drinking tea improperly can be dangerous, especially for people with impaired liver function. In patients with hepatitis, fatty liver, cirrhosis..., the liver's detoxification and metabolism have been weakened to varying degrees.
If you still drink tea arbitrarily, especially strong tea or types of tea that do not guarantee quality, the liver will have to work overtime, thereby increasing the risk of damage, even leading to liver failure. Even types of tea that are often considered beneficial such as green tea, black tea, if used incorrectly or too much, can also cause unwanted effects.
Therefore, people with reduced liver function should drink tea in moderation and it is best to consult a doctor. Light, safe, and clear-sourced tea should be prioritized; avoid tea that is too stimulating, moldy, or of unknown origin. At the same time, you should not drink strong tea, drink too much on an empty stomach, or maintain an inappropriate tea drinking habit for a long time.
Although tea is a good drink for health, incorrect choices and drinking methods can adversely affect the liver. Each person needs to choose a type of tea that is suitable for their physical condition, form a scientific tea drinking habit to protect long-term liver health.
