Caffeine in tea
Caffeine is a metabolic booster. Once entering the body, it will pass through the blood circulation to the brain, increasing the excitement of the central nervous system, thereby promoting the digestive system, excretion, respiratory system... to work together.
Some people will work harder, some people will go to the toilet regularly, some people will feel red and sweat. For others, the digestive system will work more effectively and the rate of stomach emptying will be faster, which makes them more likely to be hungry.
Therefore, black tea or tea with high caffeine content, such as black tea, lightly fermented oolong tea, is likely to make people feel hungry after drinking.
Polyphenols in tea
Polyphenols in tea have a certain effect on regulating blood sugar levels. When blood sugar levels drop, people will feel hungry and want to eat.
These substances will also affect some hormones involved in satiety and hunger. Some people's bodies are affected by this, so they will easily feel hungry after drinking tea.
