Is herbal tea all that good?

Have you recently switched from coffee and soft drinks to herbal tea?

Then you should first read the list of ingredients, because not every herbal tea is as equally healthy for your body.

Many brands add ‘extras’ to their recipes to make them more tasty. These extras can be: dried fruit, sugar flakes, citric acid, E numbers …

When you drink a sweetened tea, your mouth is bathed in a dissolved sugar mixture. In this manner, sugar penetrates into every bit of your mouth and teeth.

And although warm sweetened drinks are no more harmful than cold ones, we usually drink warm drinks more slowly than cold ones. As a result, the sugar solution remains in the mouth longer, which is bad for the teeth, your figure and your general health.
