What's the point of drinking tea in dog days?

It is best not to drink tea on an empty stomach, but to drink tea between meals or an hour or two after meals. Liu Qiquan said that when people are on an empty stomach, their stomach contains a lot of gastric acid, and tea can dilute gastric juice. The more tea you drink, the greater the pressure on your stomach, which is easy to cause palpitation and limb weakness. Drinking tea after meals will lead to iron deficiency in the human body. Because tannic acid in tea and iron in food will produce precipitation after mixing, which will hinder the body's absorption of iron.

Don't drink overheated tea. Excessive temperature will burn the mucous membranes of the mouth, pharynx, esophagus and stomach, which will lead to congestion and inflammation over time.
