Key Wellness + Self-Care Strategies (Tea-Making)

Don’t trust random negative tea claims blindly

  • The speaker notes that many claims like “tea is poison” or “tea has no science” are largely hearsay.
  • Even so, the speaker still advises not to overdo tea.

Drink tea in moderation

  • 2–3 cups/day is suggested as beneficial.
  • Do not exceed 4 cups/day.

Add “boosters” to tea for extra health benefits

  • Ginger (must-add)

    • Anti-inflammatory effects
    • Helps reduce body inflammation and pain
    • May provide relief for joint pain
    • Supports digestion; may help with nausea
    • Suggested benefits also include supporting fitness and helping with weight reduction

  • Cinnamon (must-add)

    • Helps control blood sugar
    • Anti-microbial / infection-fighting properties
    • May help lower blood pressure
    • Adds aroma and mild sweetness to tea
    • Choose the right type: Sri Lankan cinnamon is recommended as more beneficial than Indian/Chinese varieties

  • Optional bonus: Small cardamom

    • Improves digestion
    • Supports blood circulation
    • Stimulates nerves / helps increase energy
    • Helps strengthen nerves

Exact ingredient amounts (per cup)

  • Grated ginger: ~1/2 teaspoon
  • Ground cinnamon: ~1/4 teaspoon
  • Cardamom: 1 small pod, lightly crushed (if using)

Better cooking method for maximizing benefits

  • Put water first, then add ginger + cinnamon + cardamom, and boil well.
  • Cook on low flame for better results.
  • Add milk only after the water starts boiling (as described by the speaker).
  • The speaker claims this helps because:
    • Tea antioxidants dissolve better into the water/milk
    • Ingredients dissolve more effectively, improving overall benefits

Use jaggery instead of sugar

  • Replace sugar with jaggery.
  • Reason given: sugar is described as “white poison,” while jaggery provides sweetness without sugar-related harm.
  • If possible, they recommend “free tea” (no sweetener). Otherwise, use jaggery.

Timing guidance

  • Avoid drinking tea immediately after meals.
  • Claim: tea may reduce absorption of iron and other nutrients, so you may not get full benefit from food.
