Contrary to the opinion of many who believe that tea is drunk only when a person is cold or sick, it turns out that this drink is the most popular after water, whether consumed hot or cold.
Tea is drunk all over the world - from the most remote corners of Africa to Antarctica. And all kinds of teas - and black, and green, and herbal teas, and fruit. A universal drink consumed by billions of consumers.
Here, however, we will focus on a special type of tea known as Karkade.
Called by many the most exquisite and delicate tea because of its purple-red leaves, Karkadeto turns out to serve not only to delight and quench thirst, but also has numerous benefits for human health.
Karkade tea you can also find it often as Hibiscus tea or less often as Roselle. It is available in the form of sachets, in bulk or even as a food supplement. It is well known to people who have high blood pressure, because it has been proven to lower it, often without the need for synthetic drugs.
IN the composition of Karkade tea includes many antioxidants, as well as anthocyanins, such as blueberries and raspberries. It is low in calories, does not contain caffeine and has proven its healing properties.
In addition to regulating blood pressure, Karkade tea is used and for regulating the digestive system, for weight loss, against stomach pain (acts as an analgesic and during the menstrual cycle), has anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties. Recent studies show that it even reduces the risk of cancer.
As with any tea, so with hibiscus, you must be careful not to overdo it. For all of the above benefits of karkade it is enough to consume 1-2 tsp. daily. With prolonged use, as well as in excess of the dose, there is a risk of becoming toxic to the liver and testicles. It is also not recommended for pregnant and lactating women.
As for the end of the article we will add that the petals of Karkadeto they should not be soaked in water for too long, and the water itself should not boil, because in this way its useful ingredients are lost. According to some studies on the properties of tea to lower blood pressure, it is even better to soak Hibiscus in cold (lukewarm) rather than hot water.
