The Wild Truth of Tea - Chapter two: Tea & Health
Tea as Medicine
Because of its well-known health benefits, more and more people are choosing to drink tea, but unfortunately, they aren’t choosing the correct way to drink it. Tea just started to get popular in recent years. I worry that ten years from now, tea drinkers may be experiencing negative health impacts rather than benefits.
I’m not going to talk about chemicals and other harmful things related to tea growing, as you probably got the general idea from the first chapter about the tea business. Instead, I am now going to talk about how the method of drinking tea can either make you healthy or make you sick, depending on how you go about it.
In ancient Chinese medicine, there is a very important theory:“上公治未病， 中工治已病， 下工治末病。” “If a doctor can make sure you are always healthy, and before you get sick he has already treated the illness, this type of doctor is the best;If the doctor cannot tell before you get sick, but can heal you when you get sick, this is the middle level doctor;If the doctor can only treat you when you already have a terrible disease, this is the worst type of doctor.”
