Mouthwash with black tea can effectively prevent influenza

Scientists at the National Institutes of Health using nuclear magnetic resonance imaging technology to study the influenza virus found that the lipids on the surface of the influenza virus will harden in cold weather conditions, thus protecting the virus. Scientists believe that this may explain why winter will become a season of flu.

Vaccination has been unsatisfactory when the flu became popular. Therefore, we should consider Other daily preventive measures (such as more ventilation, washing hands frequently, serving Banlangen, etc.). Japanese scholars have suggested that black tea gargle helps prevent flu and can be tried.

Professor Shimamura, who teaches medicine at Showa University, did an experiment and divided 300 students into two groups: one group rinsed twice a day with black tea, while the other group did not. Five months later, the researchers found that the group of students in the mouth had basically not been knocked down by respiratory viruses such as flu.

The analysis shows that the catechin contained in black tea is an antioxidant that can inhibit free radical activity in the human body, help protect against external viruses, and prevent it from infecting human cells. Not only black tea, green tea has a similar effect, but black tea is preferred. In addition, the higher the quality of the tea, the better the prevention effect, and the inferior tea will basically have no effect.

Professor Shimamura emphasizes that it is more effective to pay attention to the way you use it. Get up each day after you get up and go home. The specific approach is to include 5% of the black tea water in the mouth for 20 seconds and then spit it out. This can be repeated 2 or 3 times. In addition to gargle, if you develop the habit of drinking black tea in winter, you can increase the preventive effect.
