Recently at Kings College in London UK, a research was conducted and it was concluded that drinking Black Tea may be helpful for diabetic sufferers. Black Tea appeared to stimulate the insulin response in diabetic sufferers and reduce blood sugar levels. Sixteen people took part and drank glucose in either water or water plus a small amount of caffeine or water mixed with black tea. After approximately two hours, plasma concentrations were tested and showed a dramatically reduction from those who consumed the water mixed with black tea compared to those who consumed plain water or the caffeine drink.
Some of the protective benefits of black tea and diabetic sufferers are:
- lowers your risk from several types of cancer
- reduces cholesterol reduces high blood pressure
- promotes heart health
- strengthens the body’s immune system
- reduce blood sugar level
Black Tea contains caffeine so if you are sensitive, it would be best to drink decaffinated Black Tea andyou would ingest all of the benefits but would not have issues.
