There are types of water that have long been on the "blacklist" because they are toxic, but many people don't know and drink them almost every day.


The liver is one of the most important organs in the human body, once damaged it is very difficult to recover. Therefore, forming healthy eating habits is also a way to protect this organ. However, there are popular drinks that can silently destroy your liver. If you are still drinking them, give up this habit soon to protect your health.

1. Strong tea

Green tea is a drink that brings many health benefits, but if you drink it the wrong way, it can also cause unpredictable consequences. One of them is the habit of many people drinking strong tea.

Although strong tea has a strong flavor, it poses many health risks, especially to the liver and kidneys. Accordingly, caffeine and polyphenols in strong tea cause the liver to work too hard to metabolize, leading to overload, which can eventually lead to liver cell damage and impaired liver function. For people with liver disease, drinking strong tea puts even more pressure on the liver, worsening existing liver disease and making it difficult for liver function to recover.

2. Moldy tea

Tea also has an expiration date. If not stored properly, the shelf life of tea will also be shortened. “Expired” tea not only directly affects the taste and aroma of the tea but also affects the health of the drinker.

Many people think that “the longer the tea is kept, the better it tastes”, but they do not know that if the tea is not stored properly, the ingredients of the tea will deteriorate, especially the concentration of mold toxins will gradually increase. Especially for the liver, drinking moldy tea for a long time can be extremely harmful such as irritating the digestive tract, promoting inflammation, leading to bloating, nausea, abdominal pain, diarrhea, poisoning and increased gastric acid secretion due to damage to the intestinal mucosa and stomach. Studies have also shown that aflatoxin in moldy tea can cause liver cell mutations, damage liver cells and lead to cancer.

Therefore, during use, keep tea in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and humid areas such as the kitchen and bathroom. When you detect signs of mold, you should throw it away or your body will get sick.

Two types of liver tonic water are very good, everyone should use them

According to health experts, drinking these two types of water 40 minutes before going to bed will bring wonderful benefits to the liver in particular and the body in general:

1. Chamomile tea

Chrysanthemum tea is a decoction made from dried or sun-dried chrysanthemum flowers mixed with hot water at a temperature of about 90-95 degrees Celsius. This is a drink that should be consumed in the evening because in addition to its natural insomnia-curing properties, it also brings many other health benefits.

Accordingly, researchers believe that chamomile contains a flavonoid compound called apigenin, which has sleep-inducing properties. Therefore, drinking chamomile tea before bed will help calm the nerves and effectively treat insomnia.

Chrysanthemums also have a cooling effect, dilating blood vessels, so when consuming chrysanthemum tea, the body maintains stable blood pressure, while also helping to purify and detoxify the liver effectively. Very suitable for people who often suffer from heat and heat in the body.

2. Water mixed with honey

Honey water is also a liver drink that many people can refer to. In particular, if you drink this type of water at least 40 minutes before going to bed, it will help the liver have more "fuel" to produce glucose, promoting the release of many fat-burning hormones that are good for liver function throughout the night.

Drinking a glass of warm honey before going to bed also helps promote digestive activity, helps eliminate toxins in the body in time, and reduces constipation quite effectively. In addition, the antibacterial substances in honey also help destroy pathogens to protect health.
