Is tea in bags harmful? Remember once and for all

How dangerous is packaged tea.

Tea bags can be harmful depending on its quality and composition, so it is better to minimize its consumption to 2-3 mugs a day, gastroenterologists have reported, Ukr.Media informs.

Bagged tea often contains crushed parts of the tea leaves, which may lose some of their beneficial properties compared to quality loose leaf tea. Research shows that bagged tea can release harmful substances, especially if low-quality materials are used to produce the bags, experts said.

They also noted that scientists have discovered that some bags can release plastic particles into the drink.

As for dosage, experts recommend limiting consumption of bagged tea to two to three cups per day to minimize risks associated with potentially harmful additives or materials, the experts concluded.
