Of course, freshly brewed tea is more aromatic, tasty, and contains useful substances. The tonic properties of tea are manifested in the freshly brewed drink. Tea that is brewed beforehand loses its taste and aroma. Essential oils, which are responsible for taste, do not last long.
We can say with confidence that tea that has been standing for a long time does not exactly acquire useful properties. Most likely, on the contrary, it loses. If the brew has stood for more than twenty hours, then it will become a suitable breeding ground for bacteria and fungi. In this case, there is no question of benefit.
Tea, which has stood brewed for a long time, is compared by the Chinese to poison. Tea loses its beneficial properties, the vitamins it contains are destroyed.
The fact that tea will lose its beneficial qualities is not so bad. But if, as a result of interaction with oxygen, organic substances that are contained in tea are oxidized, then the body can be harmed. A thin film that has appeared on the surface of the drink can tell us about the oxidation process. It is better not to drink such tea!
This film contains a complex chemical formula. Since it is insoluble, entering the body, the film envelops the walls of the intestine and stomach. By doing this, it prevents the absorption of nutrients through the mucous membrane of the intestinal tract. Intestinal motility is also disturbed. And food masses accumulate in the gastrointestinal tract.
The liver can also be damaged. Due to the fact that the same film will cover the liver, it will not be able to perform its cleansing functions one hundred percent.
