Question 1

Accepted Answer

Question 2

is it ok to drink milk tea daily?

Accepted Answer

No. Too much sugar.: The human body is not meant to eat sugar except in occasional small quantities. Sugar does bad things to the body. It is best to order the tea with no added sugar. Then calories would come from the flavoring (has some sugar), the extras like boba pearls, and the "milk" which is either a type of non-dairy creamer or is real milk. Healthy people might have one drink a week, with no added sugar.

Question 3

Accepted Answer

Water: Most people do not realize that tea is a diuretic which makes the body lose water.  But it is a stimulant also.  So to stay awake, try tea.  To stay hydrated, drink water.

Question 4

what is the best "detox" tea drink?

Accepted Answer

No such thing: Detox is such an appealing concept... It seems logical we can take a tea or herb or medical preparation and sweat or bathroom out all the carcinogens, toxins, bad food and bad habits we are exposed to.
