Health preservation is the core value of tea drinking. The Yellow Emperor’s Internal Canon of Traditional Chinese Medicine clearly states the principle of health preservation: “Therefore, a wise man’s health preservation method must conform to the seasons to adapt to the changes of the climate; Not too happy and angry, and can well adapt to the surrounding environment; Temper yin and yang, and balance hardness and softness. In this way, diseases and pathogens can not be attacked, thus prolonging life and preventing aging.“
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that “cold is hot and hot is cold”. That is, when the body syndrome differentiation belongs to cold disease, hot drugs should be used for treatment; When the body syndrome differentiation belongs to the heat disease, cold drugs should be used to treat it, and tea drinking is also the case. People’s physique is different from hot and dry, and tea leaves can also be cool and warm after different processing techniques.
Ripe Pu-erh tea is a kind of warm tea. It warms the stomach and lowers the three highs. It is very suitable for middle-aged and elderly people to drink. Raw Pu-erh tea, the tea is strong when it is new. With the continuous aging of time, the nature of the tea changes from cool to neutral to warm. During its continuous fermenting process, the nature of the tea becomes more and more mellow, which is more conducive to health care.
People’s physiques are different, and the properties of tea are different, so tea drinking is also particular. Drink tea healthily, drink tea scientifically. It varies from time to time and from person to person in order to achieve the effect of health preservation.
