Summer weather is hot and it is easy to experience headaches and dry throat. At this time, mulberry leaves have a delicious taste and can be brewed into tea, which is especially fragrant and can have a therapeutic and nourishing effect.
1. Clearing the lungs and moisturizing dryness
Mulberry leaves have a bitter and cold taste, and they have the effects of dispersing wind-heat, clearing the lungs, and moisturizing dryness. It is rare for a herb to have both clearing and moisturizing effects. You can use 30 grams of dried mulberry leaves to make tea, once a day. You can also boil them with pear skin and almond to make a soup and drink it as tea. This can prevent and treat colds while also promoting health.
2. Removing spots and beautifying the skin
Mulberry leaves are rich in flavonoids, phenols, amino acids, organic acids, carotenoids, vitamins, and various essential trace elements for the human body. These substances are beneficial for improving and regulating the metabolism of skin tissues, especially in inhibiting the occurrence and development of pigmentation. Drinking mulberry leaf tea regularly can reduce the accumulation of lipofuscin (age spots) in the skin or internal organs.
3. Reducing lipid and losing weight
Patients with hyperlipidemia have high blood viscosity, and blood flow is not smooth in the capillaries. Mulberry leaves contain flavonoids that strengthen capillaries and reduce blood viscosity. This can help with weight loss, improve hyperlipidemia, and prevent myocardial infarction and cerebral thrombosis.
