Minerals Contained in Tea
THE DAYS OF THE SPEEDY CLIPPER SHIPS BROUGHT A PRODUCT
TO EUROPE WHICH WAS A RICH SOURCE OF TWO
PRIMARY AND ESSENTIAL MINERALS.
TEA contains two minerals vital to the human
body:
MANGANESE: Manganese is needed by our bodies to promote bone
growth and several other developments which take place in our
bodies. Among other sources, tea is one of the richest food
products containing this mineral. 5-6 cups of tea daily
provides us with as much as 45-50% of our daily requirement
(based on an adult intake of 2000 calories).
POTASSIUM: Potassium is essential to humans in that it assists in
maintaining a normal heart beat. Potassium also assists
nerves and muscles to function. Further, it regulates fluid
levels or balance inside of each cell. A deficiency of
potassium can lead to irregular heart beat and, generally, body
fatigue. 5-6 cups of tea daily can provide as much as
75% of our daily requirements (based on an adult intake of
2000 calories).
Tea also contains trace elements of other minerals which are in
the ground (of the growing region in which the tea was harvested)
and which have been deposited in the leaves via the systemic
system.
