00:00In today's episode of Nazariyan Ki Khao Gali, we will take a sneak peek at a thing that
00:16can't be explained with words.
00:30Jai Dhalal got his mercy or not, but tea is always served.
00:40Tea and Love
00:41But do you know that love is also a gift from the British?
00:47How?
00:48We will find out.
00:49And we will also find out how tea is actually saving your life.
00:53So we brought tea.
00:54And let's have a tea party.
00:55While working, we drink half a cup of tea when we get tired.
00:58Just like there are tea breaks in our country, there are tea parties in Western countries
01:05too.
01:07Tea is called old school.
01:08But old is gold.
01:09Why?
01:10Because research says that countries that take tea breaks have less risk of cancer and
01:14heart disease.
01:15Animal studies suggest that green tea polyphenols can help maintain bone density and strength.
01:19Green tea is also said to help women in bone formation even after menopause.
01:24When it comes to reducing the risk of cancer, there is some evidence that high green tea
01:30or black tea consumption is linked to lower cancer rates.
01:34But the results of human studies are mixed.
01:37Therefore, it is necessary to clarify these benefits.
01:41Green tea and caffeine can also help in weight management.
01:46Because they increase energy expenditure and fat burning.
01:50Studies show that green tea can reduce energy usage by 4-5%.
01:55And fat oxidation can also be reduced by 4-5%.
01:58These are the benefits of green tea.
02:00Green tea gives energy boost.
02:02Green tea is also known as green tea powder.
02:05Green tea can increase energy use by 4-5%
02:09and fat oxidation by 10-16%
02:13With time, this energy boost can lead to significant weight loss
02:17Moreover, black tea can reduce blood pressure
02:21and improve blood vessel function
02:25That's why whenever we used to have cold or fever,
02:29our grandma used to tell us to drink a cup of tea
02:33This is all about green tea or black tea
02:37In India, masala tea or ginger tea is the most popular
02:51It is said that ginger increases immunity from turmeric addition
02:55Tea benefits are due to antioxidant polyphenols
02:59That's why if you drink 2% milk tea,
03:03these benefits can be maintained
03:07Herbal teas like chamomile and peppermint are not available
03:11because herbal tea is not tea
03:15Overall, adding green tea or black tea to your daily routine
03:19can bring many health benefits
03:23In China's 6th century BC books, tea is mentioned as a medicine
03:27By the way, the story of the origin of tea is also very interesting
03:31So, let's listen to the stories of tea
03:43The most popular story is of China
03:47It is said that one day when Emperor Sheng Nang was boiling water,
03:51some leaves fell into the water by mistake
03:55This is how tea was accidentally discovered
04:03It is also said that the founder of Zen Buddhism, Daruma,
04:07fell asleep while meditating
04:11As soon as he woke up, he cut his eyes
04:15Where his eyes fell, a tea plant grew
04:19Because tea has caffeine, which makes you sleepy
04:23So, he drank tea. This is how this story was made
04:27During the Tang Dynasty, tea was so valuable that it was used as a currency
04:31Tea bricks were made and traded for these items
04:35And in remote areas, taxes were also paid from these tea bricks
04:39This not only paid taxes, but taxes were also imposed on it
04:43This is why the Boston Tea Party incident happened
04:47When Britain imposed heavy taxes on tea
04:51And the entire shipment of tea, which was of 342 crates,
04:55was put in Boston Harbor
04:57This act helped start the American Revolution
05:01A simple beverage had now become a symbol of rebellion, freedom and change
05:05But the real impact of tea came when the British fell in love with it
05:09When a British emperor married a Portuguese princess,
05:13who liked tea very much,
05:15then the whole kingdom became crazy about it
05:19The UK was completely dependent on China for tea
05:23But China did not take anything from Britain
05:27A lot of money was being spent on tea
05:29To earn money, the British sold opium to China
05:33When China opposed it, the war broke out
05:37It was called the Opium War
05:39In my opinion, this was the birth of tea
05:41The British had another fear
05:43What would happen if China permanently shut down its supply?
05:47So they corrupted India
05:49Large-scale tea cultivation began in India
05:53First, China's plants died
05:55But they could not live in this heat
05:57Then the Indian variety of Assam leaves were found
05:59which are still in our cups
06:03Ironically, India became the global powerhouse of tea
06:07But at that time, Indians did not drink tea
06:11Until the 1950s, tea was popular only among Anglo-Indians
06:15Then the Indian Tea Board launched a huge marketing campaign
06:19From railway stations to cinema halls, tea was sold
06:23And since then, tea has become the heartbeat of the country
06:25But it is also true that drinking too much tea can be harmful
06:29How are you feeling?
06:31I am fine, doctor
06:33Sometimes I cut my teeth, sometimes I drink a lot of yoghurt
06:40Drinking too much milk or sugar tea
06:42can lead to digestive problems, acidity, diabetes, and even sleep issues
06:48In the last 15 years, India's tea production has increased by 39%
06:52The tea industry, which is worth around Rs 20,000 crores
06:5626% of it comes from West Bengal
06:59But 16 tea gardens in West Bengal are closed
07:03Because the prices in the domestic market are depressed
07:06And exports are sluggish
07:08India produces more than 80% of the world's tea
07:11But according to the tea board survey
07:13Domestic consumption is still very low compared to other countries
07:18When will everything be fine in the tea industry?
07:20We don't know that
07:22But we do know that we also want to keep our friendship with you
07:26That's why we will keep making such spicy videos
