Tea Can Combat Radiation Damage
Tea Can Combat Radiation Damage
Those who understand tea properties often hold a cup of tea while watching TV, sipping intermittently—this combines enjoyment with scientific rationale. When the TV is turned on, the screen emits radiation, albeit in small amounts, which can harm the human body. Prolonged exposure or close proximity may impair hematopoietic function. Tea possesses strong anti-radiation properties. Scientific experiments confirm that tea contains substances that protect the body’s hematopoietic system. Clinical observations show that individuals engaged in radioactive work or undergoing radiotherapy for tumors often have white blood cell counts below 4,000 units. After consistently drinking tea for one month, their white blood cell count significantly increases. For ordinary people, consuming 4–5 cups of plain tea daily can eliminate the harmful effects of TV radiation.
Some medical institutions use tea extracts containing "7369" components to treat radiation-induced leukopenia, showing significant effects with an effective rate of 81.4%, a marked improvement rate of 50.1%, and a non-effective rate of only 18.6%. This clearly demonstrates tea’s role in preventing radiation damage, enhancing the body’s resistance to radiation, and promoting overall health.
Watching TV also affects vision. Tests show that viewing TV continuously for 4–5 hours temporarily reduces visual acuity by 30%. In dim lighting, vision relies on rod cells in the retina. Frequent viewing in low light depletes retinal rhodopsin, weakening eyesight. Tea is rich in vitamin A, a key nutrient required by the retina. Drinking tea while watching TV allows the body to absorb vitamin A promptly, replenishing rhodopsin. Thus, medical professionals believe that drinking tea while watching TV both mitigates radiation harm and protects vision.
