Black Tea

Black tea is a drink that is common in many households, especially if those who live there do not drink coffee. The health benefits of black tea may not be as well-known as its cousin, green tea, but this hot drink is excellent for your health. Black tea is filled with antioxidants, may reduce inflammation and has been linked to lower LDL, or bad, cholesterol. It is also a healthy source of caffeine for those who do not care for the bitter taste of coffee. Like coffee, however, it is usually easy for a dentist to tell if someone drinks copious amounts of black tea. A slight pigmentation can develop on a person’s teeth if they drink black tea constantly or do not visit their dentist often enough. That pigmentation, however, can come in handy as a home remedy for greying hair. Black tea acts as a natural hair dye that can cover grey hairs. It is all natural and can be applied lightly or for heavier color. Simply brew a pot of black tea and soak the hair you want to darken in the tea. The longer you leave your hair soaking, the darker the color will be at the end.
