Consuming tea or coffee on an empty stomach may lead to an increase in acidity, according to health advice originating from Delhi.
Health experts are advising residents of Delhi against consuming tea or coffee first thing in the morning on an empty stomach. This habit is reportedly linked to an increased risk of acidity.
The consumption of beverages like tea and coffee, particularly when taken without food, can stimulate the production of stomach acid. This heightened acidity can lead to discomfort and other digestive issues for many individuals.
For those prone to or experiencing acidity, it is recommended to have a light meal or snack before consuming these popular morning drinks to mitigate potential adverse effects.
