Ice Tea: just a fad or a genuine fix to the problem?

Author Wildwater, 5 years ago | 2 min read | 150

Just a quick google search will tell you that the concept of Ice Tea has been going on since the late 1800s. So obviously there is something there. But what exactly is Ice Tea good for? Apart from being an ice cold version of tea and kind of making you feel refreshed after drinking it, there must be something that really defines ice tea for what it is. Or is it all just a placebo effect? The after-effects of a super cool brain freeze that might be just lasting too long? Well, let’s dig in and find out just exactly how cool ice tea is.

At the risk of stating the obvious, first of all, it helps you keep hydrated. In fact, Harvard Public School of health lists it as the second-best source of hydration of all, of course, after water.

As a rich source of manganese, it helps wounds heal faster and strengthens your bones. But the even greater advantage here is that if you are trying to lose weight, use ice tea to rev up your metabolism. Again, manganese is known to help in the digestion and utilisation of fat and also fires up the metabolism.

Finally, the two in one combo benefit of drinking ice tea is that it helps reduce stress levels and also keeps the heart healthy. Both of those things anyone of us could use any given day.

But what about making it? Surely Ice Tea is not as easily available as some of the “lesser” alternatives. Well, that’s exactly where Wild Vitamin water comes in! Primarily specialising in creating flavoured vitamin drinks that work as immunity chargers, they also offer two variants of ice tea, called black ice tea and green ice tea. With the premium minimalist packaging, it is extremely easy to carry your ice tea benefits with you wherever you go!
