Green tea is proven to uplift your mood and help beat the winter blues. The release of dopamine and serotonin on consuming the tea makes you feel refreshed
There’s nothing like curling up on the couch, wrapped in a comforter, watching your favourite movie and enjoying a warm cup of your favorite beverage on a chilly winter day. It doesn’t only warm your body, but it also provides much-needed comfort during the cold season.
What’s better than green tea on a chilly day. A hot cup of green tea is more than just warmth in a cup. Green tea is proven to uplift your mood and help beat the winter blues. The release of dopamine and serotonin on consuming the tea makes you feel refreshed. The cold weather also makes it challenging to move around or squeeze a workout in your routine.
“Snuggled up in bed, one just ends up gaining weight. Thus, to keep that fat away, drinking green tea can help boost your metabolism and burn extra calories. If winter makes us lazy, it is also the season of cold, cough and flu, impacting our immunity. A cup of green tea helps soothe you and increases your immunity,” says Dolly Kumar, Founder and Director, Cosmic Nutracos (Gaia).
