Improves Bone Health
Chai tea contains black tea that may be a key player in promoting the bone health of humans. Black tea is extracted from Camellia Sinensis, a plant that's also used to prepare oolong, green and white teas, and thought to help upgrade the mineral density of bones.
Mineral density is pivotal for safeguarding bones against diseases like osteoporosis, which usually affects elderly individuals. According to some research studies, people who drink black tea with chai flavorings may be less prone to a rheumatoid arthritis diagnosis.
