Drinking Too Much Milk Tea Could Lead To Serious Illnesses, Expert Says
TOO MUCH MILK TEA – A medical expert recently said that you can get possible bad and serious illnesses just from drinking too much milk tea.
According to KAMI, in a recent episode from ABS-CBN’s medical show, Dr. Nemencio Nicodemus, an endocrinologist, said that excessive intake of milk tea would eventually make us more obese and, eventually, get diabetes.
“Pag nasobrahan tayo ng calories, saan ba pupunta ‘yon? Dito sa taba natin. Mas lalo tayo tataba at mas mataas ang tsansa na magka-Diabetes”
He further added that the drink has calories, which is unnecessary for our body. Albeit the two main components has positive effects, people also intake a lot of sugar, which is one of the factors to cause diabetes.
Based on the report, a large sized serving of milk tea has about 11 to 20 teaspoons of sugar or 400 caloriez. Nicodemus further sited what the World Health Organization said that our body needs only 6 teaspoons of sugar, which in this case, the milk tea is way past beyond the normal.
“On the average, may 5 at kalahating asukal ang nilalagay sa isang ganitong lalagyan ng milk tea.”
“Ang sabi ng World Health Organization dapat hanggang 6 na kutsarita lang ng asukal ang dapat nating nako-consume maghapon na ‘yon”
He added that it is even worse if you add creamer, nata de coco, and more to compliment the tea, assuming that they contain 3 teaspoons each.
“Ang problema pag dinagdagan mo pa ng ibang ingredients. Sabi nila ‘yong ibang tea daw ‘pag dating sa gatas naman, 3 teaspoons of sugar ang laman niyan”
“Kapag nilagyan mo pa ng iba pa, kunwari nata de coco, lagyan pa natin ng creamer at iba pa. Dagdag pa ‘yan na 3 kutsarita ulit bawat isa”
