Can I drink dandelion tea instead of water?

Is the roasted barley tea I enjoy drinking these days similar to the roasted barley tea that can be consumed instead of water?

Having a cup in the morning, and another at lunch... It's a tea I've been enjoying recently.

I wondered if it would be okay to consume this frequently.

 

 

 

Dandelion tea is a beverage made by boiling the root stalks of the perennial plant Dandelion, which belongs to the lily family, in hot water.

 

Caffeine content,

A cup of dandelion tea contains about 30 to 70 mg of caffeine. This is relatively lower compared to coffee but higher than green tea.

A cup of coffee contains approximately 40 to 105 mg of caffeine.

 

Can I drink dandelion tea as a substitute for water?

Since it contains caffeine, it is not suitable as drinking water.

The recommended amount is about 2-3 cups per day, so instead of drinking it as a substitute for water, it is recommended to enjoy it as a post-meal tea.

 

I even gave it to the child to try... but it didn't work... 😥

 

 

Dandelion tea is said to contain a lot of potassium.

An appropriate amount of potassium helps to excrete sodium, but consuming too much can cause a deficiency of sodium.

Only up to three times a day!!
