We Pakistanis have long been sipping on our chai for all the right reasons, but did you think immunity boost was one of them?

While some brews may not provide as many health benefits as others, there's strong reason to believe herbal tea may have a strong impact on our general wellbeing.

Put a kettle on as we share why we think drinking herbal tea is healthy:

1. It helps build a strong immune system

A topper on our list for obvious reasons, there's ample of research to prove that the antibacterial and anti-flammatory properties in stress-relieving teas can really tune up immune cells to ward off viruses.

2. It helps reduce stress

Herbal teas do not contain caffeine which is why they’re known for their soothing properties.

Some ingredients like basil and peppermint can prove to be effective relaxants.

3. Herbal teas may soothe the digestive system

Some ingredients in herbal teas, like ginger and chamomile, may have muscle-relaxing effects that encourage bowel movement.

4. It lowers the risk of a heart stroke

Herbal tea is good for the heart.

In fact, study has shown that regular tea drinking helps lower arterial stiffness in the heart which is usually linked to cardiovascular diseases.

5. It helps boost metabolism

If you're trying to shed some pounds, a cup or two of herbal tea might come in handy.

Studies have shown that drinking tea, especially herbal tea, helps detoxify the body and improves weight loss.
