Nettle tea has several potential health benefits.
These benefits include reducing inflammation, lowering blood sugar and supporting a healthy urinary system, writes HealthLine.
People drink tea for many reasons, whether it's for the taste, the stimulant or sedative properties, and the health benefits. A popular herbal tea is nettle tea.
Although people have used it for centuries as an herbal remedy, modern research also supports many of the potential health benefits of nettle and nettle tea. But what are these health benefits? Here we have listed some of them.
It affects the health of the urinary tract
Nettles can help remove harmful bacteria from the urinary tract. This can help people who have urinary disorders, such as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). BPH causes an enlargement of the prostate gland in men. This can cause pain or other problems during urination.
According to a 2013 study, men with BPH who took nettle extract had fewer clinical symptoms than those who did not.
Nettles can also help support any medications you are taking for urinary tract infections or disorders. Talk to your doctor first about any possible interactions between herbal remedies and medications you take.
Nettle has historically been used to treat aches and sore muscles, especially those associated with arthritis. The Arthritis Foundation suggests that nettle tea may also reduce the inflammation and pain associated with osteoarthritis.
Nettle has shown some promising effects on blood glucose levels. It can help the pancreas make or release more insulin, the hormone that lowers blood sugar.
In a 2013 study, nettle leaf extract lowered blood glucose and A1C in a group of people with type 2 diabetes who were taking insulin as well as diabetes medications.
Nettles are high in plant chemicals called polyphenols
Nettles are high in plant chemicals called polyphenols. A review of research on polyphenols suggests that these powerful compounds may play a role in the prevention and management of chronic diseases related to inflammation, such as diabetes, obesity, cancer and heart disease.
In particular, polyphenols from nettle extract have shown exciting potential for the treatment of breast cancer and prostate cancer. Plants like nettle also contain powerful antioxidants, which are substances that protect the body from aging and cell damage.
