Fruit salad: Alone, fruits are among the healthiest foods available, but combined with tea, they can become harmful.
Foods high in acidity: Steer clear of combining tea with foods high in acidity, such as citrus fruits like oranges and lemons.
Salted Snacks: It is widely believed that salty snacks, such as chips and salted almonds, are extremely unhealthy when consumed with tea.
Fried Foods: Gramme flour or besan should not be used to serve tea. The body has a harder time processing large, fatty meals at once.
Sugary foods: Tea can quickly raise blood sugar levels, so it is not a good idea to drink it with sweet treats like cakes and chocolates.
Dairy products: Products such as milk, cream, or curd reduce the antioxidant properties of tea. Milk tea should be avoided in favour of black or green tea.
Iron-rich foods: Oxalates found in tea may prevent some foods high in iron from being absorbed. Foods high in iron therefore do not pair well with tea.
