How to Make Hand Sanitiser Using WHO-Recommended Handrub Formulations

How to Make Hand Sanitizers Based on WHO Recommended Hand Rub Formula

The recent COVID-19 (Coronavirus) Pandemic,  has caused many people to be running to the local store to stock up  hand sanitizers. This has caused the cost of the sanitizers and materials to skyrocket and many local stores have run out of them. But we don’t need to be worry if you can not find hand sanitizers at your local stores as it is easy to make them at home by yourself. With just three ingredients, you can prepare hand rub formulations that meet  the need of the moment. But for any reason, you can not lay hands on the chemical requirements, you could contact us for guidelines on how to obtain them or order our HETAVED Hand Sanitizers for your use or marketing at both retail or wholesale needs.

How to Make Hand Sanitiser

Let’s first see the basic components of an alcohol-based Hand Sanitizer.

• Alcohol
• Humectant/Emollient
• Disinfectant

Alcohol

The major component of alcohol based formulation is, of course, alcohol. For this, the most commonly used is either 96% Ethanol or 99.8% Isopropyl alcohol. Of these, the easily available one is Isopropyl alcohol, otherwise known as Rubbing Alcohol. Please don’t use other types of alcohol (Methanol, Butanol, or others) since they are toxic and could be very harmful to the human body especially skin and eyes..

Humectant/Emollient

Humectants are moisturizers that will help to prevent the drying of the skin. For WHO formulation- The World Health Organization recommends the one that is miscible in water and alcohol, is non-toxic, or a hypoallergenic. A popular humectant that meets all these requirements is 98% Glycerol. You can also use other humectants such as Aloe Vera Gel.

Disinfectant
An effective disinfectant is added to this formulation to eliminate contaminating spores. An efficient choice is Hydrogen Peroxide. Its also a mild antiseptic as well as an oxidizer. Please keep in mind that the concentration of Hydrogen Peroxide should not exceed the recommended amount.

OTHER REQUIREMENTS:
--You could also enhance the quality with Acetone, colorant and fragrance in drop and according to taste.
--Distilled Water or Cooled Boiled Water (approximately 3/4 of a US cup+ 1 US Table Spoon)


 MATERIALS AND METHODS

1- Industrial or Improvised Mixer
2- Airtight Containers for storing and packaging
3- Giant Stirrer
4- Hand Gloves and Face Mask especially to cover the eyes and nostrils

Hand Sanitiser Using WHO-Recommended Handrub Formulations

The following recipe is based on the guidelines for local production of WHO-recommended hand rub formulations.

To make 1 L (1000 ml) Isopropyl alcohol-based hand sanitizer, you will need:

• 99.8% Isopropyl Alcohol – 751.5 ml (approximately 3 US Cups and 3.5 US Table Spoons)
• 3% Hydrogen Peroxide – 41.7 ml (approximately 2 US Table Spoons and 2.5 US Tea Spoons)
• 98% Glycerol – 14.5 ml (approximately 1 Table Spoon, 1 tbsp = 14.7868 ml)
• 192.3 ml Distilled Water or Cooled Boiled Water (approximately 3/4 of a US cup+ 1 US Table Spoon)

To make 1 L (1000 ml) Ethanol-based hand sanitizer, you will need:

• 96% Ethanol – 833.3 ml (approximately 3.5 US Cups and 1 US Tea Spoons)
• 3% Hydrogen peroxide – 41.7 ml (approximately 2 US Table Spoons and 2.5 US Tea Spoons)
• 98% Glycerol – 14.5 ml (approximately 1 Table Spoon, 1 tbsp = 14.7868 ml)
• 111 ml Sterile distilled or boiled cold water

Steps:

1. Mix all ingredients in a bowl thoroughly using a spoon or pour all ingredients into a glass or plastic bottle and mix by gently shaking the bottle.
2. Close the bottle.
3. Keep the bottles closed for 72 hours before use. This allows time for Hydrogen Peroxide to destroy any spores present in the alcohol or the bottles used.

If you are making large quantities at one go, store in smaller containers of around 100 ml, so that the alcohol does not evaporate much with each time you use.

Some things to keep in mind:

• Final concentrations:
  • Isopropyl Alcohol 75% (v/v) for Isopropyl based hand sanitizer and Ethanol 80% (v/v) for Ethanol-based hand sanitizer – (Please note that WHO based formula has a higher alcohol concentration).
  • Glycerol 1.45% (v/v)
  • Hydrogen peroxide 0.125% (v/v)
• Do keep in mind that glycerol is very viscous. While measuring glycerol, the measuring cup should be rinsed with distilled or boiled and cooled water to be added and then emptied into the bottle.
• Instead of glycerol, you can use aloe vera gel. Other humectants or emollients may be used for skin care, provided that they are mixable in water and alcohol, non-toxic, and hypoallergenic.
• Since alcohols are highly flammable, store the ingredients and final formulation away from heat sources. Keep in mind that the flash points of isopropyl alcohol 75% (v/v) are 17.5°C and 19°C, respectively.
• You may add essential oils that  you are not allergic to.

How to Use Hand Sanitizer

It’s important to mention that hand sanitizers are not the best method to prevent infection especially when your hands are dirty. The most effective method is to wash your hands thoroughly with soap for at least 20 seconds. To use hand sanitizer for the purpose of disinfecting from germs, rub hand sanitiser (just like how you wash your hands ) over all the surfaces of your hands and fingers until your hands are dry. This should take around 20 seconds.

Steps:

1. Apply a palmful of the product in a cupped hand.
2. Cover all surfaces of your hand
3. Rub hands palm to palm
4. Right palm over left dorsum with interlaced fingers and vice versa
5. Palm to palm with fingers interlaced
6. Backs of fingers to opposing palms with fingers interlocked
7. Rotational rubbing of left thumb clasped in right palm and vice versa
8. Rotational rubbing, backwards and forwards with clasped fingers of right hand in left palm and vice versa
9. Once dry, your hands are safe
10. The whole process should take 20 to 30 seconds

Lastly, If you are buying hand sanitizer for the sake of protection from coronavirus disease, make sure that it contains at least 60% alcohol. Many hand sanitizers available in the shops are alcohol-free with ingredients like benzalkonium chloride.

Coronavirus: Scientists reveal reduction in global air pollution and nitrogen dioxide levels

Since the Coronavirus outbreak, scientists have reported a decrease in air pollution and nitrogen dioxide levels around the world.
 
The World Health Organisation recently declared coronavirus a pandemic. At the same time, scientists from around the world have revealed a decline in air pollution and nitrogen dioxide levels.
At the beginning of March, NASA revealed that pollution levels in China, where the outbreak started, had dramatically reduced. NASA's pollution monitoring satellites detected significant decreases in nitrogen dioxide (NO2). In addition to this, analysis by Carbon Brief revealed the coronavirus has temporarily reduced China’s CO2 emissions by a quarter.
Italy, where cases have dramatically increased and is now the country with the largest number of cases outside of China, has also experienced a decline in air pollution.
New data from the European Space Agency found a reduction in nitrogen dioxide emissions. The ESA say this reduction is particularly visible in northern Italy, which coincides with its nationwide lockdown.
 
Claus Zehner, ESA’s Copernicus Sentinel-5P mission manager, said: “The decline in nitrogen dioxide emissions over the Po Valley in northern Italy is particularly evident.”
“Although there could be slight variations in the data due to cloud cover and changing weather, we are very confident that the reduction in emissions that we can see, coincides with the lockdown in Italy causing less traffic and industrial activities.”
Josef Aschbacher, ESA’s Director of Earth Observation Programmes, said: “Copernicus Sentinel-5P Tropomi is the most accurate instrument today that measures air pollution from space. These measurements, globally available thanks to the free and open data policy, provide crucial information for citizens and decision makers."
In the United States, pollution levels have also declined. Researchers told the BBC that New York has seen a 50% reduction in carbon monoxide emissions, compared to last year. Traffic levels are estimated to be down by 35 percent and they report a ‘solid drop’ in methane levels.
As some of the world comes to a standstill, there is no doubt that we will see a further decline in global emissions. As uncertainity grows around the longevity of the virus, no one knows just how much of an impact on pollution levels it could have.

DIGITAL WORKS VS PHYSICAL PRODUCTS MARKETING- THE SFI SIMPLIFIED EXAMPLE

Digital vs. Physical. Which is a better product to try and sell?

A lot people still focus on having an online store selling physical items. Nothing wrong with that, but those same people discount digital products. Why is that?

The SFI program you are about to be introduced to right now is one of the best digital products, affiliates and working platform that is comparable to none.

Now , just think about it,

Your social media pages are digital.

The apps you have on your phone are digital.

The online games you play are digital.

Your email is digital.

Google, Facebook, Apple and many others make billions of dollars in revenue from digital products.

Digital products are not restricted by shipping, delivery times, or even specific countries for the most part. They are not even most of the time affected with global diseases out breat like the current CORONAVIRUS.

In SFI for instance,
The Astro Auctions are digital.

Eager Zebra games are digital.

TCredits are digital.

We are in a digital world, and there is nothing wrong with that.

You can have an entirely digital business right now with the SFI  Business Model today.

1. Purchase an AD of 125 TCredits on the first of every month.
2. Spend 4 TCredits every day – 1 on an Eager Zebra game, and 3 in 3 different Astro Auctions.
3. Advertise to recruit PSA’s -Personal Sponsor Affiliates-to your team and share the plan!

It is that simple. What are the benefits?

You earn Rewardical Tokens for the TCredits that you spend.
You earn Direct Commissions for the referrals you get to join your team.
You earn referral Rewardical Tokens for the activities of your PSA's & CSA's.

You get free CSA's -Co-Sponsors Affiliates for being an EA and being BCQ qualified, and more if you have your Auto Delivery setup for the first of the month. (Executive Speedster badge).

You earn VP-Visa Points with your daily actions, and are qualified to get profit sharing from the Executive Pool. And you will probably get VP from bidding in the auctions.

Making a BTL will earn you more CSA's, more profit sharing from 2 generations and CSA's, more TCredits, more Rewardical Tokens, Second Home CSA's.

All of the above, and probably more, just for running a very simple and basic online digital based business; and you can even run it from your tablet or smartphone.

Anywhere you have an internet connection. Keep your current job and run this  SFI as part time. It is not that difficult.

But people will come up with all kinds of reasons why this won't work. Except that, it does work, because that is what I do.

Digital selling is a real product and a real business. It is time you embrace that fact, and maybe even earn some money yourself from it.

WHO GLOBAL ALERT AND RECOMMENDATION FOR INT'L TRAVEL DURING THIS COVID-19 OUTBREAK

Updated WHO recommendations for international traffic in relation to COVID-19 outbreak

29 February 2020
This document provides updated recommendations for international traffic in relation to the COVID-19 outbreak, in light of the rapidly evolving situation. It supersedes the advice published on 27 January 2020.
On 30 January 2020, the Director-General of the World Health Organization, following the advice of the Emergency Committee convened under the International Health Regulations (2005), declared the current outbreak of COIVD-19 a public health emergency of international concern and issued Temporary Recommendations. The Committee asked the Director-General to provide further advice on these matters and, if necessary, to make new case-by-case recommendations, in view of this rapidly evolving situation.

Affected areas

“Affected areas” are considered those countries, provinces, territories or cities experiencing ongoing transmission of COVID-19, in contrast to areas reporting only imported cases. As of 27 February 2020, although China, particularly the Province of Hubei, has experienced sustained local transmission and has reported by far the largest number of confirmed cases since the beginning of the outbreak, lately the situation in China showed a significant decrease in cases. At the same time, an increasing number of countries, other than China, have reported cases, including through local transmission of COVID-19. As the epidemic evolves, it will be expected that many areas may detect imported cases and local transmission of COVID-19. WHO is publishing daily situation reports on the evolution of the outbreak.
The outbreaks reported so far have occurred primarily within clusters of cases exposed through close-contacts, within families or special gathering events. COVID-19 is primarily transmitted through droplets from, and close contact with, infected individuals. Control measures that focus on prevention, particularly through regular hand washing and cough hygiene, and on active surveillance for the early detection and isolation of cases, the rapid identification and close monitoring of persons in contacts with cases, and the rapid access to clinical care, particularly for severe cases, are effective to contain most outbreaks of COVID-19.

Recommendations for international trafic

WHO continues to advise against the application of travel or trade restrictions to countries experiencing COVID-19 outbreaks.
In general, evidence shows that restricting the movement of people and goods during public health emergencies is ineffective in most situations and may divert resources from other interventions. Furthermore, restrictions may interrupt needed aid and technical support, may disrupt businesses, and may have negative social and economic effects on the affected countries. However, in certain circumstances, measures that restrict the movement of people may prove temporarily useful, such as in settings with few international connections and limited response capacities.
Travel measures that significantly interfere with international traffic may only be justified at the beginning of an outbreak, as they may allow countries to gain time, even if only a few days, to rapidly implement effective preparedness measures. Such restrictions must be based on a careful risk assessment, be proportionate to the public health risk, be short in duration, and be reconsidered regularly as the situation evolves.
Travel bans to affected areas or denial of entry to passengers coming from affected areas are usually not effective in preventing the importation of cases but may have a significant economic and social impact. Since WHO declaration of a public health emergency of international concern in relation to COVID-19, and as of 27 February, 38 countries have reported to WHO additional health measures that significantly interfere with international traffic in relation to travel to and from China or other countries, ranging from denial of entry of passengers, visa restrictions or quarantine for returning travellers. Several countries that denied entry of travellers or who have suspended the flights to and from China or other affected countries, are now reporting cases of COVID-19.
Temperature screening alone, at exit or entry, is not an effective way to stop international spread, since infected individuals may be in incubation period, may not express apparent symptoms early on in the course of the disease, or may dissimulate fever through the use of antipyretics; in addition, such measures require substantial investments for what may bear little benefits. It is more effective to provide prevention recommendation messages to travellers and to collect health declarations at arrival, with travellers’ contact details, to allow for a proper risk assessment and a possible contact tracing of incoming travellers.

Recommendations for international travellers

It is prudent for travellers who are sick to delay or avoid travel to affected areas, in particular for elderly travellers and people with chronic diseases or underlying health conditions.
General recommendations for personal hygiene, cough etiquette and keeping a distance of at least one metre from persons showing symptoms remain particularly important for all travellers. These include:

• Perform hand hygiene frequently, particularly after contact with respiratory secretions. Hand hygiene includes either cleaning hands with soap and water or with an alcohol-based hand rub. Alcohol-based hand rubs are preferred if hands are not visibly soiled; wash hands with soap and water when they are visibly soiled;
• Cover your nose and mouth with a flexed elbow or paper tissue when coughing or sneezing and disposing immediately of the tissue and performing hand hygiene;
• Refrain from touching mouth and nose;
• A medical mask is not required if exhibiting no symptoms, as there is no evidence that wearing a mask – of any type – protects non-sick persons. However, in some cultures, masks may be commonly worn. If masks are to be worn, it is critical to follow best practices on how to wear, remove and dispose of them and on hand hygiene after removal (see Advice on the use of masks)

As for any travel, travellers are also advised to follow proper food hygiene practices, including the five keys for food safety, as well as recommendations to reduce the risk of transmission of emerging pathogens from animals to human in live markets.
Travellers returning from affected areas should self-monitor for symptoms for 14 days and follow national protocols of receiving countries. Some countries may require returning travellers to enter quarantine. If symptoms occur, such as fever, or cough or difficulty breathing, travellers are advised to contact local health care providers, preferably by phone, and inform them of their symptoms and their travel history. For travellers identified at points of entry, it is recommended to follow WHO advice for the management of travellers at points of entry. Guidance on treatment of sick passengers on board of airplanes is available on ICAO and IATA websites. Key considerations for planning of large mass gathering events are also available on WHO’s website. Operational considerations for managing COVID-19 cases on board of ships has also been published.
For countries which decide to repatriate nationals from affected areas, they should consider the following to avoid further spread of COVID-19: exit screening shortly before flight; risk communication to travellers and crew; infection control supplies for voyage; crew preparedness for possibility of sick passenger in flight; entry screening on arrival and close follow-up for 14 days after arrival. (WHO recommendations to reduce risk of transmission of emerging pathogens from animals to humans in live animal markets)

General recommendations to all countries

Countries should intensify surveillance for unusual outbreaks of influenza-like illness and severe pneumonia and monitor carefully the evolution of COVID-19 outbreaks, reinforcing epidemiological surveillance. Countries should continue to enhance awareness through effective risk communication concerning COVID-19 to the general public, health professionals, and policy makers, and to avoid actions that promote stigma or discrimination. Countries should share with WHO all relevant information needed to assess and manage COVID-19 in a timely manner, as required by the International Health Regulations (2005).
Countries are reminded of the purpose of the International Health Regulations to prevent, protect against, control and provide a public health response to the international spread of disease in ways that are commensurate with and restricted to public health risks, and which avoid unnecessary interference with international traffic and trade. Countries implementing additional health measures which significantly interfere with international traffic are required to provide to WHO, within 48 hours of implementation, the public health rationale and relevant scientific information for the measures implemented. WHO shall share this information with other States Parties. Significant interference generally means refusal of entry or departure of international travellers, baggage, cargo, containers, conveyances, goods, and the like, or their delay, for more than 24 hours.
WHO continues to engage with its Member States, as well as with international organizations and industries, to enable implementation of travel-related health measures that are commensurate with the public health risks, are effective and are implemented in ways which avoid unnecessary restrictions of international traffic during the COVID-19 outbreak.

GLOBAL LATEST ALERT ON CORONAVIRUS-

UN releases US$15 million to help vulnerable countries battle the spread of the coronavirus

1 March 2020

News release

UN Humanitarian Chief Mark Lowcock today released US$15 million from the Central Emergency Response Fund (CERF) to help fund global efforts to contain the COVID-19 virus.
The announcement came as the World Health Organization (WHO) upgraded the global risk of the coronavirus outbreak to "very high" – its top level of risk assessment. The WHO has said there is still a chance of containing the virus if its chain of transmission is broken.
The sudden increases of cases in Italy, the Islamic Republic of Iran and the Republic of Korea are deeply concerning. There are now cases linked to Iran in Bahrain, Iraq, Kuwait and Oman, along with cases linked to Italy in Algeria, Austria, Croatia, Germany, Spain and Switzerland.
The UN funding has been released to the WHO and the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF). It will fund essential activities including monitoring the spread of the virus, investigating cases, and the operation of national laboratories.
The WHO has called for US$675 million to fund the fight against coronavirus. There is a window of opportunity to contain the spread of the virus if countries take robust measures to detect cases early, isolate and care for patients, and trace contacts.
Emergency Relief Coordinator and Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs, Mark Lowcock said: “We do not yet see evidence that the virus is spreading freely. As long as that’s the case, we still have a chance of containing it.
“But swift and robust action must be taken to detect cases early, isolate and care for patients, and trace contacts. We must act now to stop this virus from putting more lives at risk.
“This grant from the UN’s Emergency Fund will help countries with fragile health systems boost their detection and response operations. It has the potential to save the lives of millions of vulnerable people.”
This is a critical juncture in the outbreak. The focus is on containing COVID-19 by strengthening surveillance, conducting thorough outbreak investigations to identify contacts and applying appropriate measures to prevent further spread.
Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, WHO Director-General, said: “The potential spread of the virus to countries with weaker health systems is one of our biggest concerns. These funds will help support these countries get ready for detecting and isolating cases, protecting their health workers, and treating patients with dignity and appropriate care. This will help us save lives and push back the virus”
UNICEF is leading on preventative actions in communities across the affected countries with risk communication, providing hygiene and medical kits to schools and health clinics and monitoring the impact of the outbreak to support continuity of care, education and social services.
“At this pivotal moment, every effort must be made to push back against the outbreak,” said UNICEF Executive Director Henrietta Fore. “These crucial funds will support our global efforts to bolster weaker health systems and inform children, pregnant women and families about how to protect themselves.”
Since it was launched in 2006, CERF has provided more than $6 billion to over 100 countries and helped hundreds of millions of people.

UNITED NATIONS, New York, 17 February 2020 — As part of its Making Global Goals Local Business campaign, each year the UN Global Compact recognizes a class of SDG Pioneers — business leaders, who are using business as a force for good to advance the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The SDG Pioneers play an important role in drawing attention to the SDGs and how responsible businesses can contribute to their achievement.
As part of the  Global Compact Local Networks spanning all continents will launch a national search for professionals who are committed to achieving the Global Goals on 17 February 2020
will culminate in to the selection of global SDG Pioneers who will be recognized during the UN General Assembly high-level week in New York in September 2020. The worldwide search for SDG Pioneers among companies participating in the UN Global Compact will build on national searches by 23 Global Compact Local Networks earlier this year, and each winner of a national round will automatically compete in the global round along with other candidates.

AFRICA FOOD PRIZE-NOMINATIONS NOW OPENS

Africa Food Prize 2020 Nominations Now Open – Nominate Your Candidate

The Africa Food Prize 2020 committee is inviting nominations for individuals or institutions who are delivering improved food security; catalyzing innovation and transformative change in Africa’s agriculture sector. Do not miss out on the opportunity to bring that leading farmer to the limelight.

  

About The Africa Food Prize

The Africa Food Prize is a preeminent award that recognizes outstanding individuals or institutions leading the effort to change the reality of farming in Africa. It recognises an individual whose farming story has changed from the struggle to survive to a business that thrives. It celebrates Africans who are taking control of Africa’s agriculture agenda.

Besides that, it also puts a spotlight on bold initiatives and technical innovations that can be replicated across the continent to create a new era of food security and economic opportunity for all Africans.
It began in 2005 as Yara Prize, organised by Yara International ASA in Norway. Then, it began as a way to honor achievements in African agriculture. Next, in 2016, Yara Prize was renamed the Africa Food Prize in a bit to give it a distinctive African identity and ownership.
Today, it awards a total price of $100,000, a diploma and a trophy. More than one person can receive the award, but not more than two can be a winner. If shared, each winner will receive equal prize money ($100,000 divided into two).
Hurry up to nominate here.

THE GREAT HEALTH BENEFITS OF DRINKING BLACK TEA REGULARLY

10 Evidence-Based Health Benefits of Taking Black Tea

Aside from water, black tea is one of the most consumed beverages in the world.

It comes from the Camellia sinensis plant and is often blended with other plants for different flavors, such as Earl Grey, English breakfast or chai.

It’s stronger in flavor and contains  less caffeine content than coffee.

Black tea also offers a variety of health benefits because it contains antioxidants and compounds that can help reduce inflammation in the body.

Here are 10 health benefits of black tea, all supported by science.

1.Richest Antioxidant Properties-
Black tea contains a group of polyphenols that have antioxidant properties. Consuming antioxidants may help decrease the risk of chronic diseases and  improve your overall health.
2. A  Boost to Heart Health--Black tea contains flavonoids, which are beneficial for heart health. Studies have found that regularly drinking black tea may help reduce the risk of heart disease.
3. Black Tea Lower “Bad” LDL Cholestero-LDL and HDL are two types of lipoproteins that carry cholesterol throughout the body. Too much LDL in the body can increase the risk of heart disease and stroke. Studies have found that black tea may help reduce LDL levels.
4.  Improve Gut (Stomach) Health--The gut houses trillions of bacteria and the majority of your immune system. Polyphenols and antimicrobial properties found in black tea may help improve gut health and immunity.
5.  Help Reduces Blood Pressure-High blood pressure can cause many health complications. Drinking black tea on a regular basis may help decrease systolic and diastolic blood pressure. However,there are more researches going on to clarify more on this .
6. Help Reduce the Risk of Stroke-Stroke is the second leading cause of death globally. Fortunately, in many cases, it can be prevented. Studies have found that black tea may help reduce the risk of stroke.
7. Black Tea Lowers Blood Sugar Levels--Insulin is a hormone that is secreted when you consume carbohydrates-sugary substances. Black tea is a great non-sweetened beverage that can help improve metabolism and  the use of insulin and reduce blood sugar.
8. Help Reduce the Risk of Cancer-Black tea contains polyphenols, which may help fight cancer cells in the body. Although consuming black tea will not cure cancer, it may help decrease cancer cell development. 
9. Black Tea Improve Focus and Stamina-Black tea can help improve focus due to its content of caffeine and an amino acid called L-theanine. This amino acid increases alpha activity in the brain, which can help improve focus,stamina and alertness thus even help the memory to function. This property in black tea makes it very useful and helpful in tackling men health-poor libido, poor performance and even prostate cancer in men. 
10. Easy to Make--Making black tea is simple and takes only a couple of minutes. You can use either tea bags or loose leaves and adjust the taste to your preference.

The Health Potentials are just too numerous to ignore

Black tea is a great option if you are looking for a low-calorie, non-sweetened beverage with less caffeine than coffee or energy drinks. 

It has a strong, unique flavor and contains plenty of antioxidants, which can provide several health benefits. These include improved cholesterol, better gut health and decreased blood pressure and sugar.

Best of all, it’s simple to make and can easily be found at many stores or online.

If you haven’t done so before, consider trying black tea so you can reap its numerous health benefits.
