Dr. Shen Yonghua
Drinking tea made from kumquat peel can supplement the body with essential vitamins, enhance the function of various organs, and help prevent diseases caused by vitamin deficiencies. This is because kumquat peel contains vital nutrients such as vitamin C, vitamin B complex, and beta-carotene.
Moderate consumption of kumquat peel tea can also stimulate the secretion of digestive juices, alleviate spleen and stomach weakness, and promote gastrointestinal motility—thereby significantly supporting digestive health. It helps improve appetite and relieve indigestion, while also exerting expectorant and antitussive effects and aiding in hypertension prevention.
We hope this information is helpful to you. Wishing you good health!
