The health benefits and effects of osmanthus tea generally include the following:
1. Detoxifies the body and promotes skin health and beauty.
2. Its rich, aromatic fragrance helps inhibit oral bacterial growth, thereby freshening breath and reducing inflammation.
3. Regulates spleen and stomach function, protects gastric mucosa, and promotes intestinal motility.
4. Moistens the lungs and relieves coughing.
*Note:* Individuals with diabetes or constipation should limit consumption. Additionally, osmanthus tea left overnight is not recommended for drinking.
