Black tea and calcium. Odd combination! Usually honey and tea, sugar and tea, cream and tea…but calcium and tea? Johnson Chiropractic likes this new combination for the potential protection of bone. (Chiropractors and their osteoporotic patients everywhere can appreciate that!) Plus, black tea is beneficial for many other conditions.

A new article in the Journal of Osteoporosis just came across the desk here at Johnson Chiropractic. It touts the benefit of black tea extract as an everyday, simple treatment for osteoporosis. The black tea extract seems a capable adjunct therapy for calcium supplements in the early stage of menopausal bone changes. (1) So enjoy some tea with a dab of your favorite taste enhancer. It’s a good thing for you!

Black teas’ 2% to 4% caffeine and antioxidant content make it a healthy drink that your Richmond chiropractor would approve for most patients. We look forward to seeing you at your next Richmond chiropractic appointment and hearing about your preferred black tea combination...and treating any back pain or neck pain you may have!
