THE HEALTH RISKS OF BUBBLE TEA
(Translation - Frank Kwong)

Bubble tea brings a lot of sweet excitement to our taste buds but it is also very harmful to health. Milk essence (dairy creamer) is the main ingredient in bubble tea. Ten cups of fresh milk cannot match the taste of a teaspoon of milk essence.

The main ingredient of milk essence is hydrogenated vegetable oil, a type of trans fats. Experts says that a glass of 500ml of bubble tea a day far exceed the allowable limit of trans fats for any person. It will lead to heart and blood vessel diseases.

Milk essence gives the bubble tea the fragrance and makes it tasty. The fragrance and tastiness derived from a type of chemical. This chemical has a trace of arsenic, lead, copper and many harmful minerals. Long term consumption can lead to heart and blood vessel diseases, cancer, asthma and other health complications. It reduces the IQ of children.

Consuming the black bubbles is equivalent to consuming plastic. Normally these bubbles were made from cassava (tapioca) powder. This alone does not give the rubbery texture. To make it more rubbery, millet protein is added.

Some "black hearted" businessmen felt that this is still not rubbery enough so, an artificial plastic powder is added. This type of artificial plastic material will never be digested and absorbed into the body. It will remain in the body and cause havoc to our health. You can imagine what will happen to your health after prolonged consumption of trans fats and plastic!!!! 


FOR YOUR HEALTH SAKE, PLEASE ABSTAIN FROM BUBBLE TEA.
