Teen Paan Tea – Your Favourite Paan Now in A Teacup
People often misunderstand paan for Pan masala. The latter is mostly responsible for the red tint artistic hues across Indian railways. That is why, there is a misconception of paan. However, science has a different picture for paan (Not masala) leaves. Research studies laud paan for a range of benefits. No wonder, it finds a place in the universe of teas. How? You’ll discover soon. Say hello to Teen Paan tea!
Paan leaves have been long used across our country since ages. We often see the oldsters comfortably chewing paan along with Areca nut and some chuna (Calcium Hydroxide). Traditionally, people used paan for recreational purpose, as an aid for digestion, and to supply calcium to the body. They used a daily dose of this traditional pan mix for several other medical benefits as well.
But the current generation is not into chewing paan, compared to the previous generation. To put it in right words, paan has been marginalized and viewed as the mother of oral disease. How about giving it some scientific perspective?
As per research, betel leaves or paan leaves were of use in Indian Ayurveda since time immemorial. People often chewed them after food. Studies reveal paan to have benefits, such as saliva regulation, maintaining oral hygiene, and other healing properties. To put a crown on paan, these leaves are anti-inflammatory, anti-diabetic, and anti-infective. They also regulate cardiovascular function. More than the nutritional benefits, the healing benefits are more evident in the practice of chewing betel leaves. So, why not bring them to our kitchen again?
Bring paan to the kitchen? Sounds Archaic!
We aren’t suggesting you chew or not chew paan leaves with areca nut. We are suggesting you give Teen Paan tea a try this summer. Not only is it beneficial for summer on the healing side, but it is excellent for refreshing your senses.

Tea is a drink that has always come down in human history as not just another beverage. It is a drink that people cherish. Teen Paan tea by Ono Teas is perfect for your summer moments. It is a beautiful amalgamation of ancient Indian Ayurveda and the richness of tea.
Why Teen Paan tea during summer?
Summer is often always mistaken for a season only and only for icy-cold beverages. That shouldn’t be the case with you anymore after reading this. The practice and science behind having hot drinks during summer can be confusing. However, the scientific part is clear.
By drinking hot tea during summer, you signal your body to decrease your body temperature. What happens on the other side while you have chilled or icy-cold beverages? These beverages drastically reduce your internal body heat. Therefore, your brain has to send signals to balance body temperature, which leads you to a dead end. You will still feel hot and thirsty! That’s precisely where Teen Paan tea comes into the picture. It not only balances body temperature but is inherently cool in nature. So, what else does this tea promise? It comes with a bonanza of healing abilities and holistic health.
Management of constipation

Digestion and metabolism
Paan leaves have anti-flatulent properties that help you break down food. So, chewing paan after meals were frequent, mainly to improve digestion. It ensures stomach issues don’t see the light of the day by balancing out the pH level. And, once digestion and metabolism are smooth, your appetite is regulated too. Teen Paan tea is even better because of the inclusion of the same goodness paan gives you. It is much more aromatic and can be easily shared with your loved ones after a sumptuous meal too.
