Do you have tea or coffee after meals? It can lead to anaemia, ICMR suggests

The Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR), in collaboration with the National Institute of Nutrition (NIN), released dietary guidelines for healthy living. “Tea and coffee contain caffeine, which stimulates the central nervous system and causes physiological dependence. Moderate consumption of tea and coffee is advised so that caffeine intake does not exceed tolerable limits (300 mg/day),” the ICMR researchers said.
