According to traditional Chinese medicine, different people present different physical types such as dry heat and deficient cold. When we talk about tea, it is divided into "cool" and "mild" types according to different manufacture process. Therefore, different people may need to choose differently when it comes to tea drinking. Those of the dry heat type should drink "cool" tea, while those of the other type should drink “mild” tea.

Expert Recommendation: Those people who smoke, drink alcohol, tend to suffer from excessive internal heat, or have a plump shape (i.e. those of the dry heat type) should drink "cool" tea; while those suffer from deficient cold in stomach, or feel abdominal distention after eating balsam pear or watermelon, or those of weak health should drink moderate or mild tea. Black tea and Puerh tea are better choices for people of old age.
