May help fight inflammation

Type 2 diabetes, cancer, and other diseases can all be facilitated by chronic inflammation. Antioxidants are substances that aid in the battle against inflammation, perhaps reducing your risk of illness. Tilia flowers contain antioxidants called flavonoids, but linden buds only contain tiliroside, quercetin, and kaempferol.

Strong antioxidant tiliroside works by scavenging free radicals in your body. Oxidative damage from free radicals can result in inflammation. Inflammation may also be reduced by kaempferol. Additionally, some research indicates that it could have cancer-fighting qualities. More investigation is required to understand how much linden tea you would need to consume in order to decrease inflammation because the concentration of these antioxidants may differ by brand and tea mix.
