A new medical study found the good impacts of tea on health, explaining the popular drink’s many advantages.
According to Sky News, the study’s findings were published in the Annals of Internal Medicine, and people who consume more than two cups of tea every day are more likely to live longer than those who do not.
According to the study, whether tea was consumed without additives or with sugar and milk, for example, had no effect on the good effects.
After reviewing data from the UK Biobank, the researchers from the National Institutes of Health discovered that 85 percent of half a million men and women aged 40 to 69 drank tea on a daily basis.
Furthermore, the researchers discovered that drinking tea was connected with a minor decrease in death risk of between 9 and 13 percent over 10 years, particularly for patients suffering from cardiovascular disorders.
The research, according to Fernando Rodriguez Artalejo, Professor of Preventive Medicine and Public Health at the Autonomous University of Madrid, is a significant advance, explaining that most previous studies were conducted in Asia, where green tea is the most consumed, and a few related studies outside Asia were small in size. According to the British Sky News network, the results were inconclusive.
According to Artalejo, the study does not establish definitely that tea is the reason of the drop in premature deaths because it cannot be ruled out that this is due to other health concerns related with tea intake.
More study, according to the professor of preventive medicine and public health, is needed to determine the length of the effect of drinking tea on health, as well as the factors that lead to drinking the drink being beneficial.
According to a recent study, drinking tea can help you live longer, especially if you have cardiovascular disease.
