Good news for tea lovers! Researchers have found that drinking tea at least three times a week is linked with a longer and healthier life.

“Habitual tea consumption is associated with lower risks of cardiovascular disease and all-cause death,” said Xinyan Wang, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, Beijing in China. “The favourable health effects are the most robust for green tea and for long-term habitual tea drinkers,” Wang added.

Compared with non-habitual tea drinkers, habitual tea consumers had a 20 per cent lower risk of incident heart disease, 22 per cent lower risk of fatal heart disease, and 15 per cent decreased risk of all-cause death.—IANS
