SAEDNEWS: New research shows that drinking tea regularly is the best method for protecting the heart. This is great news for those who love drinking tea.
According to SAEDNEWS, researchers from the University of New South Wales, Australia, studied six popular beverages: tea, coffee, alcoholic drinks, carbonated sodas, energy drinks, and fruit juices. The results showed that tea offers the most health benefits among these drinks.
Dr. Kerry Rockston, a nutrition expert, says, "The results of this new study show that tea is the best drink for protecting our hearts. For tea lovers, knowing that drinking tea helps support heart health is very encouraging."
This study, published in the journal Current Developments in Nutrition, reviewed 20 previous studies on the link between heart disease and the long-term consumption of popular beverages. The study found that tea consistently offered lasting health benefits for both genders.
Repeated studies show that the polyphenols in tea leaves have a wide range of benefits. They act as antioxidants, cleansing harmful molecules from the blood, preventing cell damage, reducing stress, and improving metabolism. It is also said that tea reduces the risk of type 2 diabetes and some cancers, and helps with weight loss.
Dr. Rockston adds, "This research shows that each additional cup of tea per day reduces the risk of death from cardiovascular diseases by 4%, and it highlights the benefits of starting the habit of drinking tea from early adulthood or even childhood."
These findings underscore the importance of drinking tea regularly for heart health, showing that this simple habit can have a significant impact on long-term health.
