In a study published in Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology: Journal of the American Heart Association, consumption of tea and moderate coffee consumption are linked to a reduces risk of heart disease.
Researchers in the Netherlands found that drinking more than 6 cups of tea each day reduced the risk of heart disease by 36%. Interestingly, drinking 3 to 6 cups of tea each day reduced the risk of heart disease by 45%. This is a comparison to people who drink less than 1 cup of tea each day. Drinking 3 to 6 cups of tea each day appears to be the optimal amount for health.
The report also shows that drinking 2 to 4 cups of coffee each day reduced the risk of heart disease by 20% compared to those drinking less than 2 cups or drinking more than 4 cups. Drinking 2 to 4 cups of coffee each day is the optimum amount.
Apparently, neither tea or coffee affected stroke risks.
