Tea and coffee may both offer health benefits

Researchers have found that regular consumption of tea and coffee could be of benefit to health. The journal of the American Heart Association has reported the research which has suggested.

That those who drink more than six cups of tea a day are a third less likely to develop heart problems than those who drink none.

Coffee drinkers also fared well, although not as well as tea drinkers. Those who consumed between two and four cups of coffee a day had a 20 per cent lower risk of heart disease than those who drank little.
