Tea prolongs life.

The risk of premature death among those who drink at least two cups of tea a day is 9-13% lower than those who do not like the drink. These conclusions were made by British scientists during a ten-year study involving 500,000 people aged 40-69. Among them, 85% regularly drank tea, 89% of them preferred black varieties. The effect is the same from ordinary tea, and from tea with sugar, and from tea with milk. The temperature of the drink also does not matter, as well as the characteristics of human metabolism. The benefits of tea can be explained by the fact that it contains substances that relieve inflammation and oxidative stress, as well as strengthen blood vessels and maintain energy levels in the body.
