6 reasons to drink more green tea this morning

Research says green tea can cut heart disease. But it can do much more. According to new research, just one cup of green tea a day could lower the risk of heart disease and premature death. The study, conducted by Japanese researchers, analysed readings of more than 90,000 people aged 40 to 69 over four years and found that the more green tea they drank, the less likely they were to die from heart disease, stroke and respiratory disease. It is thought that green tea, which is high in antioxidants called polyphenols, helps regulate blood pressure and body fat. But if heart disease isn’t enough of a lure to drink green tea, hopefully these other six reasons may persuade you to go grab a cup.
