Top 10 Health Benefits of Tea
Tea (to borrow a catchphrase) does a body good. While some marketers
tend to place undue emphasis on just how much good tea can do us, there's compelling evidence nonetheless to show that it can benefit our health on a number of fronts. Here are some of the potential benefits we've examined thus far at the Twinings Tea Blog. 1. Heart Health Have a healthy heart. It's a goal all of us should pursue and if a number of studies on the matter are any indication, tea might help. http://www.twinings.ca/?q=blog/2008/...-Healthy-Heart 2. Weight Loss There are several studies that indicate that tea may play a role in weight loss. http://www.twinings.ca/?q=blog/2008/...in-Weight-Loss 3. Diabetes Research has indicated that green, black and oolong tea may all help protect against diabetes. http://www.twinings.ca/?q=blog/2008/...hting-Diabetes 4. Alzheimer's Evidence this far shows promise for tea and tea extracts in the battle against Alzheimer's. http://www.twinings.ca/?q=blog/2008/...nst-Alzheimers 5. Lung Cancer The health problems posed by tobacco smoking are surely no secret to anyone these days. What probably isn't so well known is that tea may help guard against lung cancer. http://www.twinings.ca/?q=blog/2008/...nd-Lung-Cancer 6. Cholesterol There are no shortage of claims for the many potential health benefits drinking tea can provide, including the possibility that it may lower your cholesterol level. http://www.twinings.ca/?q=blog/2008/...er-Cholesterol 7. Osteoporosis For tea drinkers, there may be benefits related to osteoporosis, according to a number of research studies. http://www.twinings.ca/?q=blog/2008/...t-Osteoporosis 8. Parkinson's Disease For Parkinson's sufferers, the possibility that tea may help fight the disease can only come as welcome news. http://www.twinings.ca/?q=blog/2008/...insons-Disease 9. Prostate Cancer It's probably fair to conclude that drinking a couple cups of tea a day is not a bad way to help guard against prostate cancer. http://www.twinings.ca/?q=blog/2008/...rostate-Cancer 10. Stress Tea might possess qualities that help reduce stress and aid in relaxation. http://www.twinings.ca/?q=blog/2008/...ote-Relaxation |
