Scientists in Holland report that moderate intake of tea and coffee lowers heart disease risk.
They reported that tea was more effective than coffee in this regard. People who drank three to six cups of tea every day were 45% lower risk of heart disease compared to people who drank one cup or less and those who consumed more than six cups — had a 36% lower risk. The size of the sample was more than 37,000 people over 11 years.
Coffee drinkers, consuming 2-4 cups of coffee daily had a 20% lower risk. One factor as to why this risk level was not as good for coffee drinks may be that coffee drinkers are more likely to smoke than are tea drinkers.
