AI Summary
A study published in the Journal of Internal Medicine found that regular tea drinkers had a lower risk of vascular disease than non‑drinkers. Researchers tracked 485,934 Chinese adults for a median of 9.05 years, during which 14,863 participants developed cardiovascular disease, cerebrovascular disease, pulmonary heart disease or peripheral artery disease. Overall, regular tea consumption was associated with an 11% reduction in the likelihood of these outcomes. The analysis estimated the lowest risk among weekly drinkers who consumed about six to eight cups of tea per day.
