Drinking tea thus helps reduce the
risk of cancer; medical research has found that for instance, women who drink
at least a cup of tea daily have been able to reduce their risk of developing
ovarian cancer by as much as 10 percent more than those who do not take tea.
Tea has also been found to stave off heart disease, the risk of diabetes type2
(by as much as 25 per cent), stroke, and Alzheimer’s disease. Tea also helps to
improve dental health and thereby preventing cavity by fighting the usually stubborn

lowers stroke rate and fights mouth bacteria called streptococcus mutans. But
