The scientific evidence continues to mount about the numerous health benefits of drinking tea. Hundreds of recent scientific research studies have found many potential health attributes associated with tea. Over the past 15 years, research has found that drinking black, green or oolong tea may offer some protection from cardiovascular disease and cancer, lead to reduced risk of kidney stones, and strengthen bones, teeth and the immune system. “There is unequivocal evidence that tea as a lifestyle factor can impact health,” said Dr. Carol Greenwood, Professor of Nutritional Sciences at the University of Toronto. “Drinking tea should be considered part of a healthy lifestyle.” Tea was identified as one of the most healthy beverage choices in recently published guidelines for healthy beverage consumption. Developed by a panel of American nutrition experts and published in the March 2006 issue of the Journal of American Clinical Nutrition, the guidelines determined that tea is second only to water as the healthiest beverage choice. The guidelines, created to help consumers make smart beverage consumption decisions, was based on a detailed analysis of the health and nutritional benefits and the risks of various types of beverages.
