COFFEE – V – TEA, WHICH IS THE BEST FOR YOUR HEALTH?…

With so much being written about how tea is good for so many things, now they are saying that coffee also is good for you.

They say that, according to a Greek study, one cup of coffee a day could reduce your blood pressure. Researchers actually found that those who drank between one and two cups of coffee daily had the healthiest arteries.

Two cups a day (no more than two cups if you are pregnant) could keep Alzheimer’s at bay.

After studying more than 122,000 women, researchers found that three cups a day can reduce the risk of developing ovarian cancer. However, coffee drinkers who have more than three cups a day may increase their risk of a heart attack.

Coffee, like tea is packed with antioxidants which can potentially cut the risk of cancer however more than three cups a day could mean that you are twice as likely to develop rheumatoid arthritis.

Personally, I think I will stick to my occasional coffee and around 6 – 8 cups of tea a day.
