5 More Benefits of Drinking Tea

I have mentioned in one of my previous post 5 benefits of drinking tea. Now, here are more reasons why drinking tea is healthy.

1. Tea ups your immunity. An amino acid in tea called theanine activates cells involved in the body's first line of defense, reducing the risk of infection.

2. Tea makes bones healthy. It has flavanoids which help build strong bones and increases bone mineral densities.

3. Tea fights free radicals. Tea's high level of antioxidants called polyphenols, flavanoids and cathechins wage war on so-called "free radicals" in the body and prevent them from harming your healthy cells.

4. Tea keeps your heart healthy. It improves the function of endothelia, the inner lining of all bond cells such as the arteries and veins.

5. Tea helps fight cancer. Its antioxidant properties keep cells healthy and inhibit an enzyme which helps cancer cells needed in order to grow.

It's no doubt that drinking tea is healthy. So, grab yourself a glass of one now.
