reduces the risk of stroke by 70 percent. Researchers contribute this
to the bioflavonoids that studies have linked to protection against
heart attacks, cancer and other diseases. These bioflavonoids have
antioxidant properties that reduce the ability of blood platelets to

high in bioflavonoids, its high vitamin K content may offset their
anticlotting properties.

green teas significantly inhibited cataract formation by decreasing
glucose levels in diabetics. The study was based on the human
consumption of less than five cups of tea per day.

beneficial in reducing inflammation related to arthritis and slowing
cartilage breakdown. It may also improve bone mineral density in older
women. Plus, those who consume tea daily show less risk of memory loss We
