A study by Chinese scientists found that regular consumption of green tea can extend life by 15 months.
The study analyzed data from more than 100,000 people over 7 years who did not suffered from chronic diseases at the start of the study.
The results showed that those who regularly drank green tea had a 20 percent lower risk of death from heart disease, such as heart attack and stroke.

“Older adults who drank green tea tended to experience heart problems 1.5 years later than those who did not drink the drink,” the researchers reported.
Experts indicate that the beneficial effects of green tea on health are due to its composition, which includes polyphenols, flavonols, theaflavins and catechins. These substances have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.
Scientists also note that although other types of tea also contain polyphenols, they are not always effectively absorbed by the body. For example, in black tea, these substances quickly undergo fermentation, as a result of which they lose most of their beneficial properties.
Recall that we previously reported how to check the condition of the heart using steps: two simple methods were named.
