UK cardiac jobs: Heart disease cut by two cups of tea a day
Thursday 14th October 2010
Those looking for UK cardiac jobs have been told of new research which showed that drinking two cups of tea a day can cut heart disease.
Researchers from the School of Medicine and Pharmacology at the University of Western Australia found that green or black versions of the beverage increases the body's intake of health, boosting flavonoids and cutting the danger of heart problems by 11 per cent.
One cup of tea contains 150-200mg of flavonoids, meaning that drinking two cuppas a day is equivalent to eating five portions of vegetables and two apples.
"This new review presents yet more evidence that consumption of tea decreases the risk of cardiovascular disease," said Dr Catherine Hood of the Tea Advisory Panel.
Vera Pinneck, writing for Lonad.com, recently said that green tea has many benefits, having been drunk by the Asian population for at least a thousand years, those looking for UK cardiac jobs have been told.
