Tea Boosts The Body's Defenses
An ordinary cup of tea may be a powerful infection fighter, a study suggests.Researchers report in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences that they have found in tea a chemical that boosts the body's defense fivefold against disease.""Researchers said the chemical primes immune system cells to attack bacteria, viruses and fungi and could, perhaps, be turned into a disease-fighting drug someday.
The study goes on to say that the best types of tea to drink are black tea, green tea and oolong tea.
Eat (and Drink) Right. Live Better.
