A Spot Of Tea For You!
The Brits don't have a good reputation when it comes to health.
But that's not entirely true. If something is done in moderation,
it may actually boost health.
Take a pint... as in beer, a glass or two a few times a wk, can
build strong bones, keep dementia at bay, help you sleep
and keep your heart beating a lot longer.
And speaking of beating hearts, February is "heart health month"
and if you want heart health, then you must look to the Brits.
The Brits?
Yes, and for better heart health, you must adopt their habit of drinking tea.
More specifically black tea.
Why black tea?
It (black tea) can send your level of artery-clogging triglycerides spiraling
down about 35%. Triglycerides are fats that clog up arteries, and too many
of these harmful types of fat will raise your risk of a heart attack considerably.
So, if you can put aside your prejudices of the Brits and adopt this one habit,
you can keep your heart beating strong well into old age.
Recommended dose: 3 cups of black tea a day.
And if you drink tea, make sure to have it with a little honey,
some lemon or a little milk. Skip the sugar and the pastries.
Both are damaging to the heart.
