JAKARTA - Drinking tea every day can improve health, prolong life insurance and help reduce the risk of some life-threatening illnesses, according to a study by Annals of Internal Medicine.

In the study, Chinese scientists, such as Medical Daily broadcast last September, found drinking two to four cups of black tea, green or oolong per day lowering the risk of type 2 diabetes by 17 percent.

Drinking one to three cups daily lowers the risk of 4 percent developing diabetes and this risk is dropping 1 percent for each additional cup.

Xialing Li, co-author of research and research at the Wuhan University of Science and Technology, said the results of this study were encouraging because it offered hope for people to reduce the risk of developing type 2 diabetes.

According to them, these findings show that even higher levels of intake of tea can be part of a healthy diet.

"Higher tea intake is associated with lower risk of death among those who drink two cups or more per day," study researcher said.

Researchers who evaluate data over 11 years plan to present these findings in the European Association for the Study of Diabetes next week.
