Tea and more tea for good health

Is black tea good for health?

You can drink black tea because it is a decent social beverage. However, there are many studies showing that black tea has ZERO health benefits. Black tea has been consumed for hundreds of years by the Orientals and there is no evidence that they have a lower incidence of hypertension compared to Westerners. In fact these populations often have far more resistant hypertension compared to westerners.

For the time being, all consumers should know that black tea is not a substitute for the treatment of high blood pressure. The present treatment of high blood pressure requires medications. Black tea is a great social beverage and is meant to be enjoyed as such. If you starting fooling around with your high blood pressure which junk therapies, you will most likely lose your brain, eye sight, kidneys and have a heart attack- which is definitely not a good thing.
