Tea Drinkers Reap Blood Pressure Benefits

A dated study but still good news none-the-less. Was spurred to look for this given an ongoing study trying to see if certain African teas can be used to combat type 2 diabetes.

Tea Drinkers Reap Blood Pressure Benefits:

"Those who drank at least a half-cup of moderate strength green or oolong tea per day for a year had a 46% lower risk of developing hypertension than those who didn't drink tea. Among those who drank more than two and a half cups of tea per day, the risk of high blood pressure was reduced by 65%."

INterestingly Hibiscus tea also seems to work according to a new study.
