The main enemy of health is not even acute respiratory viral infections, flu and seasonal diseases, but what people eat with great pleasure.
Unfortunately, tasty food is not always healthy, and sometimes even harmful. The result is cholesterol, excess weight, heart and vascular problems.
Patients with cardiovascular diseases need to monitor their diet even more carefully.
But, as representatives of the American Dietetic Association assure, tea will help improve health and reduce the risk of new attacks.
The results of the work were published in the scientific publication Nutrition Journal.
To reduce bad cholesterol levels and the risk of heart attack, it is recommended to drink green tea.
The fact is that the drink contains a number of useful substances, including polyphenols catechins.
Due to their properties, they significantly reduce the level of total and so-called “bad” cholesterol.
In the course of large-scale studies, in which more than 3 thousand people were involved, it was possible to prove the health benefits of green tea.
Moreover, it should be drunk not only by those who are overweight or have heart problems, but also by healthy people.
