Drinking two coffees and teas a day can reduce the risk of stroke and degeneracy

Drinking coffee or tea may be linked to a lower risk of strokes and densities, according to the greatest study of this type.

Brain shocks cause 10% of deaths globally, while degeneracy is one of the world's greatest health challenges of 130 million people are expected to live with it by 2050.

In research, 365,000 people aged 50-74 were followed for more than a decade. Initially, participants who were involved in the Biobank study in the United Kingdom reported how much coffee and tea they drank. During the research period, 5,079 of them developed degeneracy and 10,053 had at least one stroke.

Researchers found that people who drank between two and three cups of coffee or three to five cups of tea a day, or a combination of four to six cups of coffee and tea, had the lowest risk of stroke or degenitation.

Those who drank two to three cups of coffee and two to three cups of tea a day had 32% less risk of stroke. These people had a 28% lower risk of degeneracy compared with those who did not drink tea or coffee.

For the magazine Plos Medicine, the authors said: “Our findings suggested that moderate consumption of coffee and tea separately or in combination were linked to the lowest risk of stroke and degeneration”.

Dr. Rosa Sancho, the head of research at Alzheimer's Research in the United Kingdom, said: “for most of us, our risk of delinquency depends on the complex interaction of our age, genetics and lifestyle. Understanding what aspects of our life - style have the greatest effect on brain health is the key to empowering people to make informed decisions about life. ”
