The famous British habit of 'putting the kettle on' could potentially help you live longer, according to new research.
Scientists conducting an extended study found that people who drank two or more cups of tea each day had between a 9% and 13% lower risk of mortality when compared with those who do not enjoy the drink.
The research from the US National Institutes of Health used data collected from more than half a million men and women aged 40 to 69 from the UK Biobank to assess the connection between tea consumption and mortality.
