Likewise women who drank tea were 50 per cent more likely to die from a heart attack than those

Likewise, women who drank tea were 50 per cent more likely to die from a heart attack than those who drank coffee.Researchers sent questionnaires to randomly selected people as part of the Scottish Heart Health Study, asking them how much coffee, tea and alcohol they drank and other lifestyle questions such as whether or not they smoked. The study of 11,000 people, published today in the Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health dispels the popular belief that coffee, which is known to alter heart rhythms, has a adverse effect on people's health. The research, conducted on men and women in Scotland aged between 40 and 59, found that the risk of dying from a heart attack doubled for men if they drank five cups of tea rather than five cups of coffee. COFFEE drinkers enjoy better health and are less likely to die from a heart attack than tea lovers, according to a new study. Doctors have found that the higher the coffee consumption, the lower the risk of heart disease, while for tea drinkers the opposite is true.
