Tea flavonols could reduce stroke risk

April 1, 2010 |  by Erwin R Gonzalez  |  KINETIC Seniors  |  Comments Off  |  Share

Compounds in tea called flavonols appear to help protect people from stroke, according to a new meta-analysis from researchers in The Netherlands. They reviewed six population groups in The Netherlands, Finland and the United States, comprising a total of over 100,000 people, who were free of cardiovascular disease at the start. The participants were followed up for between six and 28 years, during which time there were 2155 cases of stroke, both fatal and non-fatal. The researchers attempted to correlate stroke risk with increased flavonol intake, of which tea is a major source. They found that increasing intake of flavonols is linked with a decrease of stroke risk of up to 20%. A similar study last year found that stroke risk was reduced by a higher intake of both black and green tea. read more Go to Source
