DRINKING four cups of tea a day can be better for health than plain water, a study claimed today. Tea rehydrates the body and also offers protection against heart disease and cancer, according to research published in the European Journal of Clinical Nutrition.
This overturns the common belief that drinking tea leads to dehydration.
Dr Carrie Ruxton said the "overwhelming evidence" was that tea, which contains cell-preserving antioxidants, was better for health than water.
