Tea 'reduces ovarian cancer risk'
The risk of developing ovarian cancer can be reduced by drinking tea, a team of Swedish researchers says.
Karolinska Institute researchers found drinking at least two cups a day cut the risk by nearly 50%. Antioxidants in tea are thought to be the reason.
The team quizzed over 60,000 women, 301 of whom developed ovarian cancer.
The Archives of Internal Medicine study said more research was needed, and UK experts added there was still no proof of the benefits.
Tea just keeps on getting better.
