How many cups of tea are good for health?

ISLAMABAD: Tea is very popular in Pakistan and it seems that some people like to drink it all the time.

Tea contains many nutrients including caffeine, fluoride and flavonols that benefit health.

Various research reports have found that drinking tea reduces the risk of heart disease, diabetes and other diseases.
