A meta-analysis published in the journal Nutrition Research reported that drinking tea can help lower a person’s chances of getting osteoporosis. The researchers, who were from the China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences, reviewed existing observational studies to look at the association between tea consumption and the risk of osteoporosis.
Based on these findings, the Chinese researchers concluded that drinking tea could help prevent osteoporosis by increasing bone mineral density.
