Assam Mid Season Tea TGFOP1 Benefits

Although not yet proven outright, some researchers believe that Tea (no matter the type) can reduce the risk of developing cancer.

Indeed, preliminary evidence from a 2015 meta-analysis has already shown promising results. It noted that drinking a brew a day could reduce cancer risks by 2%. Those who drank the most Tea, on the other hand, had a 21% lower cancer risk than those who drank none.

It’s essential to note, however, that The Kent and Sussex Tea and Coffee Company does not endorse the consumption of Tea for this purpose at this stage. Nevertheless, we support ongoing research.
