Study explores connection between tea consumption and disability rates
Abstract
A recent disability study read the tea leaves to explore the connection between disability and dietary habits. Researchers from three Chinese universities examined whether tea drinking is linked to lower disability levels among older adults in China. Using data from a large, long‐running national study called the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey, the survey followed adults over many years and collected detailed information about their health, lifestyle, and daily functioning.
