A study of green tea drinkers has found that they are more likely to remain agile and live independently in old age. The study, published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, looked at around 14,000 adults aged 65 and over for a period of three years and found that 13 per cent of adults who drank less than one cup of green tea per day became functionally disabled, in comparison to 7 per cent in those who drank at least five cups a day.
