Drinking three cups of tea a day can cut the risk of diabetes, says new research.

Two studies show that black tea has a glucose-lowering effect that could help prevent and manage type 2 diabetes, which affects 2.3 million Britons.

Experts say the findings suggest around three cups a day might help the body control blood sugar levels more effectively.

In the studies US and Japanese scientists investigated extracts from black tea in the laboratory.

They discovered the action of natural ingredients in black tea could lead to reductions in blood sugar.

Didn't work for me! 🙄 Don't you just love this sort of thing?
 
OMG that's why I've got the betes, I can't stand tea 😱
 
That's me sorted then! 🙂

Will it matter if I also stuff myself with cake and chocolate when drinking my cups of tea, and lounge around on the sofa?
