Ahahahhahaha

I remember headlines saying that tea drinkers were more likely to get Alzheimer's. Some correlation between Aluminium and tea. Might have been the fancy Aluminium tea pots.

This is weak ass psuedo-science based on surveys. Not measurements.

Totally. Every week there's a study to say caffeine is bad for you, then the next week there's a study saying it's good for you.

It’s claimed the very first study on this was conducted by King Gustav III of Sweden who had a one tein drink coffee and the other drink tea every day for the rest of their lives.

The coffee drinking twin outlived Gustav and the doctors monitoring him, while the tea drinker made it to 83.
