I READ on the front of a newspaper that if you drink at least three cups of tea every day it may help to hold back the onset of dementia.
It did not say which tea - Ringtons, Yorkshire, Typhoo, Herbal or Fairtrade.
If this is true I should be OK as I drink at least seven cups of tea a day and my sister, who died seven years ago with this dreadful illness, should have been OK as she was a tea drinker also.
I just pray that they will eventually find the real cause of dementia and the way to hopefully stop it.
