A 10-year study of nearly 10,000 women aged 65 and older found that regular tea drinking was linked to slightly higher bone mineral density, a key marker of osteoporosis risk. Moderate coffee intake showed no overall harm, but consuming more than five cups a day was associated with lower bone density, particularly among women who reported higher lifetime alcohol use, according to researchers from Flinders University.
