Did you know? A single cigarette contains 6 to 12 mg of nicotine. This is not good for heart health. Experts say that smokers are 2-3 times more likely to have a heart attack than non-smokers. The nicotine in cigarettes causes constriction in the arteries that supply blood to your heart. This prevents clean blood from reaching your heart. It also greatly increases the risk of heart attack.

Tea contains natural compounds called polyphenols. These are considered to be heart-healthy. But adding milk to tea negatively affects its good qualities. That is, the protein in milk reduces the effect of polyphenol elements in tea. This increases your heart rate if you drink too much tea. There is also a risk of developing high blood pressure. Both of these put heart health at risk.
