It contains  huge amount of chemicals, called flavonoids — a natural class of antioxidants that are found in many natural plant-derived foods.

Drinking more than two cups of tea a day decreased the risk of death following a heart attack by 44 percent. Tea is a rich source of the flavonoids quercetin, kaempferol, and myricetin, and research shows that high dietary intake of these compounds is associated with a reduced risk of fatal heart attacks.
 
4.Bone Density
Studies indicate that phytochemicals in tea, such as flavonoids, may protect against bone loss: Regular tea drinkers have higher bone density than non-tea drinkers. Drinking tea regularly for years may produce stronger bones. Those who drank tea on a regular basis for 10 or more years had higher-bone mineral density in their spines than those who had not.
