According to research by Japan's National Cerebral and Cardiovascular Center published in the American Heart Association's journal, Stroke, people who consume a cup of coffee a day and four or more cups of green tea a day have a much reduced chance of getting a stroke. This is primarily due to the anti-inflammatory effects of green tea and its blood circulation control, plus the benefits of quinides in coffee.
