A US study on more than 76,000 women found consuming tea raised the risk, while drinking coffee had no impact.
Tea-lovers who enjoyed more than four cups a day had the highest risk - being 78% more likely to develop rheumatoid
arthritis than those who drank none.
But drinking any amount of tea increased the chance by 40%, compared with people who never drank tea.
The findings were presented at the Annual Congress of the
European League Against Rheumatism in Rome.
Professor Christopher Collins, from Georgetown University Medical Centre in the US, said he was surprised by the differences between coffee and tea. - Yahoo
