How To Reduce Your Risk of Stroke | Daytona Beach Nursing Malpractice Attorney

A new study shows drinking green tea can reduce your risk of having a stroke. The study was done at Curtin University of Technology.  The results showed drinking at least one cup of tea a week decreased chances of an ischemic stroke. An ischemic stroke happens when an artery to the brain is blocked.

Another study was published in the medical journal of the American Academy of Neurology. This showed that drugs called statins could be taken after you have a stroke and may reduce your chances of having another.  Those in the study who took the statins had a 57% less likely chance of dying. Statins are cholesterol-lowering drugs.
