I've always used Red, simply because it was all that was available. I
was a boxer and a hockey player for 12 years, so it has come in handy
more times than I can count and in as many ways. I have arthritis in my
knee's due to the sport and it helps a bit sometimes there, but not
anything major. Fever's, Sinuses, colds, headaches, muscle pain... its
all good.

I will search for the Pu-Erh and cholesterol thread, did it work? It
seems like it would for a couple real reasons so that is why I figured
I'd give it a shot. It can't hurt him, and he gave up cigars years back
so some Pu-Erh may just bea soothing thing for him on a couple levels.

I agree with you, if it keeps me alive one day longer, that is just one
more cup of tea I get to enjoy.
