Arrow Beans & Leaves

Came across this interesting article from GourmetRetailer.com about a new study shows that green tea can protect your heart arteries by keeping them flexible and relaxed, and therefore better able to withstand changes in blood pressure. The study, led by Dr. Nikolaos Alexopoulos of Athens Medical School in Greece, found that among 14 subjects, those who drank green tea showed greater dilation of their heart arteries on ultrasound 30 minutes later than those drinking either diluted caffeine or hot water. Experts caution, however, that one study isn't enough to make green tea the next medical miracle.

At the not so local Chinese tea shoppe they had an author give a
presentation on his tea book about monks,meditation, and the ancient
medicinal benefits. I didnt go but I understand standing room only.
Gad I want one cup of tea with someone in my lifetime who doesnt have
an angle. I sometimes think maybe I have a subconcious motivation
about my passion for tea. All I tell people you cant appreciate a cup
till you appreciate yourself. Tea is a self fulfilling revelation.

PS Hummm I drink tea, I lived another day longer. There has to be a
connection.

I'm a bit overweight, balding, and frequently succumb to colds and
sore throats and I drink liters a day! Now that is how it should be
sold! "Tea. It won't do a damn thing for you but make you happy for a
small time." Gotta go, my career in advertising is taking off.

Im no living testimonial of the health benefits of drinking tea all
your adult life. If it keeps me alive another day longer Ill never
know it. As I always say it didnt cost me anything extra.

Jim

PS If you want to lose weight while drinking tea have it during
liposuction. The health benefits of tea are maximized if consumed
before,during,after exercise.
