I used to manage a specialty coffee and tea store in Atlanta. Every time some BS article came out about tea (usually green tea) people who were ill (usually with cancer) would come in and buy up a ton of it. This was pathetic. Here's the deal:

Tea taste good hot.
The taste good iced.

TEA DOES NOT CURE OR HELP A DAMN THING! I guess if you are very sick and kind of desperate there are worse, not to mention more expensive things you can do with your money than throw it away on teas but you are throwing your money away regardless.

Researchers at “Tianjin University” came up with these results. When they’re replicated by workers at Johns Hopkins, Stanford, Duke, Emory, Baylor, or Pritzker, you can take it to the bank. Until then, I’ll reserve judgment.

I am brewing kombucha which is a fermented tea that has lots of probiotics, enzymes and vitamins and minerals. It is a lot of fun. It’s a nice fizzy drink.
