decaff has also been shown to be addictive Here is some info. What about decaf—does it pose any risks? Though decaf has been less studied than regular coffee, it too has been the focus of several health scares that have so far not panned out. For instance, a recent study of women in Iowa found that those drinking four or more cups a day of decaf had an elevated risk of rheumatoid arthritis, but a more recent study from Harvard found no such link. Decaf can, however, have some of the same effects on the body as regular coffee. It too can cause heartburn or irritate stomach ulcers in susceptible people. And oddly enough, even without the caffeine, it too can stimulate the nervous system and briefly boost blood pressure in those unaccustomed to coffee, according to Swiss researchers. But coffee, decaf or regular, does not cause

hypertension. Is decaffeinated tea as healthful as regular? No one knows. The studies suggesting health benefits have looked at people who drink a lot of regular tea, not decaf. The benefits apparently come from antioxidant compounds called flavonoids. Decaf tea generally contains less of these, though flavonoid con-tent varies widely among teas, so it is hard to predict. The levels also depend on how the tea was processed. Moreover, not all types of flavonoids are lower in decaf tea, and it’s not known which ones are most important. A few studies suggest that decaffeinated teas do have potential anti-cancer effects. For instance, one study found that smokers who drank four cups of decaffeinated green tea daily for four months had significantly reduced DNA damage, as shown by urine tests. Another study gauged the total anti-oxidant capacity of various teas and found that some decafs rank higher than some regular

teas. On the horizon: Coffee plants are now being genetically engineered to have 70% less caffeine. But it will take another four to five years for the plants to mature and produce beans. And it’s not known whether coffee from these beans will taste better or worse than today’s decaf. UC Berkeley Wellness Letter, May 2004 What are the symptoms of caffeine withdrawal? Regular caffeine consumption reduces sensitivity to caffeine. When caffeine intake is reduced, the body becomes oversensitive to adenosine. In response to this oversensitiveness, blood pressure drops dramatically, causing an excess of blood in the head (though not necessarily on the brain), leading to a headache. This headache, well known among

coffee drinkers, usually lasts from one to five days, and can be alleviated with analgesics such as aspirin. It is also alleviated with caffeine intake (in fact several analgesics contain caffeine dosages). Often, people who are reducing caffeine intake report being irritable, unable to work, nervous, restless, and feeling sleepy, as well as having a headache. In extreme cases, nausea and vomiting has also been reported. Gayla <goatclearing@...> wrote: " Good grief! Decaf is a no-no!"Why is decaf a no no? Any kind of decaf?

Isn't decaf coffee made with carbon tetrachloride or some such thing? Some bad chemical that leaches the caffeine out of it.

As far as I know the Swiss water method does not use "bad" chemicals to take out caffeine. But I could be wrong about that too.

I made your wonderful bath salts for my wife Suzanne. I have a little trick I use for recipes calling for clay... kitty litter. Only if it says 100% clay and has nothing added to it. No additives, no scent, etc. Anyway, approximately how much to a standard bathtup would you say? Jeff
