Hi Ann,

Been doing some reading lately in the rain on immunology stuff.  I just read

this medscience article which shows that the EGCG component of green tea shuts

off the offending immune cells which are producing the chemical warfare which

causes the damage of many autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis and

rheumatoid arthritis.  Black tea does not have the EGCG component in it, so

green tea is the beverage of choice for your health.

Green tea EGCG, T cells, and T cell-mediated autoimmune diseases.

i would drink both black and green teas. black tea converts EGCg into other good

compounds that green tea doesnt have.

alternate between different teas is a good thing rather than just green tea.

take Darjeeling tea for instance

http://www.darjeelingtea.com/experience/dartea.asp

The health-giving properties of tea have been written about for centuries. A

Materia Medica of the 1st Century AD period attributed eighteen therapeutic

properties to tea:

•Refreshing effect

•Relaxation of nerves

•Brightening of eyes

•Combating alcoholism

•Reduction of obesity

•Cleansing the blood of heat and impurities

•Quenching thirst

•Treatment of abscesses

•Elimination of phlegm

•Curing dysentery

•Stimulating digestion

•Cleansing the bowels

•Giving energy

•Strengthening teeth

always get organic if you can.

Also white tea is of huge benefit for your lungs. tea's like dandelion root tea

and licorice root tea are good examples you can benefit from.

My wife drinks these white teas to stop Pneumonia or if she does get

aspirated/Pneumoniashe heals much faster .

best to research all teas, green, black, white etc... and drink each for its

specific uses.

the beneifits are truely amazing. and doesnt cost an arm and a leg.

Should we take it with or without the caffeine?
