Tea is also very good in fighting bad breath (with no sugar in it)! ;)

Very interesting article.

I also liked JC Mitchell’s comment about how he puts a few bags of green tea into his (or hers) bottled water. Might give it ago myself ;)

Just to add on. The antioxidants found in green tea can be extremely beneficial to a person’s health. There are claims that green tea can even protect the cells from the oxidation process which causes free radicals in our bodies.

One recent study at Pace University tested the idea that green tea is great for getting rid of bad breath. What they did was mix green tea with certain bacteria that invade the mouth and cause tooth decay and even strep throat. The findings were very interesting, as the green tea actually inhibited the growth of the bacteria, therefore successfully fought against it.

I am posting this for the individual who is hoping for, or searching for some positive feedback about green tea. For one, I find that it does make a tremendous difference in the rate of weight loss. It also alleviates bad breath, improves overall dental health, and it clears the skin. I sometimes use it as a rinse, after a shampoo to stimulate my scalp–which feels very invigorating. I do feel less stressed when drinking green tea, regularly. As for the cost, I keep it minimal. I just drop a few bags of it into my bottled water, and sip it throughout the day. I would say I get about 5-7 cups of it, daily. I let the water get really green, and bitter. It’s a taste that I enjoy, but it might not be everyone’s ‘cup of tea.’ (smile)

I gave up coffee about two years ago when my sister turned me onto tea. She lives in Boston and they have a loose tea store. I went into it and I was overwhelmed by the amount of so many different kinds. They cure everything!! I have a tea I drink before I go to sleep, I have a tea for a stomach ache, and tea for just good old caffiene. Tea does not affect me like coffee does. DRINK TEA!

I liked your lead here. I almost didn’t notice when your chatty hook segued into a scientific explanation – good job. :) I look forward to writing for Scienceline this fall.

I’m not yet ready to give up the 4 shots of espresso the barista sneaks into my americano, but a cup of tea can be nice, especially in the winter.

Nice job with the magazine. You’ve set a mark that my classmates and I will aspire to equal.

They’re working on it:

Jamba Juice also offers a subsitute to coffee, for a caffeine fix, called Matcha Green Tea, which can be taken in a smoothie or as a small 4 ounce shot with soy milk, orange juice, or a mixture of the two, called a “dream shot”. –wikipedia

I started on tea a few weeks ago, and I guess now I will never go back! In fact, maybe I will have some tea right now before move on to my other daily brews…
