Drink Tea & Relax
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 After a tough day, sitting with a cup of hot tea sounds pretty nice, doesn't it? Leave it to the tea-loving British to figure out why.

Researchers at the University College London discovered that people who drink caffeinated black tea can de-stress more quickly than those drinking a caffeinated tea substitute. Even after a particularly yucky event -- like the threat of losing their job or a nasty accusation -- people who drank tea had less stress hormones in their bodies.

Because black tea is so chemically complex, scientists haven't figured out which ingredient is responsible for its soothing effect. But one thing is for sure. Although lots of health benefits have been linked with green tea, looks like black tea is a winner too!


Tip of the Month
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 If you want to give black tea a try, keep this in mind:

  • Which Black Tea is Best? Choose any type of black tea -- from Lipton to Earl Grey -- it doesn't matter.

  • When To Drink? Anytime is good. You don't need to wait until you're stressed to enjoy a cup of tea.


    • Would You Like To Be Happier and Healthier?
