i never drink coffee cos i don't like it, and i very rarely drink tea, a cup a week if that!
Yep I agree we are best mates , sometimes I think about taking it a bit further and asking Northy to marry me one day, but I think that would make Andy jealous as I think he has a soft spot for me too.Originally Posted by King Stromba

Mat.
I love Tea. I'm on my third Cup already this morning.
Tea's good for you - lot's of antoxidants in it apparently. I have decaf with semi skimmed milk to kid myseld I'm being more healthy.lol.
But caffiene protects against alzheimers disease.
Haha, the polyphenols in tea is what i research (but not just in tea).
Black tea contains alot of tanins which are polyphenol substances formed when the tea is made, and they give it its black colour.
Green tea contains less tanins, but more of the catechins (such as epicatechin, catechin, epigallocatechin gallate etc).
Green tea and balck tea are actually from the same plant (Camelia sinensis), the green tea the leaves are steamed, but the black tea the leaves are fermented (basically burnt, which is why they are black).
Green tea protects against a number of forms of cancer such as bowl and oesophogeal cancer, perhaps through an antioxidant pathway, or perhaps enzymatically, ie inhibition of urokinase.
