The Benefits of Green Tea

I recently gave up coffee and replaced it in my morning ritual with Green Tea...specifically Tazo Green Tea because it gives me a reason to keep going to Starbucks.

The alleged Health Benefits of Green Tea are very impressive and raises the question, "Why doesnt everybody drink green tea?". After all it is reported that green tea is helpful with
  • cancer
  • rheumatoid arthritis
  • high cholesterol levels
  • cardiovascular disease
  • infection
  • impaired immune function

    It is a veritable "Who's Who" of baby boomer complaints. So why doesnt everyone drink green tea? There is currently only one drawback to green tea and that is that it is sometimes linked to insomnia because it does contain caffeine. IT contains from 30-60 mg of caffeine to Coffee's 100mg in a single cup. So, why dont more people drink green tea?


    It tastes like crap.
