Charters, you are a riot. So you don't worry about me I generally win.

Green tea. I read a lot of science magazines. We have some arthritus in our family. 7/8 years ago I was starting to have a bit of trouble with my hands hurting.

At the same time in science digest they reported an experiment with green tea and arthritus.

They gave two groups of rats arthritus (don't ask me how). One group the gave green tea (called it treated water-lol). the other group nothing.

Before too long the group without green tea could not even walk. Later they killed both groups to examine them.

The ones with the green tea had almost no joint damage while the other rats joints were almost gone.

Apparently green tea knocks down inflamation better than aspirin. Black tea does nothing.

Large amounts of aspirin can cause blood platlet problems if taken in large doses over a long time.

It is good to keep inflamation down anyway, not sure why docs don't get with this inforamtion.

Since that day I drink 6 tea bags a day (3 per cup (and I let the bags sit in the water a long time)-just liptons) and I have no problems. I do not even take aspirin.

I try to let people know about this because I do not see the infromation anywhere and docs never mention it.
