Carol, I am NOT an authority on green tea, although I have read of its health benefits and am following new disclosures. The one interesting thing I heard recently, but cannot find the story to reference here, is that black tea may have the same preventive qualities as green tea, and another chemical one as well, which may be even more beneficial, but that the studies have not been completed. I do know that Ireland has the highest rate of cancer and heart disease in Europe, and they drink plenty of black tea. Of course, they also eat blood pudding and fry stuff in bacon grease while smoking like chimneys and washing it all down with serious amounts of alcohol. Of coure, if you live in the North you are also popping handfuls of tranquilizers at the same time you are carrying weapons around the kitchen. So I am not sure this indicates anything negative about black tea! Chrissy
