what 's everyone's favorite tea?
Tea smells and tastes horrid.
I felt it needed to be said from the start X(
A few of my friends are true tea-addicts (they buy this quite expensive one from a special store). I don't like it though..
Unlike Coffee, tea is good for you. Just don't drink it whilst eating your main meals.
skoE, why not drink it then?
I personally like a nice cup of Tetley in the evening, or when I'm feeling over stressed.
How can you guys be so into the flavor combos of beer but not like tea?
You must have had some grungy tea badly brewed. ![]()
I think nepalese tea is the best because it comes from milder soil than lowland teas
Some of those herbal teas you have to be careful of drinking more than a few cups and sassafras tea is carcinogenic
But green tea is safe and you can mix in some other kinds for a different flavor
Here in california the sun is strong enough we can brew tea with it, leave tea in a big closed glass jar in direct sunlight for a few hours
In summer i brew iced tea by the gallon
And you can drink it with meals, chinese urge the practice
Tea > coffee.

I swear there was something related to Iron though. Maybe i have been playing IC too much...
I dunno, though sadly i drink so much coffee out of necessity in the past few years i cant really enjoy it as a treat anymore
aww:)
i heard the same skoe, mebbe it depends on the type of tea
?
some elements of the tea would prevent some other elements of the food to be efficiently taken up by your body, mebbe iron, mebbe vitamins, but it was okies after yr meal, and i believe on the overal tea is rich with antioxidants, and depending on the added herbses other qualities
zomg carciogenic tea:o
*looks up sassafras
and i believe chines have tea after the meal?

"Do not drink tea - Because tea leaves contain a high content of acid. This substance will cause the Protein content in the food we consume to be hardened thus difficult to digest."
Isn't stomach acid full of...acid?
"Don't after a Meal"
"Don't after a Meal"
Do they (tea, stomach acid, proteins) all end up in the stomach?
Simon, asking if stomach acid ends up in the stomach may be a tad redundant.
And yay, Mishe! We stand strong against tea!
Oi, don't forget me. I loathe the stuff a lot too..
Lloyd, a previously posted website claims that drinking tea after meals is bad for you because the acidity of tea hardens proteins, thus making it hard to digest. So I think it fairly non-redundant to make sure my understanding of basic biology is that it all ends up in the stomach, where it is very acidic (pH of 1 and 2), and thus showing ingesting the acidity of tea should therefore prove insignificant to the acidity of your stomach acid.
Next time around we'll keep the yummy tea and throw the Europeans into Boston Harbor
/pets tea
Simon, you missed my point.
I must have missed the "verb" of your post. Care to elaborate?
I should stop making lame jokes. People don't get them anymore these days...
I just pointed out how it's silly to ask whether stomach acids end up in the stomach, cause that's how your question seemed.
Sheesh, make a stupid joke...
oh. lol.
It's just as you said, and my silly question is exactly as I made it seem. It's to point out the inconsistency in protein absorption in the presence tea and stomach acid.
