Wow that sounds promising! Let us know what you think about. BTW I have seen a few news articles recently about coffee. One was talking about how coffee reduced skin cancer. Although I thing they determined the caffeine was the ingredient that was doing the work.

The other article was about how they (researchers) have found drinking coffee might reduce alzheimer's.

I forgot to say even though&nbsp;phenol's&nbsp;is natural it is a acid which is&nbsp;probably&nbsp;the thing that makes us get those stomach aches and acid reflux. It just grows naturally to protect the plants or fruits.<div>Well thats good to know&nbsp;caffeine&nbsp;is good for something!</div>

I'm with SL1966 <img src="../images/boards/smilies/thumb.gif" alt="" align="absmiddle" border="0" />,&nbsp; <span style="text-align: left;">Rooibos is my all time favorite tea. It has an amazing flavor all on it's own... it tastes almost like the smell of pipe tobacco... But in a good way, not the ****** ashtray way.&nbsp;<img src="../images/boards/smilies/biggrin.gif" alt="" align="absmiddle" border="0" /><br /><br />If you are serious about tea(read tea snob<img src="../images/boards/smilies/rolleyes.gif" alt="" align="absmiddle" border="0" />) you will get the loose leaf stuff. The crap in the bags is the stuff they sweep up off the floor after they're done making the loose leaf stuff&nbsp;<img src="../images/boards/smilies/rofl.gif" alt="" align="absmiddle" border="0" /></span>

And as far as cost for the tea goes, I shop at Amazon almost all the time.<br /><br />it's around $14 a pound for loose leaf and the same for a box of 100 bags <img src="/images/boards/smilies/smile.gif" border="0" align="absmiddle"><br /><br /><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Davidsons-Tea...id=1343279582&amp;sr=8-1&amp;keywords=Rooibos">http://www.amazon.com/Davidsons-Tea...id=1343279582&amp;sr=8-1&amp;keywords=Rooibos<br /><br /></a><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Davidsons-Org...id=1343279582&amp;sr=8-2&amp;keywords=Rooibos">http://www.amazon.com/Davidsons-Org...id=1343279582&amp;sr=8-2&amp;keywords=Rooibos</a>

OK, I&nbsp;finally made it to the Teavana&nbsp;shop and picked up some tea. I ended up getting the Tulsi Dosha Chai rooibos. All I can say is this is the best tea I have ever had by far. WOW!!!
