coffee/tea

[Guest guest]

hi folks,

i've been addicted to coffee since my 20's when i had an office job.

i'm now 50.

i'm also substantially overwt. and probably obese. (hate that word.).

my husband has also been addicted for at least as long as i have and

he is of normal wt.

i've read that coffee makes you gain wt., tea makes you lose wt.

i've tried switching to tea many times but always go back.

also, i've heard tea has many health benefits, especially for the

arteries.

anyone an expert on this subject?

maybe if i just force myself to switch to tea, no matter what, maybe

i'll lose wt. and will be healthier?

i love kombucha but as i said in another post, it doesn't have enuf

caffeine to get me going in the morning.

anyway, i don't think you're supposed to consume kombucha in large

amounts.

anybody read that article on www.onibasu.com about the 2 women who

died from drinking kombucha? (from mold).

thanks,

laura
