Green tea may ease mental distress: Study

Green tea may ease mental distress: Study - L-Theanine the prominent amino acid found in Green Tea was overlooked in this study. Too bad, 125 - 250mg/d are recoginzed as effective in reducing stress and promoting relaxation without causing drowsiness or other side effects. No known contras indicated. I'm a little disapointed but they do acknowledge that this was not a study of constiuents of the nutrient itself but of daily drinking of the tea.

Quality Health doesn't come from a MLM or TV AD

I've been developing natural health products for many years. It never fails that at least once a quarter I get a call from someone looking for the latest, greatest, magic pill for whatever health concern - pick one. While I'm always polite and respectful, deep down I just want to say, "Hey stop trying to make a quick buck off peoples' health". Its no wonder many people have a bad impression of dietary supplements and natural health products, half the industry is full of people who care absolutely nothing about their overall health. That leaves the rest of us who do care, struggling against forces that just shouldn't be there. Here's a big red flag: Do not trust multi-level marketing or slick pre-paid TV programming with your health - your gonna lose; both health & finances. There are trememndous health benefits to be realized through the use of naturals - but there is no magic pill, and doesn't cost an arm and leg. In many cases, using naturals as a part of a preventive health program can be not only affordable, but a hugh cost savings in the long run. Consult a professional in the field, not someone who thinks they have the latest magic pill.
