Cup Of Tea Brightens The Day And The Mind
The title of this post, is the same as that of this press release from Newcastle University.
This is the introductory paragraph.
If you’re enjoying a cup of tea and mince pie this festive season, you may be refreshing more than your palate, as research shows a good brew improves the attention span in those over 85-years-old.
I find this research interesting, mainly because I drink tea in large quantities, at a rate of at least six mugs a day.
But then my family seems to have an unusual drink problem.
- I drink decaffinated builders tea and usually in a day, I’ll also drink two bottles of 0.5 % alcohol beer from Adnams and other soft drinks too!
- My father was the same except that he would have a pint of Adnams a couple of times a week.
- But his father drunk so much, he became an alcoholic and died at forty, well before I was born.
- I also tend to have a mug of tea before I go to bed.
- I’ve always preferred tea to coffee.
- My fifty-year-old son is teetotal, but seems to drink a lot of tea and soft drinks.
As both my father and myself share a skin problem, which is probably related to coelic disease. I think, I sweat a lot of water through my skin, so I need to keep topping it up.
Conclusion
After reading the report from Newcastle University, I think I’ll keep drinking the tea.
