The recent suggestion that tea may help ward off Alzheimer’s disease is just the latest in a long line of health claims for the brown nectar. Blogrot’s own extensive research reveals a terrific list of health benefits every single time you brew up, which include preventing HIV, tooth decay, infections, arthritis, Parkinson’s disease, heart attacks, stomach cancer, skin cancer, iron build-up and headaches. It also keeps the bones strong and of course let’s not forget about Alzheimer’s. I should be the healthiest man alive!

On the down side, there is no evidence that tea is good for you, and it may cause… erm… tooth decay and Parkinson’s disease.

Research, eh? It’s as much use as a chocolate teapot.
