Study suggests that drinking tea regularly can reduce levels of "bad cholesterol". Since Im a southern boy, and thus drink iced tea almost as often as I breathe, i think this is kinda cool.

The study also controlled thier diets during the tests. I wonder how much that had to do with it. I hope its true though since I am a ice tea drinker.

I lift weights three times a week and if the study of iced tea is correct then I will be drinking more of it. I used to drink it alot when I was younger so maybe I will start again. Thanks for the info FC. [Big Grin]

I have been working out since I was 16 to lose weight and stay in shape. I am glad I did and feel great about it. [Smile]

I think the most I had worked out was 5 days a week then down to four, then back to 3. Glad to hear of another workout dude here, but hten again looking like the Hulkster i should have known.......LOL. [Wink]

If "Black" tea works maybe "Dark" beer works too. I drink a lot of that and my cholesterol is fine.
