Prescription: 3 Cups of Tea Daily

This article gave me pause today. I joined a Tea-Of-The-Month Club at work last year and haven't been drinking the wonderful tea samples I get every month. Since this article in the 1/23/2009 Telegraph is extolling the evidence that 3 cups of tea a day can reduce breast cancer risk in women under 50, I might just have to force my tea habit!

Ooooh, but I like this article (in the July 7 2008 Telegraph) better. The chemical resveratrol, found in blueberries, cranberries and peanuts that has a tumor suppression property, is also found in the skin of grapes that make red wine! Red wine fights cancer! I'll just drink tea and red wine all day.
