Kick the Coffee Habit?
I read an article in InStyle magazine encouraging one to give up coffee.
"N.Y.C. dermatologist Nicholas Perricone claims his patients lose an average of 10 pounds after switching to tea from coffee. 'The acids in coffee raise blood sugar and insulin levels, causing the body to hold on to fat,' says Perricone, noting that polyphenols in green tea have the opposite effect. 'They [help] block the absortion of fat.'"
Is this enough of an incentive to give up coffee?

really? 10 pounds? that seems hard to believe. hm, i've been drinking more green/jasmine tea lately.
i would think people who use milk/cream and sugar in the coffee will see the most change when changing to tea. if that's the case, 10 pounds makes more sense.
are you gonna make the switch?
(can't wait to see you guys!!)
hey, how come my comment didn't show up? hope it works now...
