		<title>Comment on How to Select Green Tea? by rhondascooking</title>

		<description>Green tea, white tea and oolong tea are good for lowering blood pressure.  In fact there have been some studies have shown that if a person consumes at least 20 ounces of green or oolong tea then they have a 65% lower risk of high blood pressure.  The EGCG, the strongest antioxidant in green tea, is responsible for lowering the risk because it blocks salt uptake.  

So, I definitely recommend drinking tea.  However, to really reduce blood pressure you need to decrease the amount of sodium that you are consuming through foods.  Watch for pre-packaged foods, fast foods, cured meats, foods in a brine, as well as salt added to your food.  If you have high blood pressure, definitely consult with your health care provider regarding how much sodium you should consume.  Generally for a person who is not at risk for high blood pressure, they should consume less than 2300mg per day--that&#039;s less than 1 teaspoon of salt!

		<description>What a coincidence I recently wrote on this topic on Teatropolitan. Over time I can say that the most useful infusers turned out to be large tea tongs, they are great in my opinion and i can really recommend them.

If you want to you can take a look at my article http://teatropolitan.wordpress.com/2009/07/14/the-tea-infuser-guide/

All the best!</description>
