Transcript

If you do prefer black tea, though, which is healthier, plain black tea, or Earl Gray?
The answer is Earl Gray, which has the added benefit of bergamot oil, the source of bergamottin, a phytonutrient that beat out two dozen other phytonutrients last year in a test of human stomach lining protection.

    I have been a vegan for 4-1/2 months. My main health issues have been gout, which I have taken meds for for over 4 years, and also ED.I still take the gout meds, and my condition has worsened. I still have ED where pills no longer work. Remedies for gout say to stay away from dark green vegies,i.e.broccoli, spinich,etc. These are high in purine. I have been told that once the fat leaves my body, the high purine vegies will not cause a problem. I have lost 31#, with about another 10 to go. Will I be getting relief from either gout or ED?
