Just recently, I've been feeling really strong desire to have coffee again. The trouble is that there is nice coffee in our office and every time I go into the kitchen I can smell it. Mmmmm. On the other hand, of course, giving it up has been such a benefit to my health that I'm loath to give in to my urges. I wonder if I'd be safe to have a cup a day in summer...

The winter before last, when I was drinking 5 or 6 cups of tea a day I got a cold about every 3 weeks. I'd get rid of one, have maybe a week off and then get another one. Last winter I got a horrible cold at the start of September and read an article in New Scientist about how caffiene was an immune supressant so I decided to give it up. I have had one cold since then.

Interesting. Maybe I need to switch permanently to decaf tea. Most of the rest of tea is good for me!

I balance the coffee with fresh orange juice

But then my immune system is pretty solid. I also probably only take 2-3 cups a day, all the rest of the time I'm on waffy herbals.
