Drink black or green tea. 5 cups a day will do it. My family is living proof. We are tea drinkers and do not fall ill when everyone around us does.


The Chinese are among the worlds top consumers of tea...doesn't seem to be helping them so much.

Perhaps they are now, as the Chinese have become more prosperous.

But ten years ago, when a good friend of mine was working in China, he saw many people drinking hot water because they could not afford tea.

On the other hand, we don't have data for the nontea Chinese drinkers who have SARS.
