[QUOTE="pleinster, post: 1005633, member: 221545"] So...I ordered some tea and some capsules. The tea arrived today.18 bags for £8.5, which I figured..if effective...at the rate of a cup a day is not so bad really. After accidently ripping the first one in half opening it (a combination of anticipation and sheer stupidity), I brewed up...not too horrible...surprisingly, my BS fell from 6.5 to 4.9 in 35 minutes.:D Now...while I think that is ridiculously quick, it's not mere coincidence (as I know from my own pattern records). Amazing..but it was back up at 5.9 an hour later, so seems short lived. I dunno if regular use would have an impact that lasted longer, but it's at least good to know that I have something to play with. Tomorrow I plan to drink a cup a couple of hours before my expected steroid spike..n see what happens. I am more interested in the effect of the capsules (I ordered 60 for £4.50 or something)....keen to see what happens. I'll keep you posted. Thanks. ;) Paul [/QUOTE]
