Many folk cures which have been around for centuries may be more therapeutic than previously

suspected A case in point is that of penicillin Alexander Fleming did not just randomly choose cheese molds to study when he discovered this very important bacteria-killing substance Moldy cheese was frequently given to patients as a remedy for illness at one time Fleming just isolated what it was about the cheese which cured the patients

In parts of South America, a powder obtained from grinding sugar cane is used for healing infections

in wounds and ulcers This usage may date back to pre-Colombian times Experiments carried out on several hundred patients indicate that ordinary sugar in high concentrations is lethal to bacteria Its

suction effect eliminates dead cells and it generates a glasslike layer which protects the wound and

ensures healing

Another example of folk medicine which scientists are investigating is that of Arab fishermen who rub their wounds with a venomous catfish to quicken healing This catfish excretes a gellike slime which scientist found to contain antibiotics coagulant that helps close injured blood vessels, anti-inflammatory agents, and a chemical that directs production of a glue-like material that aids healing

It is hoped that by documenting these folk remedies and experimenting to see if results are indeed beneficial,

an analysis of the substance be made, and synthetic substances be developed for human consumption

Ranked as the number one beverage consumed worldwide, tea takes the lead over coffee in both popularity and production with more than 5 million metric tons of tea produced annually Although much of this tea is consumed in Asian, European, and African countries, the United States drinks its fair share According to estimates by the Tea Council of the United States, tea is enjoyed by no less than half of the U.S population on any given day Black tea or green tea – iced, spiced, or instant – tea drinking has spurred a billion-dollar business with major tea producers in Africa and South America and throughout Asia

Tea is made from the leaves of an evergreen plant, Camellia sinensis, which grows tall and lush in tropical regions On tea plantation, the plant is kept trimmed to approximately four feet high and as new

buds called flush appear, they are plucked off by hand Even in today’s world of modern agricultural

machinery, hand harvesting continues to be the preferred method Ideally, only the top two leaves and a bud should be picked This new growth produces the highest quality tea

After being harvested, tea leaves are laid out on long drying racks, called withering racks, for 18 to

20 hours During this process, the tea softens and becomes limp Next, depending on the type of tea being produced, the leaves may be crushed or chopped to release flavor, and then fermented under controlled conditions of heat and humidity For green tea, the whole leaves are often steamed to retain their green color, and the fermentation process is skipped Producing black teas requires fermentation during which the tea leaves begin to darken After fermentation, black tea is dried in vats to produce its rich brown or black color

No one knows when or how tea became popular, but legend has it that tea as a beverage was discovered in 2737 B.C by Emperor Shen Nung of China when leaves from a Camellia dropped into his drinking water as it was boiling over a fire As the story goes, Emperor Shen Nung drank the resulting liquid and proclaimed the drink to be most nourishing and refreshing Though this account cannot be

documented, it is thought that tea drinking probably originated in China and spread to other parts of

Asia, then to Europe, and ultimately to America colonies around 1650

With about half the caffeine content as coffee, tea is often chosen by those who want to reduce, but
